P waves are the first to arrive in a seismograph. P waves are the fastest waves, and can pass through not only molten, but solid rock. P waves move back and fourth through the Earth, similar to a slinky]]> 2017-05-18 05:12:29 UTC https://padlet.com/sloane8404passey/i9hm3otpua3r/wish/172487894 Surface Waves sloane8404passey https://padlet.com/sloane8404passey/i9hm3otpua3r/wish/172488270 A surface wave is a siesmic wave that moves throughout Earth, producing explosions or earthquakes.

  • Ground Shaking: Earthquakes
  • Tsunami: Sea creating waves and pushing them to shore
  • Landslides and Rockfalls: Rocks sliding down things such a mountains
  • Subsidence and Lateral Spreading: Cracks forming in the sidewalk, roads, or just plain soil
  • Liquefaction; Water bieng pushed up through cracks in the Earth's surface
