What is accurate about seismic waves moving through the Earth? Group of answer choices P-waves (also called push-waves or sound

waves) move through all liquids except Diet Pepsi, and s-waves (also called shear-waves) move through no liquids except Diet Pepsi. P-waves (also called push-waves or sound waves) move through solids, but s-waves (also called shear waves) don’t. S-waves (also called shear-waves) and p-waves (also called push-waves or sound waves) both move through both liquids and solids. P-waves (also called push-waves or sound waves) move through liquids, but s-waves (also called shear waves) don’t. Neither S-waves (also called shear-waves) nor p-waves (also called push-waves or sound waves) move through liquids.

Answer:

Option (4)

Explanation:

Seismic P and S waves are generated during an earthquake that has the potential to propagate through the interior of the earth. P waves are also known as the primary waves and they move in a compression and extension way in their direction of propagation. S waves are shear waves. This P waves travel faster than the S waves and can travel in both solid as well as in liquid. Whereas the S wave can travel only through solids. They get absorbed when they reach the core-mantle boundary. These two waves are helpful in determining the epicenter of an earthquake by recording the arrival of these waves.

Hence, the correct answer is option (4).

In the mid-twentieth century and corroborated ever since, researchers dredging the seafloor could not find any materials older than 180 million years.

<h3>What do you understand by seafloor ?</h3>

The surface of an ocean or sea: seafloor According to this theory, the Earth's crust is divided into a number of enormous plates that together form the continents and ocean floors and are supported by a warm, plastic "mantle" beneath the surface. Mr. Walter Sullivan

Deposits of common minerals like copper, zinc, nickel, gold, silver, and phosphorus can be found on the seafloor. These deposits are nodules on silt from the abyssal plain that are typically 3 to 10 centimeters (1 to 4 inches) in diameter and appear as crusts on volcanic and other rocks.
