Primary waves, Secondary waves, and Seismic waves
The waves produced by earthquakes are called seismic waves.
Waves produced by earthquakes are called seismic waves. These waves can be further categorized into primary (P-waves), secondary (S-waves), and surface waves.
Seismic waves
Both involve mechanical waves. The P waves generated in earthquakes can actually be considered to be extremely low frequency sound waves.

Seismic waves or tremors
Earthquakes create seismic waves, which are vibrations that travel through the Earth. There are two main types of seismic waves: body waves, which travel through the interior of the Earth, and surface waves, which travel along the Earth's surface. These waves are responsible for the shaking and damage associated with earthquakes.
