What Movement of the faults produces which kind of energy waves?
The movement of faults produces seismic waves. When an earthquake occurs, it generates three types of seismic waves: P-waves (Primary waves), S-waves (Secondary waves), and surface waves. P-waves are the fastest and can travel through solids, liquids, and gases. S-waves are slower and move only through solids. Surface waves cause the most damage and travel along the Earth's surface.
What is another name for earthquake waves?
Seismic waves.
Which seismic waves travel the fastest?
Primary waves (P-waves) are the fastest seismic waves and are the first to be detected after an earthquake. They are able to travel through solid rock, liquid, and gas, making them the fastest seismic waves.
What are the two types of seismic surface waves?
body waves and surface waves
S waves are longitudinal seismic waves?
This statement is incorrect. S waves are actually transverse seismic waves, meaning they move particles perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. Longitudinal seismic waves are known as P waves.
Which is The most damaging of the three kinds of seismic waves?
The surface waves
What are the three seismic waves?
They are P Waves S Waves and Surface Waves.
What are three categories of seismic waves?
Surface waves, P-waves, and S-waves.
Are the three types of seismic waves the same?
no, there are p-waves, s-waves, surface waves
What are the three seismic waves in order?
The three types of seismic waves are: P waves S waves Surface waves ( two surface waves. Riley surface wave and love surface wave named after scientists
What are the three different seismic waves?
Seismic Waves:Surface WavesPrimary WavesSecondary Waves-Hope this helps :D-Dinaly Is Cool.
How do seismic waves affect us?
Seismic waves affect us because they are what causes the motion from an earthquake that destroy buildings and such. The three types of seismic waves are surface waves primary waves also called P-waves and secondary waves also called S-waves.
What are two kinds of seismic wave?
Body Waves and surface waves. I know that because it says it in my science book.:D
What are the two types of waves?
The three types of seismic waves are:P waves, S waves, and Surface waves

Is seismic waves and earthquake waves the same?
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.
What does seismic?
(not seismic, seismic wave)Seismic waves are waves of energy that travel through the earth.
