<span>P waves 

P-waves are sometimes called pressure waves, and sometimes they are called longitudinal waves. P-waves are transmitted through the Earth’s interior with a backwards and forwards motion along the line of travel, by alternating compression and dilatation. A jack hammer creates P-waves. They are capable of passing through any type of material they encounter, including the liquid of the Earth’s outer core, although they 
will be bent and deflected when they pass across the boundaries separating 
layers of different densities.
