1) Primary "P" body waves 2) Secondary "S" body waves 3) Surface waves 1) Primary ("P") waves -- - the fastest traveling wave through rock, so it's felt 1st after an earthquake - a type of body wave that pushes & pulls rock and liquid in the same direction as the wave moves 2) Secondary ("S") waves 2nd fastest moving, travels through solids only body wave that shifts rock side to side (at a right angle) relative to the direction of wave propagation: 3) Surface waves This group of waves is…

Earthquakes are natural phenomena caused by the sudden release of energy in the Earth's crust, resulting in seismic waves. This release of energy can occur due to tectonic plate movements, volcanic activity, or human-induced activities like mining. The severity of earthquakes is measured on the Richter scale or moment magnitude scale. They can lead to various effects, such as ground shaking, surface rupture, and sometimes tsunamis if they occur underwater.
