Which type of seismic waves result from interference between s waves and p waves?

a. rayleigh waves
b. rayleigh waves and love waves
c. dispersive waves
d. love waves

The seismic waves that result from the interference of P and S waves are the Rayleigh waves.

Explanation:

Both the P waves and the S waves fall in the category of body waves that travel through the interiors of Earth. Because the P waves travel about 60% faster than the S waves, they reach to the surface of the Earth before the S waves do. The S waves follow the P waves to reach the surface and create a rolling effect like that of sea waves. This interference of the P and the S waves results in the formation of Rayleigh waves.
