Answer:

The correct answers are "They move side to side", "They arrive after P waves" and "They travel through solids".

Explanation:

S-waves are one of the two types of seismic waves, named after "secondary waves" for being the second waves that arrive to a seismic center after the P-waves (primary waves). S-waves move side to side, therefore they are considered transverse waves. S-waves move through the body of solids, unlike other waves that move in the surface of the objects.
