These waves are the fastest waves. These waves travel through anything. These waves are secondary waves. This is the place inside the Earth where the Earthquake actually occurs. This is the place on the surface of the Earth directly above the Earthquake location. These are surface waves & are very slow. These are only half as fast as primary waves. Where do the deepest Earthquakes occur? These waves are compressional waves.
