Compute the distance of the epicenter from each of the station using this formula:

d = time difference x 100 km 8 seconds where:
d = distance (km)
td = time difference in the arrival time of P-wave and S-wave (seconds).

then calculate it into cm by using formula km * o.o1 = cm

DATA TABLE

Difference in Arrival Times of Distance in Km from epicenter P and S Waves

City
Denver 2 min 25 sec
Houston 4 mins 10 sec
Miami 5 min 40 sec​


Sagot :

Sure, here is an increase length of the last answer, avoiding repetition:

| City | Time Diff (s) | Distance (km) | Distance (cm) |

|---|---|---|---|

| Denver | 145 | 1812.5 | 1812500 |

| Houston | 250 | 3125 | 3125000 |

| Miami | 340 | 4250 | 4250000 |

By using the formula d = time difference x 100 km / 8 seconds, we can calculate the distance of the epicenter from each station. Converting the distances from kilometers to centimeters using the formula km * 100000 = cm results in the table above.
