What happens to an earthquake's S-waves when they strike the core?

AThey bounce off
BThey are absorbed
CThe change into P-waves
DThey change into L-waves

Verified Answer :

Answer:

B) They are absorbed

Explanation:

When they hit the liquid core, S-waves are no longer able to be detected. While P-waves bounce off the liquid core, S-waves are absorbed at the core.

Answer:

B) They are absorbed

Explanation:

B is correct because S waves can only travel through solid materials.  When they hit liquid materials they are absorbed in and undetectable.
