Answer:

secondary or shear waves

Explanation:

S-waves are shear waves, which move particles perpendicular to their direction of propagation. They can propagate through solid rocks because these rocks have enough shear strength. The shear strength is one of the forces that hold the rock together, preventing it from falling into pieces. Liquids lack shear strength

Answer:

S-waves can travel only through solids, because only solids have rigidity. S-waves cannot travel through liquids or gases. Because the earth's mantle becomes more rigid as its depth below the asthenosphere increases, S-waves travel faster as they go deeper in the mantle .
