How do I find the distance from the epicenter? Please show me step by step of how to find the distance from the epicenter. See a

You have to look at the arrival time between the P and S waves. it looks like they already did it for you here. the answer is 1035 km.

I drew a couple extra lines to show you in more detail.

Let's say for example our p-wave arrived at t=4min and our s wave arrived at t=6.5 min. The time difference is 2.5 min. So you can either plot 4 and 6.5 and draw a line straight across like I did (green line and dotted green) or find the spot where the distance between the two lines is t = 2.5 min. We see the epicentral distance for the green line is about 1800km.

Try the yellow line yourself. you should get t values of about 4.5 and 8.5 at an epicentral distance of 2600km.

The high temperature in the upper thermosphere: a. produces a tremendous amount of heat transfer. b. would feel cold to humans d

timurjin [86]

Answer:

e. is produced by the absorption of UV radiation.

Explanation:

The thermosphere is a layer of Earth's atmosphere which is directly above the mesosphere and below the exosphere. It extends from about 85 to 500 km altitude above the earth.

In the thermosphere, the temperature is strongly dependent on the level of solar activity. When the Sun is very active and emitting more high energy radiation, the thermosphere becomes hotter by X-ray and UV radiation absorption.
