Answer:
The correct answer is Option(d) elastically distort the material that they pass through
Explanation:
Seismic waves are waves of energy that elastically distort the material that they pass through.
Seismic waves are energy waves that deform the material through which they move. As a result, after passing through an elastic body of rock, a seismic wave returns to its original shape and volume.
- Seismic waves are created by abrupt movement of elements within the Earth, such as fault slip during an earthquake. Seismic waves can be caused by volcanic eruptions, explosions, landslides, avalanches, and even flowing rivers.
- Transverse waves, also known as shear waves, occur when the vibrations of particles in a medium are perpendicular to the wave's propagation direction. As a result, they leave troughs and crests in the material they move through (they distort the medium). P-waves are followed by S-waves to the surface.
