Question

When you are finished, match the labeled portions of the seismogram below with the terms that best describe them. Rayleigh waves Surface waves S-waves Distance from Epicenter Love waves P-S Lag Time P-waves If the first P-wave arrives at a seismic station at 10:05:04am and the first S-wave arrives at 10:05:49am, what is the P-S lag time (in seconds) for that station? Do NOT include units in your response. Write only the numerical answer with no decimal point. (For example, if the lag time is 60 seconds, input your answer as 60 not 60.0) Using the graph below (which is Figure 4 on p. 14-9 in your lab), answer the following question. When interpreting the graph, it may help to ignore the x-axis label that says "Degrees of arc" and instead Use the x-axis label that is marked in "Distance" instead. (If you 're stuck, try re-watching the video from Question #5 for additional help.)

Explanation / Answer

Question 7

Answers

P waves arrive first on seismograph and later arrives the s waves, so in between them there is a p s lag time occur.
