Question
- what type(s) of wave travels through the outer core? 1 point primary wave secondary wave surface wave primary and secondary wave primary, secondary, and surface wave other: 16. what type(s) of wave is known as p - wave? 1 point primary wave secondary wave surface wave primary and secondary wave primary, secondary, and surface wave
Brief Explanations
For question 15: The Earth's outer core is liquid, and only primary (P) waves can travel through liquid materials; secondary (S) waves cannot pass through liquids, and surface waves only travel along the Earth's surface.
For question 16: P-wave is the standard abbreviation for Primary Wave, which is a compressional body wave that travels through solids, liquids, and gases.
