Which type of earthquakes waves move the slowest?

The surface waves (composed in turn of the Rayleigh and Love waves) are the slowest seismic waves.


What do L waves travel through?

L waves, also known as Love waves, are a type of surface wave that travel through the solid layer of the Earth's crust. These waves move by shaking the ground side-to-side in a horizontal direction. L waves are slower than other seismic waves but can cause significant damage during earthquakes.


What do waves move through?

Different types of waves move in different patterns. Ocean waves move in a circular pattern while sound waves move in a sinusoidal pattern.

Which earthquake waves are horizontal?

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.
