Seismic WavesVibrations from large earthquakes are detetced as seismic waves by seismographs all around the world. Analysis of many earthquakes over the last 100 years has helped geologists build up a detailed picture of the inside of the Earth.P and S waves are seismic waves that travel through the layers of the Earth, so are called body waves. The travel: faster if the rock becomes more rigid and more incompressible slower if the rock becomes more dense If the rock loses its rigidity completely, S waves slow down until they stop. So S waves cannot travel through a liquid.
