Another word for seismic waves that characterizes the way they move?
P-Waves (Primary Waves) S-Waves (Secondary Waves) Surface Waves
What are waves that move from side to side?
S waves are waves that move from side to side.
ARE ocean waves transverse waves or longitudinal waves?
Ocean waves are transverse waves because they move up and down.
What are the definitions of love waves and Raleigh waves?
raleigh waves aree this and love waves are that i do not know:)
what is the difference between longitudinal and surface waves?
Longitudinal wave particles move parallel to the way the wave is moving. Surface wave particles move in a circular motion.
Which type of earthquakes waves move the slowest?
The surface waves (composed in turn of the Rayleigh and Love waves) are the slowest seismic waves.
What are p-waves also known as?
P-waves and primary waves are the same thing. They may also be known as pressure waves (or compression waves) due to their mode of propagation, the way they move through the Earth.

What does undulate mean?
Undulate- to move in waves or in a way manner (VB)
What Vibrations that move through the ground carrying the energy released during an earthquake are called .?
These are known as seismic waves - of which there are 4 types; P-waves, S-waves and Love and Rayleigh waves.
What is different about the seismic 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.
Which seismic waves cause the least damage?
The Love and Rayleigh waves (collectively known as surface waves) are the slowest moving but most damaging of the seismic waves.
What are the vibrations that move through the ground carrying the energy released during an earthquake called?
Seismic waves
I'm in love with my best friend but he doesn't love me that way What now?
If he doesn't love you the way you love him, it is time for you to move on.
