None of the above
The average velocity of a seismic wave traveling through the mantle
6 km/sec
6km/sec^3
8 km/sec
8 km/sec^3
What lies between 105-140 degrees
Mantle-core boundary
S Shadow Zone
P Shadow Zone
Inner core
P Shadow Zones exist due to
P Waves not being able to pass through liquids
S waves not being able to pass through the core
P waves refracting in the core
S Waves refracting the core
S Shadow Zones are formed due to the
P waves refracting
S Waves refracting
The core
Mantle
Which one makes the most sense
Faster P Wave-warmer material-blue green
Slower P wave- warmer material- blue green
Slower p wave - warmer material - blue green
Faster p wave - cooler material- red
