Difference between Attenuation and Seismic wave

Attenuation vs. Seismic wave

In physics, attenuation or, in some contexts, extinction is the gradual loss of flux intensity through a medium. Seismic waves are waves of energy that travel through the Earth's layers, and are a result of earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, magma movement, large landslides and large man-made explosions that give out low-frequency acoustic energy.

Similarities between Attenuation and Seismic wave

Attenuation and Seismic wave have 5 things in common (in Unionpedia): Earth, Earthquake, Energy, Hypocenter, Light.

Earth

Earth is the third planet from the Sun and the only astronomical object known to harbor life.

Earthquake

An earthquake (also known as a quake, tremor or temblor) is the shaking of the surface of the Earth, resulting from the sudden release of energy in the Earth's lithosphere that creates seismic waves.

Energy

In physics, energy is the quantitative property that must be transferred to an object in order to perform work on, or to heat, the object.

Hypocenter

A hypocenter (or hypocentre) (from ὑπόκεντρον for 'below the center') is the point of origin of an earthquake or a subsurface nuclear explosion.
