What happens to P waves and S waves at a depth of 2.500 km?

Physics
1 answer:
LenKa [72]3 years ago
6 0

P-waves pass through both mantle and core, but are slowed and refracted at the mantle / core boundary at a depth of 2900 km. S-waves passing from the mantle to the core are absorbed because shear waves cannot be transmitted through liquids. ... The core has a radius of 3470 km.

Which of these is the movement of material cause by the interaction between worm and cool material?
mr Goodwill [35]
Convection Current  
This happens when there is a noteworthy contrast in temperature between two sections of a liquid. At the point when this temperature distinction exists, hot liquids rise and cool liquids sink, and after that streams, or developments, are made in the liquid

If you wanted the pitch of a horn to drop relative to an observer, which way would you move the horn, relative to where that obs
Vladimir [108]
We assume that horn releases sound of constant frequency. In order for observer to observe different frequency either horn or observer or both must move.

This happens due to Doppler effect. It states that when position of source of sound and observer relative to each other changes, the observed frequency also changes. If the source emits sound of constant frequency than observed frequency will be either higher or lower than original.

When distance between source and observer increases the observed frequency will be lower. This is because same number of sound waves must cover greater distance so they have greater wavelength.
When distance between source and observer decreases the observed frequency will be higher. This is because same number of sound waves must cover smaller distance so they have smaller wavelength. 

Wavelength and frequency are inversely proportional meaning when one increases the other drecreases.

From this explanation we can find answer for our question. <span>If we wanted the pitch of a horn to drop relative to an observer we need to move horn away from an observer.</span>

1. why is<br> experimentation so important to science
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer: to provide evidence to a theory

Explanation: Experimentation allows for multiple trials to provide evidence to a scientific theory. Without experimentation there would be no data to back up your hypothesis.
