In order to measure a wave, you need...
At least 3 people
Flat topography
The survey to be eco-friendly
The waves to be strong enough for them to be detected
Definition of a P waves
Propagate by pure shear strain in direction perpendicular to travel
Propagate by compression and dilatational strain in direction of travel
The particle motion is elliptical in a plane perpendicular to the surface in the direction of travel
The particle motion is parallel to boundary and perpendicular to direction of energy propagation
True or false, Rayleigh waves are faster than Love waves.
True
False
