Seismic waves are elastic waves that travel through the Earth's layers as a result of earthquakes, explosions, or volcanic eruptions. There are three main types of seismic waves: primary waves that cause back-and-forth motion in the direction of travel, secondary waves that cause changes in shape, and Love waves that form at surfaces and differ from other types of body and surface waves.

1. Seismic Waves
An elastic wave in the earth
produced by an earthquake or
other means

2. Summary
The seismic waves are waves of energy that travel
through the earth’s layers, and are a result of an
earthquake, explosion, or a volcano that gives out low-
frequency acoustic energy.

3. Types Of Waves
There are three types of earthquakes,
The first is primary waves
The second is secondary waves
Body waves which are the strongest.

4. Primary waves
Cause particles in rocks to move
back and forth in the same direction.

5. Secondary Waves
Secondary waves cause the rocks they pass
through to change in shape.

6. Love waves
They form a distinct class, different from other types of seismic
waves, such as P-waves and S-waves (both body waves), or
Rayleigh waves (another type of surface wave).

7. Question
1-what type of earthquake the seismic waves created?
The created three type of seismic like: primary waves,
secondary waves and love waves.
What is seismology?
Seismology is the study of earthquake and seismic waves
that moves through and around the earth.
