DAILY DOUBLE You may wager some or all of your money.
What is the thickness of the outer core? 2200 - 2300 km
What is the name of the interface between the crust and the plastic mantle? The MOHO
How far will P waves travel in 11 minutes 20 seconds? 8000 km
A seismic station is 4000 km from the epicenter of an earthquake. How long after P waves arrive will the S waves arrive at the same station? 5 minutes 40 seconds
It takes P waves 11 minutes and 20 seconds to travel from the epicenter of an earthquake to a seismic station. How long will it take S waves from the same earthquake to reach that seismic station? 20 minutes and 40 seconds
S waves from an earthquake arrive at a seismic station at 2:15:20 PM. If the seismic station is located 2000 km from the epicenter, at what time did the earthquake occur? 2:08:00 PM
What is the difference in arrival time between P and S waves at a distance of 2600 km from an epicenter? 4 minutes
As the distance from an epicenter increases, the difference in arrival time between P & S waves ........... Increases
An earthquake occurs at 3:30:00 AM. At what time will S waves arrive at a seismic station located 6500 km from the epicenter of the quake? 3:48:00 AM
The difference in arrival times between P and S waves is 5 minutes and 20 seconds. How far from the epicenter is the seismic station located? 3600 km
The difference in arrival times between P & S waves is 7 minutes and 20 seconds. If the P waves arrived at the station at 6:45:00 PM, at what time did the earthquake occur? 6:36:00 PM
What term is used to describe the area in the diagram where "No waves" are recorded? Shadow Zone
The location inside the earth where the earthquake actually occurs is called the........ Focus
Why does zone 3 in the diagram receive P waves but no S waves? S waves cannot travel through the liquid outer core
Which letter in the diagram represents the epicenter of the quake? Location C
What kind of plate boundary is depicted in the diagram? A transform boundary
