Answer:

Body waves can travel through the Earth's inner layers, but surface waves can only move along the surface of the planet like ripples on water. Earthquakes send out seismic energy as both body and surface waves. The body waves (P and S) and surface waves recorded by a seismometer.

All credit goes to Michigan Technological University.

Highly recommend that you change the wording on that.

Distances for latitude are in _____ degrees or _____ of the equator.

Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

Distances for latitude are North degrees or South of the Equator.

Explanation:

Latitudinal lines are imaginary lines created by humans to serve their needs. These lines run from east to west as closed lines, or rather circles. Their starting point is the Equator which marks the middle part of Earth, and they spread from it in a northern and southern direction until the poles.

The Equator is at 0 degrees of latitude, and as mentioned it is the starting point for measuring all of the other latitudinal lines. There are latitudinal lines that stretch until 90 degrees North and 90 degrees South. The purpose of these lines is to help in orientation and to help with the absolute location of any place on Earth (in combination with the longitudianl lines). Also, they are very good in roughly representing the climate zones on Earth, the amount of sunlight a place gets, and dividing the globe into Northern and Southern Hemispheres.

1. what causes the phases of the moon? 2. why does the planet Venus show phases similar to those of the moon? 3.How do eclipses

Mama L [17]

Answer:

As given as under.

Explanation:

1. The phases of the moon are caused due to the earth's rotations on its axis and the moon rotation around the earth in its elliptical orbit. Certain phases f the moon are caused due to the sun and moon positions about that of the earth on the full moon, new moon and half-moon days. Most of the time we see the same face of the moon.

2. Planet venus show similar properties to that of the moon as both the moon and venus have are made up of same gem material like earth and being a terrestrial planet the venus and both revolve on in the same opposite direction of the earth thus earth sees the same phase of the venus as in the moon.

3. A solar eclipse occurs when the moon blocks the rays id sun and a ring-shaped formations take place when the earth comes in way of the or between the moon and sun the shadows of the earth fall on the moon and hence lunar eclipse takes place.

4. The north star also called the Polaris star seems to change its position for the southern hemisphere, but as for the northern hemisphere, it remains the same as being the north star the equatorial belt the star remains or shows the same side. Due to the rotation and axial tilt of the earth.

5. The cause of sunrise and sunset is mainly due to the sun and the earth's movement around the horizon in the opposite direction and there is 12 hours gap.

It will emit Red because it is moving towards (which creates heat) instead of away (which is blue and cooler).
