Use a video on seismic waves to explain the differences between s and p waves, as well as the details that they provide about the composition of the rock.
Khan Academy
Refraction of Seismic Waves
Mr. Khan uses a metaphor of a car to help explain the change in direction of waves as they hit a boundary between two mediums. He then goes on to explain the relationship between the structure and density of the earth and the behavior of...
