P and S waves from an earthquake travel at different speeds, and this difference helps in locating the earthquake “epicenter” (where the disturbance took place). (A) If an earthquake occurs and these two waves arrive at a particular seismic station with the P wave 2.0 min ahead of the S wave, then how far away was the earthquake? Assume typical speeds of 8.5 km/s and 5.5 km/s for P and S waves, respectively. For part A i found 1.9 x...

S and P waves from an earthquake travel at different speeds, and this difference helps in the determination of the earthquake "epicenter" (where the disturbance took place). (a) Assuming typical speeds of 8.0 km/s and 5.7 km/s for P and S waves, respectively, how far away did the earthquake occur if a particular seismic station detects the arrival of these two types of waves 5.0 min apart? 5947840 KM IS INCCORECT WHAT IS THE CORRECT ANSWER?   km (b) Is one...

An earthquake emits both S-waves and P-waves which travel at different speeds through the Earth. A P=wave travels at 9000 m/s and an S-wave travels at 5000 m/s. If the P-waves are received at a seismic station 1 minute before an S-wave arrives, how far away is the earthquake center?
