Wave A is the S-wave Because the velocity starts at 4 and it reflects at 2‚900 km. also known as the outer core. Wave B is the P-wave because the velocity starts at 8 and it refracts at 2‚900 km. and it refracts at 5‚100 km. also known as the inner core. The mantle starts at 1‚800 km. because wave A and wave B both refract at that point and the outer core starts at 2‚900 km. because wave A reflects from that point and wave B refracts at that point. So the boundary from the mantle to the outer core

Sound of Waves Commentary In this passage‚ found on pages 135 and 136 of The Sound of Waves‚ author Yukio Mishima utilizes brutal imagery through descriptive diction to expose the subtle sexism apparent on this island. Furthermore‚ he provides commentary on gender roles and stereotypes‚ which are apparent not only in his own life‚ but on the island of Uta-jima as well. Gender roles become apparent as the novel progresses because Shinji is looking for a woman of beauty rather than of intellect

Mechanical Waves Background Mechanical waves are waves which require a medium for propagation since energy is transferred via the motion of the medium. An example of a mechanical wave is sound. Transverse waves are waves which vibrate perpendicular to their direction of propagation. Surface water waves can be classified as a transverse wave. All electromagnetic waves are also examples of transverse waves. A longitudinal wave is a wave in which its particles vibrate parallel to their direction of

Select the five facts about tsunamis that were the most interesting or surprising to you. Make a list of your facts. 1. A tsunami is made up of a series of traveling ocean waves of extremely long wavelength. 2. They are triggered by earthquakes and undersea volcanic eruptions and deep sea landslides. 3. The wave shape changes and the height increases as it approaches the coastline. 4. Far field tsunamis have a long travel time so it is easier to predict their effects. 5. Near field

the friction of the jagged edges of the fault and it unsticks‚ all that stored up energy is released. The energy radiates outward from the fault in all directions in the form of seismic waves like ripples on a pond but much more violent. The seismic waves shake the earth as they move through it‚ and when the waves reach the earth’s surface‚ they shake the ground and anything on it‚ like our houses and workplaces. The tool that scientists use to record and measure earthquakes is called

The third-wave feminists are critical to the first and second waves because it ties all of the women’s movements previous accomplishments to all women‚ regardless of race‚ color‚ sexual orientation‚ and class. Without the third-wave feminists only white women would have the luxury of being able to vote‚ being provided equal employment opportunity‚ being heard when faced with sexual harassment and marital rape‚ and being able to broadcast the discrimination of gender.

Whilst some showed complete resistance‚ others were heavily manipulated as they were susceptible due to personality traits and weaknesses. The author presented the Wave as a ‘powerful motivator’ that manipulated many susceptible members; who easily fell into its trap; like Robert Billings‚ who had personality weaknesses such as lack of confidence‚ poor social life or other comradery issues.
