Which statements describe surface waves? check all that apply. 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.

They travel slower than P waves.

They result in much ground motion.

Explanation:

There are three types of seismic waves: P waves, S waves and Surface waves.

P wave are primary waves which require medium to travel. These are fastest waves. S waves are the secondary waves. These are transverse waves. S waves move slower than P waves. Both of these waves can travel through the inner layers of Earth.

Surface waves travel near the surface or above the surface of the Earth. These travel slower than S waves and P waves but have large amplitudes which could much ground motion and cause huge destruction.

Hence, the statements describe the surface waves:

They travel slower than P waves.

They result in much ground motion.
