Complete statement:

Describe S waves? Select three options.

(a) They move side to side.

(b) They arrive after P waves.

(c) They travel through solids.

(d) They travel through liquids.

(e) They occur at Earth’s surface.

Answer:

"S" waves are also known as secondary waves.

These waves are elastic waves and are also known as shear waves.

Secondary waves only travel through solid medium and are produced by the vibration of the particles of the medium in perpendicular direction.

Secondary waves travel through solid medium and their speed is less than the "P" waves.

Moreover, these are produced through side by side motion of particles.
