How do S and P waves move through a solid material?

Chemistry
1 answer:
abruzzese [7]3 years ago
6 0

P waves move quickly and S waves move slowly through solids,

Explanation:

S and P waves can move through a solid material. P waves generally moves quickly and S-waves move slowly through solids.

S and P waves elastic seismic waves.

  • P waves are primary waves travels through any material medium. They move faster than S-waves.
  • S waves are secondary waves that moves through solid only. They are shear waves.
  • They cannot move through liquids and gases because these materials cannot be sheared.

At a seismic station, P waves arrives first because they have a higher velocity

Look at the following enthalpy diagram. Select all that apply.
Drupady [299]

Answer:

Option 2 and 4 are correct

Explanation:

The reactants in the attached image have more enthalpy and hence less stability as they are more reactive. Thus, Product is more stable than the reactants.

This is an addition reaction in which two reactants add up to form the product.

Very less activation energy is required as the reactants themselves are unstable, possess high energy and hence are very reactive.

Reactants have more energy than the products.

Metals give up electrons to become cation or anion
galina1969 [7]
Metals usually become cations since electrons are negatively charged and when they are lost there are more protons than electrons making a positive net charge in the atom.  (cations are positively charged ions while anions are negatively charged ions)

I hope this helps.  Let me know if anything is unclear.
