what types of seismic waves are there
Seismic waves are divided into two types: Body waves and surface waves. Body waves include P and S waves, and these are the two types of waves that are used to determine the internal structure of the Earth. (There are other types of seismic waves, but they relate to surface damage and only travel through the Earth s crust, not the entire Earth. If you are interested though, there is a short activity to show you what they are and how they move.
