Who knows where they begin .
P-waves are longitudinal and S-waves are transverse waves.
p wave comes first s wave comes next and last comes surface wave.
surface waves because p waves and s waves are way faster so here is how it goes from fastest to slowest: is p wave and then s wave and then surface waves
seismic waves
No, but P and S waves are used for earthquakes..and everybody should know that p waves come befoe s waves during an earthquake and maybe even during an aftershock....

P-waves are longitudinal and S-waves are transverse waves.
P and S waves are body waves.
P-waves are faster than s-waves. Both can pass through solid rock, but only p-waves can pass through gases and liquids === ===
For P waves, the two descriptive words are Primary (or compressional) waves, while for S waves, the two words are Secondary (or shear) waves.
No, surface waves move slower than P-waves and S-waves. P-waves are the fastest seismic waves, followed by S-waves, and then surface waves. Surface waves travel along the Earth's surface and are responsible for the most damage during an earthquake.
P waves have a higher velocity than S waves. This is known because P waves (Primary waves) arrive at recording stations faster than all other waves. S waves (Secondary waves) arrive second at recording stations.
P-waves are longitudinal and S-waves are transverse waves.
P-waves are faster than s-waves. Both can pass through solid rock, but only p-waves can pass through gases and liquids === ===
p wave comes first s wave comes next and last comes surface wave.
no, p waves are the fastest followed by s waves and finally surface waves
P-waves stand for primary waves, but a good trick is to think of the P as standing for pressure, because P waves are compression waves. S-wave stands for secondary wave, but the trick is to think of the S as standing for shear wave. This is because S-waves move in a shearing (side to side) motion. The means that S waves cannot travel through liquid, and also travel slower than P-waves.
