Question
2 what do earthquake waves have in common with other waves? a they travel at the same speed as light waves b they carry the same amount of energy as sound waves c they bend when they travel through different materials d they have the same wavelength as radio waves
Earthquake waves (seismic waves) are mechanical waves. All waves (including light waves, sound waves, radio waves, etc.) can refract (bend) when traveling through different materials. Light waves travel at a much higher speed than earthquake waves. The energy carried by earthquake waves and sound waves can vary greatly. The wavelength of earthquake waves and radio waves is also different.
