You can't answer this question because you aren't giving the specific type of seismic waves. There is an s-wave a p-wave and an l-wave. Those are the basic waves. An S-wave cannot travel through a liquid at all. So, obviously it travels slower than any other seismic wave. 


<span>It would travel faster because their speed depends on the density and composition of material that they pass through.</span>

Why society might initially reject a new scientific theory?
Irina18 [472]

I was about to say:  because people generally get comfortable with
what they think they know, and don't like the discomfort of being told
that they have to change something they're comfortable with.

But then I thought about it a little bit more, and I have a different answer.

"Society" might initially reject a new scientific theory, because 'society'
is totally unequipped to render judgement of any kind regarding any
development in Science. 

First of all, 'Society' is a thing that's made of a bunch of people, so it's
inherently unequipped to deal with scientific news.  Anything that 'Society'
decides has a lot of the mob psychology in it, and a public opinion poll or
a popularity contest are terrible ways to evaluate a scientific discovery.

Second, let's face it.  The main ingredient that comprises 'Society' ... people ...
are generally uneducated, unknowledgeable, unqualified, and clueless in the
substance, the history, and the methods of scientific inquiry and reporting.

There may be very good reasons that some particular a new scientific theory
should be rejected, or at least seriously questioned.  But believe me, 'Society'
doesn't have them.

That's pretty much why.

Answer:

Decreases/Reduces

Explanation:

Fill in the blank:

Consider the equation Work = Force X Distance.

<em>If a machine  increases the distance over which a force is exerted, the force </em>

<em>required to do a given amount of work</em> .........

If the work is a constant value, then by isolating force from the equation, we get:

Force = Work / Distance

By increasing the value of the Distance, then the quotient Work. Distance diminishes, and therefore the required force decreases (diminishes, reduces)

Answer: Decreases/Reduces
