<span>A body wave is a seismic wave that moves through the interior of the earth, as opposed to surface waves that travel near the earth's surface.
P and S waves are body waves. Each type of wave shakes the ground in different ways</span>
Using geometrical arguments, we can see that the angle of the inclined plane

is equal to the angle between Fg and the perpendicular force.
But the perpendicular force is the projection of Fg along the perpendicular axis, and Fg=mg, so the correct answer is
<span>C) F=mg cosΘ </span>
<em>Newton's second law of motion can be formally stated as follows: The acceleration of an object as produced by a net force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force, in the same direction as the net force, and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.</em>
