Materials in earth's interior?
10. what happens to p-waves and s-waves when they reach the boundary between
the mantle and the outer core? what does this tell us about the outer core? !

The inner core is the Earth's "interior".

P-waves pass through both the mantle and core, but are slowed and refracted at the mantle / core boundary. Whereas, S-waves pass from the mantle to the core and are absorbed due to shear waves being incapable of transmitting through liquids. Therefore, this is (further) proof the outer core does not behave like a solid substance.

both adhesion and cohesion are attractions.

they are different in that adhesion is the force of attraction between the molecules of two different substances, whereas cohesion is the force of attraction between molecules of the same substance.

possible examples include capillary action, in which the adhesion between water and glass causes the water to rise in a narrow tube against the force of gravity.

because of hydrogen bonding, water is extremely cohesive.

this causes molecules on the surface of water to be drawn inward, which is why drops of water form beads on smooth surfaces.

hope this .
