1) One seismogram represents the distance to the epicenter (indicated by one circle). This is determined by the arrival times of the P and S waves. When the seismograph is near to a quake, the S-waves arrive shortly after the P-waves.

2) A single or double recording station could only measure distance, not direction; a full circle is drawn around the station to allow for all possibilities.

3) Triangulation is a technique used by scientists to determine the location of an earthquake's epicenter. When seismic data is collected from at least three different locations, the epicenter may be established by where the data links. A network of seismographs positioned in various directions records every earthquake.

4) A seismograph is a device used to record seismic waves caused by an earthquake, explosion, or another Earth-shaking event.

5) In the aftermath of an earthquake, the P waves go ahead of the S waves. As a result, the longer the time difference between the arrival of the P and S waves, the greater the distance between a seismic recording station and the earthquake epicenter.

6) Surface waves frequently induce more ground motion than body waves and hence cause more harm.

<h3>What exactly is a seismograph?</h3>

Seismometers are measuring instruments that detect ground noises and vibrations caused by earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and explosions. Seismographs usually consist of a seismograph, a timing device, and a recording device.

Modern seismometers are capable of detecting ground movements as small as a few nanometres - a millionth of a millimeter. The magnitude of the earthquake is calculated using the measured amplitudes and its closeness to the hypocenter.

I'm working on a lab report on water erosion on edg lol
melomori [17]

Some facts about Water erosion :

Water erosion is the detachment and removal of soil material by water. The process may be natural or accelerated by human activity. ... Water erosion wears away the earth's surface. Sheet erosion is the more-or-less uniform removal of soil from the surface.

Water and Wind Erosion (cause)

Water erosion is the removal of soil by water and transportation of the eroded materials away from the point of removal. Water action due to rain erodes the soil and causes activities like gully, rill, and stream erosion leading to the downstream effects of flooding and sedimentation.

Rna in cells differs from dna in that ___________________. select one:
irinina [24]
Hello! 

RNA in cells differs from DNA in that it is single-stranded and can fold up into a variety of structures.

RNA is the abbreviation for RiboNucleic Acid. It is a biological molecule that fulfills an important role by copying the information stored in the DNA (DeoxyriboNucleic Acid) and transporting it to the different proteins by folding into different shapes. Its name come from a Ribose molecule that is present in this single-stranded molecule.  

Viruses don't have DNA, only RNA. They only replicate in the host's cells by copying their own RNA information. 

Have a nice day!
