Which deductive reasoning provides evidence contradicting the idea that the Earth's core is solid?
(1 point)
After a major earthquake in 1960, scientists around the world detected S and P waves.
Earthquakes consist of both P and S waves.
Earthquakes consist of only S waves.
*My answer) After a major earthquake in 1960, some scientists around the world did not detect S waves.
1.the radioactive decay of uranium to lead
2.The composition of moon rocks and some Earth rocks are similar.
3.Its hydrogen atoms are heavier than others.
4.
Earth's surface is constantly changing
5.After a major earthquake in 1960, some scientists around the world did not detect S waves.
ok I do not need help that is the answer
FYI. Ms Sue passed away a few months before Covid started in the U. S. She was a great help to students.
RIP Miss Sue :(
@kitty cat who is ms sue
Your right, I got 100%
To answer this question, we need to look at the information given and determine which option provides evidence contradicting the idea that the Earth's core is solid.
The given information states that after a major earthquake in 1960, scientists around the world detected S and P waves. This indicates that both types of waves were detected during the earthquake.
Option 1 states that earthquakes consist of both P and S waves, which aligns with the information given and does not provide any evidence contradicting the idea of a solid core.
Option 2 states that earthquakes consist of only S waves. Since the given information states that both S and P waves were detected after the earthquake, this option contradicts the evidence and therefore provides evidence contradicting the idea that the Earth's core is solid.
Therefore, your answer, "After a major earthquake in 1960, some scientists around the world did not detect S waves," is correct.
