How do primary and secondary waves move?
Primary waves (P-waves) move by compressing and expanding rock material in the direction of wave propagation, similar to a slinky being pushed and pulled. Secondary waves (S-waves) move by shearing rock material side to side, perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation, like a rope being shaken.
