Answer:

B. P waves can travel through liquids

Explanation:

P waves or primary waves are elastic waves produced from an earthquake. They are the first waves that arrives a Seismic station when an earthquake disturbs the earth.

P and S waves are both body waves that moves within the earth.

P- waves travel faster than S- waves and can propagate through any medium. S-waves or Secondary waves are shear waves that can only propagate through soilds.

Both waves are longitudinal and moves parallel to their source of propagation. They move by disturbing other particles in their line.

Transverse waves are the love and rayleigh waves. They are both surface waves that travels and cause disturbance on the surface of the earth during an earthquake. They move up and down.

Relacione rios de planalto com potêncial hidrelétrico
Furkat [3]

Answer: I'm not sure if you wanted your answer in or Portuguese so I attached both.

Explanation:

<u>English</u>:

Water is collected in dams that have potential energy in hydroelectric power plants. When one's height rises, so does their potential energy. The potential energy of water increases as the plateaus rise in height, and more electricity is produced. As a result, plateaus are ideal for producing hydroelectric power.

<u>Portuguese</u>:

A água é captada em barragens que possuem potencial energético em usinas hidrelétricas. Quando a altura de uma pessoa aumenta, também aumenta sua energia potencial. A energia potencial da água aumenta à medida que os planaltos aumentam de altura e mais eletricidade é produzida. Como resultado, os planaltos são ideais para a produção de energia hidrelétrica.
