They're called 'seismic' waves.
What else can I help you with?
What are the waves that move through the Earth's crust called?
Seismic waves.
Waves that carry energy through earth rocks are called?
Seismic waves.
What are earthquake generated waves called?
Earthquake generated waves are called seismic waves. These are waves of energy that travel through the Earth's layers. Their velocity depends on the elasticity and density of the medium that they travel through.
What are the waves of force called that travel through Earth as a result of an earthquake?
Seismic Waves.
What ares seismic waves?
Seismic waves are vibrations that travel through the Earth carrying the energy released during earthquakes. == Seismic waves are waves that are a result of earthquake activity in the earth. There are body and surface waves. Body waves happen inside the earth and are called P (longitudinal) and S (transverse) waves. Surface waves happen on the Earth's surface and are called Rayleigh and Love waves. P-waves (primary waves) go first, compress and expand the earth, and are faster. S-waves (secondary waves) go second, move the ground up and down or side to side, and are not as fast as P waves.

What study pf earthquake waves called?
Earth's interior...
What do we call earthquake waves?
Earthquake waves are called seismic waves. There are two main types of seismic waves: body waves, which travel through the Earth's interior, and surface waves, which travel along the Earth's surface. These waves are responsible for the shaking and damage caused by earthquakes.
How does the suns energy reach Earth?
Waves of heat and light, called radiation, travel to earth.
What are the vibrations that move through the ground carrying the energy released during an earthquake called?
Seismic waves
What kind of a wave is caused by an seismic activity?
Seismic activity generates seismic waves. These waves can be classified into two main types: body waves that travel through the Earth's interior (P-waves and S-waves) and surface waves that travel along the Earth's surface (Love waves and Rayleigh waves).
Shock waves that are felt on the earth's surface as the results of faulting in the crust are called?
Seismic waves or tremors
