a shear wave is a wave that moves perpendicular throuth the earth in the form of an earthquake
Soil shear wave velocity is the speed at which shear waves propagate through the soil. It is a measure of the soil's stiffness and ability to transmit shear stress. Soil shear wave velocity can be influenced by factors such as soil type, density, and moisture content.
shear waves: move side to side, only move through solids, are also called secondary waves, are slower than compressional waves, travel perpendicular to the medium compressional waves: move straight in one direction, can move through solid, liquid and gas, are also called primary waves, are faster, travel parallel to the medium
well one is a water Waves, that i know for sure and the other is rope Waves, pretty sure but i could be wrong about that one
P=wave is short for pressure wave. S-wave is short for shear wave. This should suggest a possible reason they behave differently in the (molten) outer core.
A seismic wave travels through the Earth's layers, after a volcano, explosion, or earthquake. Transverse, compressional, longitude, and shear waves are all types of seismic waves after earthquakes.
A shear wave is a type of seismic wave.

The particle motion in shear waves relative to the energy of the wave is downward.
The velocity of pressure and shear waves through a solid is dependent on the elastic properties and density of the material through which the wave is travelling.The pressure wave velocity (VP) can be found using the following:VP = Sqrt((K+ (4/3 x G)) /P)Where:K = Bulk modulusG = Shear modulusP = DensityThe shear wave velocity is given by the following:VS = Sqrt (G/P)Where:VS = Shear wave velocityG = Shear modulusP = Density
A transverse wave that only travels through solids is called a shear wave. Shear waves propagate by causing particles in the solid to move perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation, making them useful for detecting subsurface structures in geophysics and engineering applications. Unlike longitudinal waves, shear waves cannot propagate in fluids or gases due to the absence of shear resistance in these mediums.
Shear waves transfer energy perpendicular to the direction of particle motion. As the particles move horizontally, the energy is transmitted vertically. This causes the material to shear or deform sideways as the wave propagates through it.
Shear waves travel perpendicular to the direction of particle motion, which results in the particle motion being parallel to the wave's direction. The energy of a shear wave is mainly associated with the shearing or twisting motion of particles in the medium, as opposed to the compression and expansion seen in longitudinal waves.
S-wave stands for : Secondary wave. It comes after the P-wave and goes before the L-wave.
The shear wave velocity in HDPE (High-density polyethylene) typically ranges from 1500 to 2500 m/s, depending on factors like temperature, density, and crystallinity of the material.

In a shear wave, the energy is carried perpendicular to the direction of particle motion. The particle motion in shear waves involves particles moving in a side-to-side or up-and-down direction, while the energy is propagated horizontally or vertically.
