Intro to Geology
Frequency refers to the number of occurrences of a repeating event per unit of time. In the context of seismic waves, frequency is crucial as it helps determine the characteristics of the waves, including their energy and how they propagate through different materials. Higher frequency waves tend to carry more energy and are better at penetrating various geological structures, influencing how we understand and analyze seismic activity.
congrats on reading the definition of frequency. now let's actually learn it.
