earthquake wave or shock wave
Seismic waves is the usual description.
Seismic 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.
This statement is incorrect. S waves are actually transverse seismic waves, meaning they move particles perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. Longitudinal seismic waves are known as P waves.
The movement of faults produces seismic waves. When an earthquake occurs, it generates three types of seismic waves: P-waves (Primary waves), S-waves (Secondary waves), and surface waves. P-waves are the fastest and can travel through solids, liquids, and gases. S-waves are slower and move only through solids. Surface waves cause the most damage and travel along the Earth's surface.

Seismic waves is the usual description.
Seismic waves.
Another word for an earthquake's strength is magnitude. Magnitude is a measure of the size of the seismic waves produced by an earthquake.
Earthquakes are when the seismic plates on the earths crust move after pressure from on another is exceeded, seismic waves are produced after an earthquake, and can turn into a tsunami.
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
well it's a scientist. it first came from the word seismic. there was no wave added until an earthquake happened to cross the scientist who made the word seismic.
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.
Seismic waves are associated with earthquakes.
Seismic wave reflection and refraction are the two processes that can affect the path of seismic waves. Reflection occurs when seismic waves bounce off a boundary between different materials, while refraction occurs when seismic waves change direction as they pass from one material to another with different properties.
