The answer is Carbon. Beyond being the only element listed here that is located in the second row, it is also in the fourteenth column of the table if you count from left to right. 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.

Answer:
a = 6 [m/s^2]
Explanation:
In order to calculate the acceleration of the skier, the following expression of kinematics must be used:
a = (v)/t
where:
v = velocity = 24 [m/s]
t = time = 4 [s]
a = 24/4 = 6 [m/s^2]
The force on a 64 k person decelerating on that rate would be :
F = ma
F = 64 kg x 30 x 9.8
= 18816 N

Answer: the magnetic wave will travel out of the screen.
Explanation:
Electric field direction is perpendicular to the magnetic field direction. Both are also perpendicular to the direction of the particles.
Using right hand rule to solve this problem,
This pointed finger depicts the electric field direction which the curly fingers depict the direction of the magnetic field. The pointed thumb will depict the direction in which the wave travel. Which is out of the screen.
