The distance between the beginning of the first P wave and the
first S wave tells you how many seconds the waves are apart.
This number will be used to tell you how far your seismograph is
from the epicenter of the earthquake.
Types of Surface Waves
Love Wave
Love Wave is named after Augustus Edward Hough Love. It has
a horizontal motion that is transverse to the direction the wave is
travelling and is considered to be the fastest surface wave and
moves the ground from side to side.
Rayleigh Wave
Rayleigh Waves move in an elliptical motion, producing both
vertical and horizontal motions. This moves the ground up and
down and side to side in the same direction that the wave is
moving. It is named after Lord Rayleigh (John William Strutt).
