The study of earthquakes called Seismology, relies on the fact that different materials within the Earth react differently to stress. When a fault slips, energy radiates outward from the focus (the ...
Earthquakes release energy along faults, generating seismic waves. P-waves are faster, compressional, and travel through all materials. S-waves are slower, shear waves, and travel only through solids.
