<h2>Answer: D. Rayleigh wave
</h2>
Rayleigh waves are a type of surface acoustic wave that causes particles on the surface of solids to travel along an elliptical path in the vertical plane that contains the direction of wave propagation.
These waves include longitudinal (P wave) and transverse (S wave) movements whose amplitude decreases exponentially as the distance from the surface increases.
This means Rayleigh waves are generated by the interference between the P and S waves on the surface of the Earth.
Oceanic Crust
Continental Crust
Oceanic crust is denser than continental, this is why continents are at higher elevation than oceans.
Yes, as the earth gets closer it gets warmer and as the sun gets further it gets colder
