When earthquakes produce vibrations called waves, how do those waves travel? They ripple from the epicenter of the earthquake. T
hey move back and forth and side to side through water. They travel away from the focus of the earthquake in all directions. They move slowly and increase in intensity as they reach Earth's surface.
Answer: They travel away from the focus of the earthquake in all directions.
Explanation:
The vibrations produced by Earthquake are called seismic waves. seismic waves travel from the point where fault occurs. The maximum intensity is about the focus of the fault. These waves travel away from the focus in all directions.
Seismic waves are both transverse (S waves) and longitudinal (P waves). The P and S waves can travel through the Earth where as the surface waves travel above or near the Earth's surface.
