Love and Rayleigh waves which are collectively known as surface waves cause the most damage during earthquakes.
Risk
Seismic waves are the forms of energy produced by an earthquake.
No, It's Seismic Waves.
maybe; the more powerful the earthquake, the more likely you are to feel it.
Earthquake damage is the damage to property and life from the ground vibrations during an earthquake. The Richter scale is one way to measure the scale of earthquake damage. For example, a magnitude of 5 is strong enough to damage weak buildings.
Surface waves (e.g. Rayleigh waves, Love waves) that produce vertical motion of the ground surface produce the most damage during an earthquake.
The L- Wave or the Love and Rayleigh waves (collectively known as surface waves) cause most of the damage during an earthquake.
The L- Wave or the Love and Rayleigh waves (collectively known as surface waves) cause most of the damage during an earthquake.
Risk
Seismic waves are produced by earthquakes, rather than the cause of them! The most damaging seismic waves are the surface waves of which there are two types. Love waves and Rayleigh waves. For more information, please see the related links and question.
The surface waves (of which their are two types, Rayleigh and Love waves) cause the most damage during an earthquake.
Earthquake waves are called seismic waves.
