Question

Describe how scientists can locate the epicenter of an earthquake.

Answer 1

The difference in arrival time between the two types of seismic wave can be used to calculate the distance of theearthquake's epicenter from the seismometer, as the further away anearthquake is, the greater the lag time between the detection of the S waves relative to the P waves

Answer 2

The difference in arrival time between the two types of seismic wave can be used to calculate the distance of theearthquake's epicenter from the seismometer, as the further away anearthquake is, the greater the lag time between the detection of the S waves relative to the P waves
