Which statements describe surface waves? Select three options.

They arrive before S waves.
They travel slower than P waves.
They result in much ground motion.
They are produced by P and S waves.
They travel deep below Earth’s surface.

The statement  that describe the surface waves are :-They travel slower than P waves.,They result in much ground motion.,They are produced by P and S waves.

Explanation:

The Surface waves are the waves that arise when  the  P waves and S waves come to the surface.

The P wave travel faster than both the S wave and the surface wave and hence we can say that the surface wave travel slower than P waves.

Love waves and Rayleigh waves. are the two main type of surface wave.

It is the body way that can travel through the inner surface of the earth whereas the surface wave only travels at the earth's surface.

Hence we can say that -The statement  that describe the surface waves are :-They travel slower than P waves.

They result in much ground motion..

They are produced by P and S waves.

They travel slower than P waves, result in much ground motion, and they are produced by P and S waves.
