no a p wave is faster than s wave
The S-wave, or secondary wave, always arrives after the P-wave. S-waves are slower than P-waves and are the second wave to arrive during an earthquake.
A P wave is a type of seismic wave generated by an earthquake that travels the fastest through the Earth's layers. It is the first wave to arrive at a seismograph station and is known as a compressional wave because it pushes and pulls the rock particles as it moves.
P-wave particles move in the same direction as the wave's propagation, which is the direction of energy transfer. This movement is back and forth in the direction of the wave.
The first wave of an ECG is the P wave, which represents atrial depolarization as the electrical impulse spreads through the atria. It is the initial wave seen in a normal heart rhythm.

Both, first the P wave Then the S wave.
Longitudinal Waves
Yes. P-waves are known as primary waves and are a compressional or longitudinal wave.
They call it the Primary wave or a P-wave
The primary body wave that is a longitudinal wave is the P wave. P waves are compressional waves that travel through solid and liquid materials by causing particles to move in the same direction of wave propagation.
Primary Wave (P wave)
p-wave s-wave l-wave
The primary body wave that is a longitudinal wave is the P-wave (primary wave). It is the fastest seismic wave and travels through the Earth's interior by compressing and expanding the rock in the direction of the wave's propagation.
To find the P-wave arrival time, you need to identify the initial sharp upward deflection on the seismogram. This indicates the arrival of the P-wave. Measure the time from the origin of the seismic event to the arrival of the P-wave to determine the P-wave arrival time.
