1. There are four types of seismic waves: P wave (longitudinal), S wave (transverse), Love wave, and Rayleigh waves.  P and S waves are body waves and go through the Earth.  P waves arrive first.  Love and Rayleigh waves are surface waves, Love waves are transverse and the Rayleigh…

1.  P and  S waves interior waves.   P--longitudinal, S transverse Raleigh is a surface wave---rolling action on the transverse wave Love is a suface wave that slides parallel to the surface.   2.  P penatrates through all layers of the earth.  Refracting at…
