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).
False. An earthquake is a seismic wave caused by a sudden release of energy.
A large wave is typically caused by strong winds, seismic activity under the ocean, or underwater landslides. When these factors occur, they displace a large volume of water, leading to the formation of a large wave that can travel long distances.
The love wave is a type of surface seismic wave that travels along the Earth's surface and is important in understanding seismic activity because it can cause significant ground shaking and damage during earthquakes. By studying the characteristics of love waves, scientists can better understand the behavior of seismic waves and improve earthquake prediction and hazard assessment.
The S-wave.

Seismic Waves - are mechanical vibrations that occur inside the Earth caused by the breaking of rocks.
A seismic wave is a type of energy wave that is generated by an earthquake or other geologic activity. These waves travel through the Earth and can be detected and measured by seismographs. Seismic waves provide important information about the structure and composition of the Earth's interior.
A seismograph can locate a seismic wave.
