Answer:On the other hand, S-waves are shear waves, which means that the motion of the medium is perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave. The energy is thus less easily transmitted through the medium, and S-waves are slower.

Surface waves are the slowest.(Option c)
- Surface waves travel just below the surface of the ground.
- They are the final waves to hit an area after an earthquake.
- They travel from focus directly upward the epicenter.
- Even though they are the slowest they might cause more damage during earthquakes because they move up and down like wave and make the earth bend and twist.
