What are earthquake waves that compress and the ground like an accordion?
P waves
Waves that can make the ground roll like ocean waves they usually cause the most damage during an earthquake?
These are known as seismic surface waves. They travel along the Earth's surface and cause the ground to move in a rolling motion. They are responsible for the most damage during an earthquake as they can generate strong shaking and displacement of structures.
Which seismic waves make the ground roll like ocean waves?
Surface waves, specifically Love and Rayleigh waves, are responsible for creating the rolling motion in the ground during an earthquake. These waves travel along the surface of the Earth and can cause buildings and structures to sway back and forth, similar to ocean waves.
What kind of movements is produced by each of the three types of seismic waves?
P waves - compress and expand the ground like a Accordion S waves - vibrate from side to side as well as up and down Surface waves - make the ground roll like ocean waves The Earthquake is produced by each of the three types of seismic waves.
What kind of movement is produced by each type of the three seismic waves?
P waves - compress and expand the ground like a accordion S waves - vibrate from side to side as well as up and down Surface waves - make the ground roll like ocean waves The Earthquake is produced by each of the three types of seismic waves.
What type of waves can make the ground roll like ocean waves?
Primary waves
What waves have a motion that is similar to that of ocean waves?
Seismic waves, also known as ground waves, have a motion similar to ocean waves. They travel through the earth's crust and can cause the ground to shake, much like how ocean waves cause the water to move.
What kind of movement is produced by each of the three types of seismic waves?
P waves - compress and expand the ground like a Accordion S waves - vibrate from side to side as well as up and down Surface waves - make the ground roll like ocean waves The Earthquake is produced by each of the three types of seismic waves.
What type of seismic wave can make the ground roll like ocean waves?
Surface waves can cause the ground to roll like ocean waves. Surface waves are a type of seismic wave that travel along the Earth's surface and have a more pronounced effect on buildings and structures compared to other types of seismic waves.
Why does tidal waves occur?
It happens due to the shifting of the earths plates.. Jus like a earthquake but it happens in the ocean!
What waves cause most damage to the built environment during an earthquake?
Seismic waves, specifically surface waves like Love waves and Rayleigh waves, can cause the most damage to the built environment during an earthquake. These waves travel along the earth's surface and have longer periods, resulting in strong ground shaking that can lead to structural damage and ground failure.
How are earthquake seismic waves similar to thunder and lighting?
it is a wave of Devansh Earthquakes move through the ground in waves, much like how thunder does through air.
