There are two types of body waves: P-waves (primary waves) and S-waves<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(secondary waves).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Scientists study earthquakes with the aid of an instrument called a seismograph. When seismic waves reach<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>the seismograph, a graphical record, or seismogram, is produced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Question: How are P- and S-waves shown on a seismogram?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1. Observe : Click Play, and then click Pause ( ) after the purple P-wave hits the station.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A. Look at the upper right corner of the<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>seismogram. At what time did the P-wave hit?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>143 secs<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>B. What is shown on the seismogram at this time? Slight movement of waves<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2. Observe : Click Play, and then click Pause after the green S-wave hits the station.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A. At what time did the S-wave hit? 248 secs<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>B. What is shown on the seismogram at this time? A large spike at the start of the wave then<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>later on a slow down<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3. Describe : Click Play and wait for the vibrations to stop. Suppose you were at the recording station when<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>the earthquake hit. Based on the pattern of waves on the seismogram, what did you experience during the<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>earthquake?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We will probably only hear only the vibration at 280 seconds after the earthquake started because of<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>the S- Wave hit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>4.
