What are the fastest waves that compress and expand the ground like an accordion?
The fastest waves that compress and expand the ground like an accordion are primary waves (P-waves). These seismic waves are the first to arrive after an earthquake and travel through solids, liquids, and gases. They cause particles in the ground to move in the same direction as the wave itself, resulting in the compressional and expansion effects.
