They are P Waves S Waves and Surface Waves.
The way seismic waves are different are that they're slower than the p waves who move a lot faster to reach the earthquake.
Surface waves, P-waves, and S-waves.
The surface waves
no, there are p-waves, s-waves, surface waves
The three types of seismic waves are: P waves S waves Surface waves ( two surface waves. Riley surface wave and love surface wave named after scientists
"True, the Seismic Waves change speed and direction when they encounter different materials."
Seismic waves affect us because they are what causes the motion from an earthquake that destroy buildings and such. The three types of seismic waves are surface waves primary waves also called P-waves and secondary waves also called S-waves.
Geologists locate the epicenter of an earthquake by analyzing the arrival times of seismic waves from the earthquake recorded by seismographs at different locations. By triangulating the arrival times from at least three stations, they can pinpoint the epicenter where the waves intersect.
Three main types of seismic waves are produced at the same time in an earthquake: primary (P-waves), secondary (S-waves), and surface waves. P-waves are the fastest and can travel through solids, liquids, and gases. S-waves are slower and only travel through solids. Surface waves are the slowest and cause the most destruction.
To locate the epicenter of an earthquake, scientists use data from seismographs to determine the difference in arrival times of seismic waves at different locations. By triangulating this data from at least three different seismograph stations, they can pinpoint the epicenter where the seismic waves originated.
