Locating an Earthquake Interactivity
How can you find the epicenter of an area earthquake?
Record Data and Observations
Part 1
1. Record the information from each seismograph station as it is revealed within the
activity
Seismic
Station
P-Wave
Arrival time
S-Wave
Arrival Time
S-P interval

2. According to the data table, which type of wave reached station A first, the P waves
or the S waves? Would you expect this fact to hold for data from other seismic
stations? Explain your answer.

HELP PLEASE ILL MARK BRAINLIEST Locating An Earthquake Interactivity How Can You Find The Epicenter Of An Area Earthquake Record Data And Observations Part 1 1 class=

Sagot :

Answer:

(You find the epicenter of an area earthquake by using triangulation)

But alright moving towards the graph, in the top row will be 'a' for the seismic station, for the P-wave arrival time (for the top row) it'll be 09:20:42 AM, for the s-wave arrival time (of the top row still) will be 09:21:09 AM, for the S-P interval (in sec) will be 27, and for the Distance to epicenter (km) will be 283 :)

now moving onto the second row, the seismic station is now 'b' , the p-wave arrival time is 09:21:27 AM, the s-wave arrival time will be 09:22:27 AM, the S-P interval (in seconds) is 60, the distance to epicenter is 632,

now moving onto the third row, the seismic station is 'c', the p-wave arrival time is 09:21:49 AM, the s-wave arrival time is 09:23:05 AM, the S-P interval is 76, and the distance to epicenter is 806

that's all for the graph :)

okay so now, for the second part to your question "according to the data table, which type of wave reached station A first, the P waves or the S waves? would you expect this fact to hold data from other seismic" okay so looking at what I've already said earlier about the tables it should be pretty easy to figure out but I'm sure you just want an answer so you can finish your schoolwork so i wont go on to long about it lol, the answer would be the p-waves got there first, and yes it can hold this for data on other seismic station, it also asked you to explain your answer so here's that: in 'b' station and 'c' station the p-wave always reached the stations before the s-wave.

Explanation:

I dont know if you do online school or go to virtual school house, but i do  and my teacher there posted a video in the place where we turn in our work showing us the different tables, anyways i hope this helped :) !!
