High Blood Pressure. By lowering blood pressure, blood pressure medications (like clonidine) are thought to decrease the risks that occur with long-term high blood pressure (see Effects of High Blood Pressure). Clonidine does not, however, cure high blood pressure. It can be used alone or in combination with other blood pressure medications.
Add your answer. Do s-waves move side to side and do p-waves move up and down? In one book it says p-waves move up and down and another it says p-waves move side to side. And also s-waves, one book says they move up and down and another side to side! so what is it? and which causes the most damage?
Quick Answer. The bottom of a wave, or a low spot between waves, is referred to as the trough, while the top of a wave is referred to as the crest. As waves elevate, the force of gravity pulls them back down, causing the crest of a new wave to form. Most waves are caused by steady winds or in storm centers. In a storm's center, waves of different sizes and lengths occur at once. As the waves travel outward from the center of the storm, they become more predictable because the longer wavelengths travel at a faster rate than the shorter wavelengths.
