Terrestrial planets
Explanation:
There are two types of planets:
- The inner planets or terrestrial planets
- The outer planets or Jovian planets.
The outer planets are gas giants and are made of huge mounds of gases. These planets are Jupiter, Neptune, Uranus and Saturn. They all have satellites revolving round them.
The terrestrial planets are small rock masses. They are mercury, venus, earth and mars. Earth has one satellites and Mars has two satellites.
The asteroid belt seperates the Jovian and terrestrial planets. Beyond the Jovian planets lies the Kuiper Belt Objects or KBOs.
Stalactites are the ones that hang down from the ceiling in a cave..
Earthquakes produce P and S waves. The P waves are fast and of a higher frequency than S waves. P waves reach a point first and can pass through liquid media while S waves reach after and the lose much of their energy while passing liquid media. This is because S-waves are shear waves and require rigid/inelastic media for transmission.
During an earthquake, there is usually a shadow zone (where there is no destruction because S-waves did not reach) formed right above the epicenter of the earthquake. This is due to the fact that the S-waves were unable to transit through the liquid inner core of the earth before reaching the earth's surface. Only P-waves are registered in this shadow zone.
