Question 19

During a seismic event, a monitoring station detects two types of body waves traveling through the Earth's crust: primary ( $P$ ) waves, which are longitudinal, and secondary ( $S$ ) waves, which are transverse.

Compare the motion of the ground particles during the passage of an $S$ -wave to their motion during a $P$ -wave, clearly relating your description to the direction of energy transfer.
