Calibrate 16 types of RTDs, and 13 types of thermocouples with our handheld multifunction process calibrator. Multifunction Process Calibrators Our multifunction process calibrators read and source RTD, thermocouple, current, voltage, frequency, and resistance to calibrate or verify your process sensors.
Body waves can travel through the earth's inner layers, but surface waves can only move along the surface of the planet like ripples on water. Earthquakes radiate seismic energy as both body and surface waves. Body Waves The first kind of body wave is the P wave or primary wave. This is the fastest kind of seismic wave. The P wave can move through solid rock and fluids, like water or the liquid layers of the earth. It pushes and pulls the rock it moves through just like sound waves push and pull the air.
Body waves. Body waves are of two types: compressional or primary (P) waves and shear or secondary (S) waves. P-and S-waves are called body waves because they can travel through the interior of a body such as the Earth's inner layers, from the focus of an earthquake to distant points on the surface.he seismic waves created as they move from the epicentre an earthquake vary. What is amazing is how fast they can travel: up to 2 miles per second in granite! Seismic waves can be classified into two basic types: body waves which travel through the Earth and surface waves, which travel along the Earth's surface.
