If you mean Earth's interior, only longitudinal waves can pass through the liquid parts.
S-waves do not pass through Earth's liquid outer core because liquids cannot support the shear stress needed for these waves to propagate. This property helps scientists to understand the composition of Earth's layers by observing which seismic waves are transmitted or blocked.
Because since secondary waves cannot pass through liquids or solids, and the waves can't pass thruogh the outer core than that means that the outer core is not soild.
Seismic waves travels faster through solid rock than water because their speed depends on the density and composition of material that they pass through.Solid rock is denser than water, hence the energy from seismic waves transfer faster through solid rock than in water.
there are convection currents in the upper core.
There is no seismic wave that can only pass through the Earth's mantle. However S-waves can not travel through earth's outer core because it is a liquid.

The liquid you cannot see through but allows light to pass through is called opaque. This means that the liquid does not allow visible light to pass through, making it impossible to see through it.
A gas cannot easily pass through a liquid or a solid however it can be entrapped in it . If a gas bubble is formed in a liquid it moves upward and escapes out of the liquid. Gas cannot pass through a solid barrier.
P waves are seismic body waves that can penetrate the Earth's core. They are the fastest seismic waves and can travel through both solid and liquid materials, allowing them to pass through the Earth's core.
Water cannot pass through tyvek. Water vapor can however but liquid water cannot. Tyvek is high-density polyethylene fiber and is a synthetic material.
yes, the Earth's core is liquid.Scientists have found this out by seismic waves. They are unable to pass through liquid and whilst tracking them, scientists found that they avoid the center, telling us that the center of the earth is liquid.
S-waves (shear) from earthquakes cannot pass through liquid, P-waves (pressure) from earthquakes can pass through liquid. Seismic data show a total shadow of S-waves directly opposite the point at which an earthquake happened, but no shadow of P-waves directly opposite the point at which an earthquake happened, Therefore liquid inside the earth is blocking the S-waves from getting into this shadow area.
Primary (P) waves can pass through the solid inner core of the Earth. P-waves are the fastest seismic waves and can travel through solid, liquid, and gaseous materials.
