Love waves are the most strongest type of Earthquakes.
maybe; the more powerful the earthquake, the more likely you are to feel it.
Love and Rayleigh waves which are collectively known as surface waves cause the most damage during earthquakes.
S waves
S waves, or Secondary waves, are earthquake waves during an earthquake. They crash after P waves ( Primary waves) and are less stronger than surface waves
The biggest reported earthquake had a magnitude of 9.5. The earthquake in Japan had a magnitude of 8.9, and that's the 5th largest earthquake reported.

You can feel it because the waves of the earthquake are very destructive depending on the type of earthquake. The wave you might be feeling is the last wave of the earthquake which is the slowest, but the most powerful. Hope this helped! :)

Gamma rays are the most powerful waves on the electromagnetic spectrum.
The L- Wave or the Love and Rayleigh waves (collectively known as surface waves) cause most of the damage during an earthquake.
Surface waves (e.g. Rayleigh waves, Love waves) that produce vertical motion of the ground surface produce the most damage during an earthquake.
In the context of a natural disaster event, the earthquake typically occurs before the tsunami. This is because the earthquake generates the seismic waves that trigger the tsunami as a series of powerful ocean waves.
The L- Wave or the Love and Rayleigh waves (collectively known as surface waves) cause most of the damage during an earthquake.
Surface waves are the earthquake waves that move in a horizontal direction along the ground. They are responsible for the most damage during an earthquake due to their side-to-side shaking motion.
Tsunami
No, P waves are not usually responsible for the most destruction during an earthquake. P waves are fast-moving seismic waves that usually cause less damage compared to the slower and more destructive S waves and surface waves. The shaking and ground displacement caused by these other waves typically result in the most destruction during an earthquake.
Earthquake waves are called seismic waves.
