How science explains monster waves
Rogue waves - enormous, spontaneous surface waves in the open ocean - were once the tall tales of sailors. They are waves that reach 2-3x taller than the largest average waves in the area, reaching heights of 75 – 100ft. With the help of...

PHYSICS - Astrophysics - Waves and the Earth (S and P waves)
In this video you are going to learn how we used earthquakes to look deep into the earth. The study of S and P waves helped us understand that the Earth has a layered structure, with a solid inner core surrounded by an outer liquid core.
