The latitude of any location on Earth is the angle formed by the two rays down from the center of Earth to the location and to the equator. The ray through the location is the initial ray. Use 3960 miles as the radius of the Earth. Suppose City A is due north of City B. Find the distance between City A (north lattitude 41 degrees 17' N) and City B (latitude 32 degrees 47') the distance between City A and...

Two points A and B on the surface of the Earth are at the same longitude and θ = 55.0° apart in latitude as shown in the figure below.

Two points A and B on the surface of the Earth are at the same longitude and θ = 55.0° apart in latitude as shown in the figure below. Suppose an earthquake at point A creates a P wave that reaches point B by traveling straight through the body of the Earth at a constant speed of 7.20 km/s. The earthquake also radiates a Rayleigh wave that travels at 3.05 km/s. In addition to P and S waves, Rayleigh waves...
