How are radio waves formed?
How are radio waves formed?
How berms are formed?
formed by the deposition of sediment by storm waves.
What are P and S waves also called?
In seismology, a P-wave is a primary wave, or sometimes a pressure wave. In general, the primary wave is the fastest moving seismic wave, as it is the first to reach any detector (seismometer) set up to sense them. Use the link below for more information.
What earthquakes travel through the earth's mantle?
Primary waves and secondary waves (body waves). Love waves and rayleigh waves (surface waves) do not travel through the earth's mantle. Though secondary waves do not go through liquids, the asthenosphere is only a semi-liquid, so secondary waves can still go through it.
Which layers can S-waves travel through?
s-waves travel through solids only
When waves cut completly through a headland what is formed?
When waves cut completely through a headland, a feature called a sea cave is formed. Sea caves are formed by the relentless erosion of waves gradually wearing away the weaker rock layers of a headland. Over time, the waves create openings and cavities that can extend deep into the headland.
What forms when waves cut completely through a headland?
A Sandbar
What type of seismic waves cannot travel through water?
Secondary waves cannot travel through anything that is completely liquid
Do sandbars are formed through erosion by waves?
Yes, that is very much true.
How are radio waves formed?
How are radio waves formed?
Water waves are longitudial waves?
Waves formed on the surface of water are transverse in nature. But sound waves when propagated through water medium then that will be in longitudinal nature. Cannot be seen on the surface.
How is surf formed?
A surf is formed when the waves get to high and cause waves to "break."
What tpyes of materials can the three waves move through?
Primary Wave can move through solids, liquids, and gases.Primary waves are formed due to the property of materials that they respond to compressional stress. As all materials(solids, liquids and gases) respond to compressional stress, primary waves can move through all phases.Secondary Wave can move through solids, but NOT liquids and gases.Secondary waves are formed due to the property of materials responding to shear stress. As fluids do not respond to shear stress, secondary wave does not move through fluids.Surface Waves move through solids along the boundary of two layers.
Which wave type is formed when the waves reach the Earths surface?
L waves are formed when P&S waves reach the surface.
Why circular waves are formed in water?
transverse waves
How do waves affect coastal landforms?
the familiar waves we spot at the beach are often caused by wind.waves are also formed through tectonic activity.the ocean floor can cause the bottom of waves to slow down.
How berms are formed?
formed by the deposition of sediment by storm waves.
