    The s-wave is wave A. The p-wave is always going to be faster than the s-wave. Wave B starts at the velocity of about 8 km/s and wave A starts at about 4 km/s. Since wave A is moving slower, it is the s-wave. Wave A also reflected off the outer core and wave B refracted. The p-wave is wave B. The p-wave is always going to move faster than the s-wave. Wave B starts at the velocity of about 8 km/s and wave A starts at about 4 km/s. Since wave B is moving faster, it is the p-wave. The…
