Question

What kind of waves are present during an earthquake? ...……………✨✨✨✨​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Earthquakes radiate seismic energy as both body and surface waves. Traveling through the interior of the earth, body waves arrive before the surface waves emitted by an earthquake. These waves are of a higher frequency than surface waves. The first kind of body wave is the P wave or primary wave.

Answer 2

Good morning!!

There are four main types of earthquake waves: P-waves and S-waves (which are body waves), and Rayleigh waves and Love waves (which are surface waves). Love waves tend to cause the most damage due to their large amplitude and P-waves the least, but P-waves are the first to arrive.
