Body waves travel through the interior of the Earth. Surface waves travel across the surface. Surface waves decay more slowly with distance than body waves which travel in three dimensions. Particle motion of surface waves is larger than that of body waves, so surface waves tend to cause more damage.

A block with mass ma = 14.0 kg on a smooth horizontal surface is connected by a thin cord that passes over a pulley to a second
Drupady [299]
<span>We can assume that the horizontal surface has no friction and the pulley is massless. We can use Newton's second law to set up an equation. F = Ma F is the net force M is the total mass of the system a is the acceleration a = F / M a = (mb)(g) / (ma + mb) a = (6.0 kg)(9.80 m/s^2) / (6.0 kg + 14.0 kg) a = 58.8 N / 20 kg a = 2.94 m/s^2 The magnitude of the acceleration of the system is 2.94 m/s^2</span>
