I've thought of an epic signature and this space is too small to fit it. As of now, here are my events:

Crave the Wave(-)

Re: Crave The Wave B
Since the asker has not returned to confirm the accuracy of your answer and it seems like you are correct, feel free to ask a question.Ant-on-knee wrote:Seismic... so Fastest to Slowest: P,S,Love,Rayleigh(including Stoneley which is high a Amplitute Rayleigh wave I believe)Magikarpmaster629 wrote:Name the order of speeds for the four main seismic waves.
Source: "P-waves are the first waves to arrive on a complete record of ground shaking because they travel the fastest"
"Secondary, or S waves, travel slower than P waves"
"Rayleigh waves are the slowest of all the seismic wave types and in some ways the most complicated"

Re: Crave The Wave B
Alright, I wish I had a better question to ask, but I just want to get this marathon rolling, so:
What is the Doppler effect?

Re: Crave The Wave B
The Doppler effect is the apparent change in the frequency of a wave due to the relative movement of the source.

Re: Crave The Wave B
A beam of light enters a medium, polarizing to some degree. The beams then leave the medium and change direction again, so you have two split parallel beams of light.
