A body wave is a type of seismic wave that travels through the interior of the Earth. There are two main types of body waves: primary (P) waves, which are compressional waves that move faster and can travel through solids, liquids, and gases, and secondary (S) waves, which are shear waves that only travel through solids. Body waves are essential for understanding the Earth's internal structure and are used in seismology to locate and analyze earthquakes.
The next type of seismic wave to arrive after the P-wave is the S-wave.
Yes. In a seismic context, P and S waves are body waves while Love and Rayleigh waves are surface waves.
A seismic wave is a type of wave that travels through Earth's interior. These waves are generated by earthquakes or other disturbances and can be classified into two main types: body waves which travel through the Earth's interior and surface waves that travel along its surface.
A body wave is a seismic wave that moves through the interior of the earth, as opposed to surface waves that travel near the earth's surface. P and S waves are body waves. Each type of wave shakes the ground in different ways.
Any wave has two directions: the up and down direction (primary wave) and the side to side direction (secondary wave).

It is a type of mechanical wave known as a seismic wave.
Xray.
Sea waves are a type of mechanical wave known as a surface wave. These waves are caused by the wind transferring energy to the surface of the water body, creating a movement that propagates across the surface in the form of waves.
