Properties of Compressional or P waves. The first kind of body wave is the P wave. This is the fastest kind of seismic wave their name derives for the fact that P is an abbreviation for primary, first wave to arrive. The P wave generally travel at speeds between 1 and 14 km/sec. The P wave can move through solid rock and fluids, like water or the liquid layers of the earth.
1 Wave velocity is the speed of the wave. 2  Velocities of normal ocean waves are about 90 km/hr while tsunamis have velocities up to 950 km/hr (about as fast as jet airplanes), and thus move much more rapidly across ocean basins. 3  The velocity of any wave is equal to the wavelength divided by the wave period.
