    The document provides information about seismic waves, including: 1) There are two types of seismic waves - body waves that travel through the Earth's interior layers and surface waves that travel along the surface. 2) Body waves include P-waves and S-waves, with P-waves traveling faster and acting as longitudinal waves that push and pull material, while S-waves are transverse and move material side-to-side. 3) Surface waves include Love waves and Rayleigh waves, with Love waves being faster and causing side-to-side motion while Rayleigh waves are slower and cause rolling motion.

    SEISMIC
    WAVES
    Lesson Objective:
    1. Identify the layers of the Earth
    and their characteristics in
    relation to seismic waves;
    2. Describe the behavior of
    seismic waves;
    3. Compare and contrast P wave
    and S wave in terms of their
    speed and behavior;
    4. Explain how seismic waves are
    used to describe the interior of
    the Earth.

    1. Seismic waves from
    earthquakes are used
    by scientists to study
    the interior of the
    Earth. ABOUT SEISMIC
    WAVES
    2. Seismic waves move
    at different speeds when
    they travel through
    different types of
    materials they are
    encountering. ABOUT SEISMIC
    WAVES
    3. As the body waves travel
    through the Earth, the waves
    are bent by the different
    materials that make up the
    Earth. The bending of waves
    is similar to the bending of
    light waves as they travel
