Yes, seismic waves can be destructive, particularly during earthquakes. The energy released during seismic events causes ground shaking, which can lead to building collapses, landslides, and tsunamis. The level of destruction depends on factors such as the earthquake's magnitude, depth, distance from populated areas, and local building codes. However, not all seismic waves are destructive; some are used in geophysical studies to understand the Earth's interior.
Destructive plate boundary.
The surface waves (composed in turn of the Rayleigh and Love waves) are the slowest seismic waves.
The seismic waves of an earthquake travel faster than the winds of a tornado. But this is not what makes earthquakes destructive.
Seismic sea waves are also called a tsunami.
Fxck you
The Surface waves (of which there are two - the Love and Rayleigh waves) are the most destructive seismic waves as they have the largest amplitude.Surface waves cause the most damage as they have the largest amplitude of all the seismic waves.S Wave.yhuk

Surface waves, including Rayleigh waves and Love waves, are the most destructive earthquake waves for buildings. They travel along the Earth's surface and cause the most shaking and damage to structures.
Seismic waves can exhibit both constructive and destructive interference. Constructive interference occurs when waves align to amplify each other, resulting in stronger shaking. Destructive interference occurs when waves align to cancel each other out, resulting in weaker shaking. The specific type of interference that occurs depends on the relative phase and amplitude of the waves.
Well there not called earthquake waves. They are called "seismic waves." There are 3 types of them P- and S-waves. Also Surface waves, those are the most detructive ones. The _waves are the least destructive ones. They are the ones you feel right before a earthquake. I'm 11 just so u peoples know...................i sounded like a teacher huh....peace peoples!!!!! :)
Surface waves generally cause the most damage during an earthquake as they travel along the Earth's surface and can produce strong shaking. In contrast, P-waves (primary waves) cause the least damage as they are the fastest seismic waves and are typically not as destructive as the slower-moving surface waves.
The surface waves (composed in turn of the Rayleigh and Love waves) are the slowest seismic waves.
Secondary seismic waves travel slower than primary waves but they are much more destructive. Thus it carries more energy.
Seismic waves are any waves that travel through the Earth. As such all earthquake waves are seismic waves, however not all seismic waves are caused by earthquakes.
(not seismic, seismic wave)Seismic waves are waves of energy that travel through the earth.
