No. P-waves (or primary waves) are the first waves to arrive.
False. P waves are the first waves to arrive after an earthquake occurs
P-waves are the first to arrive at a seismic station. There are two major types of waves: Body waves and surface waves. P-waves and S-waves come under Body waves while Love and Rayleigh waves come under surface waves. Body waves are much faster than the Surface waves. Waves are detected in the following order: P, S, Love and Rayleigh
No, surface waves are typically the last seismic waves to arrive at a seismic facility. They travel more slowly than body waves (P and S waves) and arrive after the initial shaking caused by the faster body waves.
Primary waves are seismic waves and the arrive first after an earthquake occurs.
The distance between a seismic station and the earthquake epicenter is determined by measuring the time it takes for the seismic waves from the earthquake to arrive at the station. By analyzing the arrival times of the different types of seismic waves (P-waves and S-waves), scientists can triangulate the epicenter location using multiple seismic stations.
P waves (APEX)
No
False. P waves are the first seismic waves to arrive at a given location during an earthquake, followed by S waves. P waves are faster than S waves and are able to travel through both solids and liquids, while S waves can only travel through solids.

Primary waves (P-waves) are the seismic waves that arrive at the surface first and move by compressing and expanding the ground, similar to an accordion. They are the fastest seismic waves and can travel through solids, liquids, and gases.

The type of seismic waves that arrive at the surface first and move by compressing and expanding the ground like an accordion are called primary (P-waves) or compressional waves. They are the fastest seismic waves and can travel through solids, liquids, and gases.

P Wave
Gallipoli is a geographical location. It has always been where it is.
A seismometer detects primary waves (P-waves) first. These are the fastest seismic waves and are the first to arrive at a seismometer after an earthquake.
