Which seismic waves are call “push/pull” because they compress and extend as theymove through the earth? *

Which type of seismic wave can move through solid layers of the earth but not through the liquid outer core? *

Which seismic wave is the first to reach a seismic station, and therefore is the fastest? *

Answer 1

1.A 2.P waves are the fastest kind of seismic wave. a longitudinal P wave has the ability to move through solid rock and fluid rock, like water or the semi-liquid layers of the earth. It pushes and pulls the rock it moves through in the same way sound waves push and pull the air. 3.The second type of body wave is the S wave or secondary wave, which is the second wave you feel in an earthquake. An S wave is slower than a P wave and can only move through solid rock, not through any liquid medium. It is this property of S waves that led seismologists to conclude that the Earth’s outer core is a liquid. 4.P Waves The first kind of body wave is the P wave or primary wave. This is the fastest kind of seismic wave, and, consequently, the first to 'arrive' at a seismic station. The P wave can move through solid rock and fluids, like water or the liquid layers of the earth.
