No. Surface waves are slower than both P and S-waves.
What else can I help you with?
Compared to P waves and S waves do surface waves move slower or faster?
Surface waves move slower than P waves and S waves. They travel along the surface of the Earth and are primarily responsible for the damage caused by earthquakes, as they have a larger amplitude and longer period.
Do surface waves move faster than P-waves or S-waves?
No, surface waves move slower than P-waves and S-waves. P-waves are the fastest seismic waves, followed by S-waves, and then surface waves. Surface waves travel along the Earth's surface and are responsible for the most damage during an earthquake.
Which is not true about p waves?
P waves are the first seismic waves to be recorded on seismographs during an earthquake. They are also known as compressional waves because they move in a back-and-forth motion parallel to the direction of wave propagation. One thing that is not true about P waves is that they are the slowest seismic waves; in fact, they are faster than both S waves and surface waves.
Which are faster s waves and p waves or surface waves?
The fast is primary wave which travels through liguid, solid and gas. This how Geologist know the outer core is liquid. Secondary waves travel through only solid. The primary wave are the first to reach the seismograph.
When do P waves arrive at the surface in relation to S waves?
P waves arrive before S waves during an earthquake, as P waves are faster and can travel through solid rock, while S waves can only travel through solids and are slower. This difference in arrival time can be used to determine the distance of the earthquake epicenter from the seismograph station.
Compared to P waves and S waves do surface waves move slower or faster?
Surface waves move slower than P waves and S waves. They travel along the surface of the Earth and are primarily responsible for the damage caused by earthquakes, as they have a larger amplitude and longer period.
Do surface waves move faster than P-waves or S-waves?
No, surface waves move slower than P-waves and S-waves. P-waves are the fastest seismic waves, followed by S-waves, and then surface waves. Surface waves travel along the Earth's surface and are responsible for the most damage during an earthquake.
Is it true that surface waves move more quickly than p and s waves?
No, P and S waves travel faster than surface waves. P waves are the fastest seismic waves, followed by S waves, with surface waves being the slowest. Surface waves are responsible for most of the damage caused by earthquakes due to their amplitude and duration.
Are p-waves faster than s-waves and surface waves?
Yes. P-waves have the highest velocity of all seismic waves and surface waves have the lowest.
How do surface waves particles move?
, ,p,;p;
Which travels slower p waves or surface waves?
surface waves because p waves and s waves are way faster so here is how it goes from fastest to slowest: is p wave and then s wave and then surface waves
How do surface waves move rock particle?
, ,p,;p;
Is it true that surface waves move more quickly than p waves and s waves?
no, p waves are the fastest followed by s waves and finally surface waves
How much faster does p waves move than s waves?
P-waves move around 3 km/s faster than s-waves.
Which is not true about p waves?
P waves are the first seismic waves to be recorded on seismographs during an earthquake. They are also known as compressional waves because they move in a back-and-forth motion parallel to the direction of wave propagation.

Which are faster s waves and p waves or surface waves?
The fast is primary wave which travels through liguid, solid and gas. This how Geologist know the outer core is liquid. Secondary waves travel through only solid. The primary wave are the first to reach the seismograph.
Is Primary wave the fastest wave?
i think so.. :/ Travel fastest through rock material causing rock particles in the rock to move back or forth
