Compressional or P (for primary) , Transverse or S (for secondary) , Love, and Rayleigh. Primary waves push and pull the ground in the direction the wave is traveling. Secondary waves travel in the same direction, but they shake the ground back and forth perpendicular to the direction the wave is traveling. Love waves move back and forth horizontally. Rayleigh waves cause both vertical and horizontal ground motion.

The United States is a nation -state. How would you respond to this comment? One response should provide evidence to support the
IrinaVladis [17]

Support:

I agree with this comment. The United States is a nation, whether people like it or not. We have to work together against other nations in order to survive. The state that is saying this comment also agrees with it since it knows it has other states it has to work with. We can achieve goals easier and faster if we all communicate together as a nation.


Refute:

The United States is not a nation. We have wars and fight with each other. We are enemies and we must work alone as states. We must prepare for fight with other states in this country and we must prepare to win. If we work together as a nation, we could all win and that would not be the goal. We want to be the top and not let others rise with us.



Hope this helps! I wrote this on my own, so it is based on my opinion. It still answers the question though! Thanks for posting! :)

Describe the position of the sun when an equinox is experienced​
damaskus [11]

Answer:

At the equator, the sun is directly overhead at noon on these two equinoxes. The "nearly" equal hours of day and night is due to refraction of sunlight or a bending of the light's rays that causes the sun to appear above the horizon when the actual position of the sun is below the horizon.

Hope this helps!!!

Have a blessed day:)

Love you alllllll
