L waves, also known as Love waves, are a type of surface wave that travel through the solid layer of the Earth's crust. These waves move by shaking the ground side-to-side in a horizontal direction. L waves are slower than other seismic waves but can cause significant damage during earthquakes.

Electromagnetic waves can travel through a?
Vacuum
Why can radio waves travel through space but sound waves can not?
Radio waves travel through empty space because they are electromagnetic waves, whereas sound is a wave that must travel through air.
Do waves travel through water?
Waves travel through everything, whether they are composed of solidity or not.
Can sound waves travel through clouds?
Yes, sound waves can travel through clouds.
Where do sound waves travel through?
Sound waves travel through matter, whether solid, liquid, or gas. They do not travel through vacuum.
What matter do L-Waves travel through?
only through the surface of the earth
What type of seismic wave does not travel through the core?
Primary waves ( P-waves) can travel through earth's outer core.
What do shear waves travel through?
Shear waves travel through solids. They cannot travel through liquids and gasses (unlike compressive waves) and they can't travel through a vacuum (unlike electromagnetic waves).
Electromagnetic waves can travel through a?
Vacuum
What do earthquake waves travel through?
earthquake waves travel through the earths crust.
What can s waves not travel through?
S-waves cannot travel through liquids, but they can travel through solids and gases. P-waves can travel through solids, liquids and gases. Hope this helped! :D
Which layers can S-waves travel through?
s-waves travel through solids only
Why can radio waves travel through space but sound waves can not?
Radio waves travel through empty space because they are electromagnetic waves, whereas sound is a wave that must travel through air.
Seismic waves that cannot travel through liquids?
Shear Waves (S Waves) cannot travel through liquid
What type of waves travel through space?
Sound waves cannot travel through space.
Do waves travel through water?
Waves travel through everything, whether they are composed of solidity or not.
