The time taken for the first p-wave to reach the same seismic station is approximately 13 minutes.

<h3>Time of travel of the P-wave</h3>

In rock, S waves generally travel about 60% the speed of P waves, and the S wave always arrives after the P wave.

<h3>Relationship between speed and time</h3>

v ∝ 1/t

v₁t₁ = v₂t₂

t₁/t₂ = v₂/v₁

t₁/t₂ = 0.6v₁/v₁

t₁/t₂ =  0.6

t₁ = 0.6t₂

t₁ = 0.6 x 22 mins

t₁ = 13.2 mins

Thus, the time taken for the first p-wave to reach the same seismic station is approximately 13 minutes.

The movement of protons through atp synthase occurs from the
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

cytoplasm and channel gates

Explanation:

The movement originates from the cytoplasm. This is the fluid medium through which ions are shuttle from one place to another. However, though simple as it might appear to be, the movement requires carrier proteins. The are proteins that facilitate in the movement of the ions. These proteins have specially controlled gates called channel proteins. These are regulated proteins that open and close based on hydrogen ion concentration. These proteins are able to facilitate the movement of ATP molecules.
