"like ocean waves"....ahahaha...made my day

[SirLanceMan]

Lmao! so funny @:43 seconds "like ocean waves"

I never knew that Ron Paul taught science!!!

[MrYuGiOhScaler]

wheres the Love wave and Rayleigh wave?

I work in a museum and this EXACTLY how we talk!

[aligh18]

this is ridiculously dorky.

[lochie108]

@aligh18 agreed

[ramzeen7]

which wave causes the most destruction?

[ProcyonVulpecula]

@ramzeen7 Surface waves cause the most destruction, compared to P-waves and S-waves.

[ramzeen7]

this is so confusing p waves are longitudinal and s waves are transverse, therefore s waves should travel faster than p waves, as he said lightning comes before the thunder and lightning is visible light, which is a traverse waves and thunder is a longitudinal wave, how is this possible?

[ProcyonVulpecula]

@ramzeen7 The reason light travels faster than sound isn't because it's a transverse wave and sound is a longitudinal wave, it's because light is an electromagnetic wave (electromagnetic waves always travel at the speed of light) and sound is a vibration in a medium whose speed depends on the density of the medium. Both S and P waves are vibrations in mediums, so whether or not they are transverse or longitudinal doesn't matter for their speed. Hope that helps :)

This video is very corny but it gets the message across loud and clear

cool..

i love science.
