Question

When P- and S-waves reach the surface, the ground vibrates, and anything built on it is shaken in directions that depend on which wave type is involved and the distance from the epicenter. The figure below shows the arrival of P-, S-, L- and R-waves at a skyscraper.

In which direction will each of the buildings move in response to the different types of waves?
