One way to do it is she could right down the data that she got
C
Explanation:
that's just what I learned in school
Let point A be 0.0 miles (first city)
Let point B be 160.5 miles (first city to second city)
Let point C be 28.5 miles (first city to mail stop)
Take C – A = C [28.5 - 0.0 = 28.5] (This checks the distance between city 1 and Mail stop)
Then Take B – C = Distance from the first city to the second city [160.5 - 28.5 = 132 Miles]
Answer: The Mail stop is 132 miles from the Second City.
Solve for "x"
X=force
18/6=x/9
cross multiply
162=6x
x=27
Hope this helps
Scientists measure the time between the arrival of an earthquake's __P____ and ___S____ waves to help determine the distance between the recording seismograph and the earthquake epicenter.
Explanation:
P- (compressional) and S- (shear) waves produced in earthquakes travel at different speeds. P waves are faster than S waves and hence will be detected first by a seismograph after an earthquake. The further away a seismograph is from the epicenter of an earthquake, the longer the time difference between the two (2) waves will be.
Using several, at least 3, seismographs located at different geoghraphical locations and detecting earthquakes, geologists can extrapolate the epicenter of an earthquake using the time differences in arrivals of the two waves in each of the seismographs, using the mathematics of triangulation.
