The three types of seismic waves are Primary waves (P-waves), Secondary waves (S-waves), and Surface waves. P-waves are compressional waves that travel through solid and liquid material, S-waves are transverse waves that only travel through solid material, and Surface waves are slower than the firstRead more
The three types of seismic waves are Primary waves (P-waves), Secondary waves (S-waves), and Surface waves. P-waves are compressional waves that travel through solid and liquid material, S-waves are transverse waves that only travel through solid material, and Surface waves are slower than the first two types and cause most of the damage during an earthquake. Seismic waves carry energy from the earthquake’s focus and cause the ground to vibrate as they travel through it.
