∙ 14y agoP or Primary waves are longitudinal waves that move rock particles back and forth in the same direction that the wave travels.

A wave in which the particles travel in the same direction as the wave is called a seismic wave. It is usually generated by earthquakes.
A P wave is a type of seismic wave that is caused by an earthquake. P waves are the first seismic waves felt during an earthquake. When the P wave moves, rock particles move back and forth along the direction of the P wave.
P waves are primary seismic waves. They are the fastest seismic waves and they are compressional or longitudinal waves, which means the back and forth movement of the particles is in the same direction as the wave is travelling. There is an illustration and explanation in the reference below. P waves can propagate through any medium. (solid. liquid or gas
It depends on whether the wave is a transversal or longitudinal wave. A transversal wave has particles in the medium oscillating in a direction perpendicular to the wave's direction. This is the case in for example water wave; the water moves up and down, but the wave moves forward. A longitudinal wave has the particles moving backwards and forwards in same direction the wave travels. This is the case in ordinary sound waves. You can see (or feel) this yourself when you look at the skin of a subwoofer making sounds (it is clearer when it is producing tones with a low pitch).
The particle will move briefly, then get back to its starting point. The wave moves ahead, the individual particles don't.The particle will move briefly, then get back to its starting point.

S-waves which are a form of seismic wave. Seismic waves are a type of mechanical wave known as a shear or transverse wave that travel through the solid Earth (but not the liquid outer core).

Well, its actually kinda obvious. Its-----TROLOLOLOLO
The fastest seismic wave that also moves back and forth is the P-wave.
