Answer:

Hi There!

Step-by-step explanation:

1 to 8 km/sec

S-waves are transverse waves. Even though they are slower than P-waves, the S-waves move quickly. Typical S-wave propagation speeds are on the order of 1 to 8 km/sec. The lower value corresponds to the wave speed in loose, unconsolidated sediment, the higher value is near the base of Earth's mantle.
