Earthquake waves travel faster in rocks that are more dense so observing them shows the density layering of the Earth. Also some waves can not pass through liquids and this shows us that there is a liquid core to the Earth.

3 How do earthquakes help us learn about the interior of the earth?

Earthquakes explain and support tectonic plate theory and show the movements of the plates over time. Fault lines also expose rock layers and allow geologists to study the rocks and the changes in the environment over time.An Earthquake gives out Seismic waves which. There are Primary Waves (P-Wave) and Secondary waves (S-Wave) The Secondary Seismic wave can't travel through liquid so when the sensors detect a wave and sees that some part the S-wave isn't going through a layer of the earth they know that that layer of the earth is Liquid.
