An example, the waves at the surface of water and air (ocean surface waves), or ripples in the sand at the interface with water or air. Another example is internal waves, which can be transmitted along the interface of two water masses of different densities

What are the three diffrent kinds of seismic waves?
The three types of earthquake waves are the Primary wave the Secondary wave and the surface or Long wave
How do waves get there energy?
Oceanic waves are produced by the shearing action of the wind blowing above the surface of the water body.
Waves that travel at the surface such as Raleigh and long waves?
surface waves, raleigh waves, and long waves.
What are the two types of seismic surface waves?
body waves and surface waves
What 2 waves are surface waves?
Love waves and Rayleigh waves are surface waves
Which are more destructive body waves or surface waves?
Surface waves.
When do P waves arrive at the surface in relation to S waves?
when the P waves arrive at the surface in relation to s waves and surface waves is called the promary waves.
When a raindrop hits the surface of a lake circular surface waves form What is true about these surface waves?
The surface waves cannot be classified as transverse or longitudinal waves.
What is the reason that surface waves usually cause the most damage?
Surface waves (L and R waves) have both higher amplitudes and lower frequencies than body waves, and these low frequencies often match the resonant frequencies of man-made structures
Where do surface waves occur?
surface waves occur on the surface its visible to people and people can surface
What are the three seismic waves in order?
The three types of seismic waves are: P waves S waves Surface waves ( two surface waves. Riley surface wave and love surface wave named after scientists
What type of seismic waves that arrive at the surface first?
Those are the P-waves, which are the fastest and weakest.
