An S wave is slower than a P wave and only moves through solid rock. This wave moves rock up and down, or side-to-side. Because P waves are compression waves, they can move through a liquid. However, S waves cannot move through a liquid. This is because a liquid is not rigid enough to transmit an S wave.
These waves are called seismic waves. These waves are similar to ocean waves, which move through. water. Seismic waves, however, move through the ground. Most earthquakes are caused by the movement of large sections. of the Earthâs crust, called plates. The place where two plates meet. is called a fault. Faults look like large cracks in the ground.
