Why do S waves not come to the surface beyond the shadow zone?

S waves do not pass through Earth's liquid outer core, which causes a shadow zone on the opposite side of the Earth from an earthquake. The liquid outer core absorbs and blocks S waves, preventing them from reaching the surface beyond the shadow zone.

Is the shadow zone always inthe same location on earth?

No, the shadow zone is not always in the same location on Earth. The shadow zone refers to regions where seismic waves, particularly P-waves, do not arrive due to the Earth's structure, including its core and mantle. As seismic waves travel, their paths can be affected by various geological factors, and the location of the shadow zone will vary depending on the position of the earthquake and the Earth's rotation. Thus, the shadow zone shifts with each seismic event.
