Which type of earthquake waves typically cause the most damage?

a) love (l) waves
b) primary (p) waves
d) secondary (s) waves
d} zeta (z) waves

Secondary (S) waves is the type of earthquake that cause the most damage.

Option C

Explanation:

Seismic waves can be grouped into two types namely body waves which travel through the Earth and surface waves, which travel along the Earth's surface. Body waves are in turn classified compression or essential (P) waves and shear or optional (S) waves.

P-and S-waves are designated "body waves" since they can go through the inside of a body, for example, the Earth's internal layers, from the focal point of a tremor  too far off focuses superficially.

P-waves travel quickest, at velocities between 4-8 km/sec (14,000-28,000 km/h) in the Earth's outside. S-waves travel all the more gradually, more often than not at 2.5-4 km/sec (9,000-14,000 km/h).

P-waves shake the ground toward the path they are proliferating causing less damage, while S-waves shake oppositely or transverse to the course of spread (for example they dislodge material at right points to their way) causing severe damage.
