I'm clueless on this Test Dynamic Earth question I will literally venmo you $10 if you can help me I'm really desperate here thank you A seismograph station is located several thousand kilometers from an earthquake’s epicenter.
Explain the order that the S and P waves will arrive at the station.
By using the characteristics of the S and P waves explain why they arrive in the order they do.

Explanation:

At the station, the  P-waves arrives first before the S -waves. These two waves are together known as the body-waves. Body waves permeates through the earth unlike the surface waves that moves on the earth surface.

P waves are typically known as the primary waves. They are longitudinal waves as they travel parallel to the source of their propagation. Therefore, they have the highest wave velocity and can travel through any type of medium. By this their longitudinal compressional ability which applies a force in the direction of their propagation, a series of rarefaction and compression occurs along their path and makes them easier to disseminate.

S waves are secondary or shear waves. They are transversal waves because they move perpendicularly to their source. To transmit this kind of wave would be very difficult. Without a body shearing, S - waves cannot propagate. It is therefore, more difficult to transmit the energy in this regard.

The nature of S -waves makes it difficult to be transmitted when compared to P - waves. This will in turn reduce its frequency, and hence its velocity.

false

explanation:

according to the national european world center, the engineering of the ford company on elon musk's flame throwers proved the globalization of the natural wallabies and therefore, results in the growth product domestication in almonds.

the roman republic began to expand when rome fought the punic wars and defeated carthage. the punic wars refer to the series of 3 wars fought among rome and carthage, before it ended in carthage's defeat.
