What is the difference in arrival times for a P wave and S wave that
have traveled 4000 km?


Sagot :

Answer:

5 minutes:40 seconds

Explanation:

The graph shows that the S-waves need about 12 minutes: 40 seconds to travel the same distance. Therefore, if the time separation between the arrival time of the P- and S-waves is 5 minutes:40 seconds, the epicenter must be 4000 km away.

i hope it helps:)
