Another word for seismic waves that characterizes the way they move?
P-Waves (Primary Waves) S-Waves (Secondary Waves) Surface Waves
What happens when the objects in the way of the waves move?
When objects in the way of waves move, the waves can be blocked or absorbed by the objects. This can cause the waves to change direction, scatter, or reflect off the moving objects. The movement of the objects can also affect the amplitude and wavelength of the waves.
What are the two types of surface wave?
The three types of seismic waves are:P waves, S waves, and Surface waves
What are the parts of surface wave?
Surface waves consist of two main types: Rayleigh waves and Love waves. Rayleigh waves move in an elliptical motion with both vertical and horizontal components, causing ground particles to move in an elliptical path. Love waves, on the other hand, only have horizontal motion and do not involve vertical movement of the ground particles.
All differences between love and rayleigh waves?
Love waves are surface waves that move in a horizontal, side-to-side motion, while Rayleigh waves have a rolling motion that combines both vertical and horizontal movement. Rayleigh waves travel slower than Love waves and are more destructive in causing ground movement during an earthquake. Love waves only travel on the surface, while Rayleigh waves travel both on the surface and through the interior of the Earth.

Which type of earthquakes waves move the slowest?
The surface waves (composed in turn of the Rayleigh and Love waves) are the slowest seismic waves.

When waves hit you whch way do you move?
you dont move beause all waves are too light or they are all coming at different directions
What are the subtypes of secondary waves?
The subtypes of secondary waves (S-waves) are Love waves and Rayleigh waves. Love waves cause horizontal movement, while Rayleigh waves cause both horizontal and vertical movement. Both types of waves are surface waves that move along the Earth's crust.
Do p waves or surface waves move faster?
No. Surface waves are slower than both P and S-waves.
Why does the moon makes the waves?
the moon makes the waves move with gravitation. the moon pulls all the waves to come it's way using gravitation. and the other reason why the waves move is because the wind blows the waves. Natalie w.

What does undulate mean?
Undulate- to move in waves or in a way manner (VB)
What Vibrations that move through the ground carrying the energy released during an earthquake are called .?
These are known as seismic waves - of which there are 4 types; P-waves, S-waves and Love and Rayleigh waves.
What are p-waves also known as?
P-waves and primary waves are the same thing. They may also be known as pressure waves (or compression waves) due to their mode of propagation, the way they move through the Earth.
