Sound
Sound Travels in P-Waves, Pressure waves
This is the difference between p-waves and S-waves
How do marine organisms use sound in the ocean (voices in the sea)?
Due to the vibration of the sound created by marine creatures, sound is able to move toward the direction that the living creatures is facing.
How do people use sound (sonar) in the ocean (military, exploration)?
Sonar that is beneath the ocean transfers the sound waves received my natural waves in the ocean to other ships on the top surface of the ocean, telling them what other ships or objects they are going to encounter.

- S waves are called sheer waves because of the picture above.
- Sheer Waves moves like a ocean wave.
- P waves are called Pressure waves.
- It transfers motion, pushes like newtons cradle.
- Sound requires matter to travel.
- With close compressibility, sound moves/ transfers faster/
- with farther compressibility, sound moves/ transfers slower.
- Sound waves travel which ever way that it is facing.
- SOFAR channel
-Sound will move faster when this is happening.
- Sounds that are slanted, heading down to the bottom of the ocean surface, and then bends upwards, heading for the top surface.
-Sound will move faster when is is closer to the bottom of the ocean.
