The three types of seismic waves are:
P waves
S waves
Surface waves ( two surface waves. Riley surface wave and love surface wave named after scientists
Surface waves, P-waves, and S-waves.
Seismic waves affect us because they are what causes the motion from an earthquake that destroy buildings and such. The three types of seismic waves are surface waves primary waves also called P-waves and secondary waves also called S-waves.
Rock under stress breaks at the focus, releasing energy and vibrations called seismic waves, which travel away from the focus, through Earth's interior, and across the surface. The three types of seismic waves are: Primary waves: The first to arrive at seismographs Secondary waves: The second to arrive at seismographs Surface waves: The last and most severe to arrive at seismographs
Seismic sea waves are also called a tsunami.
Fxck you
They are P Waves S Waves and Surface Waves.
The three types of waves in order of speed are: P-waves (Primary waves) - fastest seismic waves, travel through solid and liquid. S-waves (Secondary waves) - slower than P-waves, can only travel through solid. Surface waves - slowest seismic waves, travel along Earth's surface causing most damage during earthquakes.
Surface waves, P-waves, and S-waves.
The surface waves
no, there are p-waves, s-waves, surface waves

Seismic waves affect us because they are what causes the motion from an earthquake that destroy buildings and such. The three types of seismic waves are surface waves primary waves also called P-waves and secondary waves also called S-waves.
The three types of seismic waves are:P waves, S waves, and Surface waves
First P waves, seismic waves that compress and expand the ground like an accordion. Then S waves, seismic waves that vibrate from side to side as well as up and down. And finally Surface waves, they move more slowly than P waves and S waves. But they can produce severe ground movements.
The movement of faults produces seismic waves. When an earthquake occurs, it generates three types of seismic waves: P-waves (Primary waves), S-waves (Secondary waves), and surface waves. P-waves are the fastest and can travel through solids, liquids, and gases. S-waves are slower and move only through solids. Surface waves cause the most damage and travel along the Earth's surface.
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.
P-waves are the first to arrive at a seismic station. There are two major types of waves: Body waves and surface waves. P-waves and S-waves come under Body waves while Love and Rayleigh waves come under surface waves. Body waves are much faster than the Surface waves. Waves are detected in the following order: P, S, Love and Rayleigh
