Surface waves-Ava :)
Yes, the heat from the Earth's inner core and the movement of tectonic plates can produce seismic waves. Seismic waves are generated by the release of energy during the movement of Earth's crustal plates, such as during earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, or other geological events. The waves can travel through the Earth, carrying valuable information about the Earth's interior.
First P waves, seismic waves that compress and expand the ground like an accordion. Then S waves, seismic waves that vibrate from side to side as well as up and down. And finally Surface waves, they move more slowly than P waves and S waves. But they can produce severe ground movements.
Seismic waves occur when there is an earthquake.
P-waves are the first to arrive at a seismic station. There are two major types of waves: Body waves and surface waves. P-waves and S-waves come under Body waves while Love and Rayleigh waves come under surface waves. Body waves are much faster than the Surface waves. Waves are detected in the following order: P, S, Love and Rayleigh
Seismic waves and tsunamis.
Earthquakes produce seismic waves that travel through the Earth's interior. There are two main types of seismic waves: P-waves (primary waves) and S-waves (secondary waves). These waves can be detected and studied to better understand the properties of the Earth's interior.
Seismic waves.
These are known as seismic waves.

A seismograph is an instrument that produces a record of seismic waves by detecting and measuring the vibrations caused by earthquakes or other seismic events. It consists of a seismometer to detect ground motion and a recording device to produce a trace of the detected seismic waves.
A seismic wave. If the earthquake occurs under water, the seismic waves can produce waves in the water called tsunami.
Surface waves (e.g. Rayleigh waves, Love waves) that produce vertical motion of the ground surface produce the most damage during an earthquake.
Surface waves generally cause the most damage during an earthquake as they travel along the Earth's surface and can produce strong shaking. In contrast, P-waves (primary waves) cause the least damage as they are the fastest seismic waves and are typically not as destructive as the slower-moving surface waves.
Seismic waves are produced by earthquakes and travel through the Earth. These waves can be divided into two main types: body waves (P-waves and S-waves) that travel through the interior of the Earth, and surface waves that travel along the Earth's surface.
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.
