GEOL 240Lg 1st Edition Lecture 12 Outline of Last Lecture I The Formula frequency II What is Frequency III What drives ocean waves IV Seismic Waves V Elasticity VI What is Distortion VII Yield Stress and Normal Stress Outline Current Lecture 1 Continuation of waves 2 Drawings of waves to offer a better explanation Current Lecture For earthquakes within 100km sheer waves are more disastrous more energy polarization wave splits into 2 waves traveling in the same direction These notes represent a detailed interpretation of the professor s lecture GradeBuddy is best used as a supplement to your own notes not as a substitute elasticity drives waves love waves Show waves trapped in the crust by total internal reflection nuclear test ban treaty explosions tend to be mostly P waves earthquakes are much most rich in sheer waves Waves when going slow material into fast waves or toy car will refract so they are traveling more parallel to the interface in the fast material Surface waves Rayleigh waves love waves At some critical angle of incidence ic waves will refract parallel to the interface These waves are now trapped in the slow layer
