Answer the following question given this paragraph: 

Surface waves travel along the ground outward from an earthquake’s epicenter. Surface waves are the slowest of all seismic waves. They travel at 2.5 km (1.5 miles) per second. There are two types of surface waves. Love waves move side-to-side, much like a snake. Rayleigh waves produce a rolling motion as they move up and backwards ( Figure above ). Surface waves cause objects to fall and rise, while they are also swaying back and forth. These motions cause damage to rigid structures during an earthquake.


Q: What type of waves are the slowest of all seismic waves?


A:
surface waves
