The two main categories of seismic waves are body waves and surface waves. Body waves can travel through the earth's inner layers, but surface waves can only move along the surface of the Earth.
the waves caused by an earthquake are called seismic waves
The Surface waves (of which there are two - the Love and Rayleigh waves) are the most destructive seismic waves as they have the largest amplitude.Surface waves cause the most damage as they have the largest amplitude of all the seismic waves.S Wave.yhuk
The Love and Rayleigh waves (collectively known as surface waves) are the slowest moving but most damaging of the seismic waves.
Primary (P) waves are the fastest. Followed by secondary (S) waves, then surface waves. P waves

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.
(not seismic, seismic wave)Seismic waves are waves of energy that travel through the earth.
seismic waves actually the correct answer is S waves. trust me if you put seismic waves it will be wrong
Earthquake waves are called seismic waves.
