There was one in Antartica that was 23.5 on the Richter
Seismic sea waves are also called a tsunami.
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.
Fxck you
(not seismic, seismic wave)Seismic waves are waves of energy that travel through the earth.
There are two instruments, which are basically the same thing. There is the seismograph , and a more specific tool measures the waves on what is called the Richter scale. Earthquakes are given a number from one to ten, ten being the strongest. The strongest earthquake that their ever was, was measured a 9.3.
Is it the epicenter
A seismic station located directly above the earthquake's epicenter would receive no seismic waves as the waves would originate below the station, preventing them from reaching it.
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.

Seismic waves.
seismic waves actually the correct answer is S waves. trust me if you put seismic waves it will be wrong
During an earthquake, seismic waves are released. These waves travel through the Earth and can be detected by seismographs. The main types of seismic waves are P-waves (primary waves), S-waves (secondary waves), and surface waves.
The strongest point in an earthquake is the epicenter.
Seismic waves are associated with earthquakes.
Seismic waves do not end at an earthquake's center; rather they continue to propagate through the Earth in all directions from the initial point of rupture. The seismic waves can be recorded by seismometers located around the world, providing valuable information about the earthquake's location, magnitude, and source mechanism.
No, they are in fact the slowest! The fastest seismic waves are P-waves.
Primary waves (P-waves) are the fastest seismic waves and are the first to be detected after an earthquake. They are able to travel through solid rock, liquid, and gas, making them the fastest seismic waves.
