Question

How are S waves and surface waves similar?

Both arrive after P waves.
Both compress the ground.
Both travel through liquids.
Both produce minimal ground motion

Answer 1

Answer: The answer I s A: Both arrive after P waves. Why is this ? Surface waves only travel through the crust level while S waves travel through the core of the earth (hence called body waves). Hope this helps!

I am joyous to assist you anytime.

Explanation:

Answer 2

S waves and surface waves are similar - Both arrive after P waves.

S-waves or secondary waves

• are transverse waves that travel slower than P-waves.

• In this case, particle motion is perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation

• P waves are recorded earlier than S waves because they travel at a higher velocity

Surface wave

• is a mechanical wave that propagates along with the interface between differing media

• it also comes after P waves
• is a seismic wave that is trapped near the surface of the earth.

Thus, S waves and surface waves are similar - Both arrive after P waves.
