Which semester sick waves stay on Earth's surface? please help me this is the hardest question on my homework.

Answer 1

Answer:

The seismic waves that stay on the Earth's surface are called surface waves.

Explanation:

• The waves that are formed near the Earth's surface and are sandwiched between the surface of the Earth and the atmosphere are known as surface waves.

• These waves are not absorbed back by the surface or do not even mix up with the atmosphere easily.

• Thus they stay on the surface of the Earth for a long time after they are generated.
