Answer:
<em>That is, the wave amplitude in a level 6 earthquake is 10 times greater than in a level 5 earthquake, and the amplitude increases 100 times between a level 7 earthquake and a level 9 earthquake. The amount of energy released increases 31.7 times between whole number values.</em>

Explanation:
Both P and S-waves travels as body waves within the earth.
They are seismic waves. P-waves are longitudinal waves and as such can travel through any material medium. S-waves are transverse waves can only travel through solids.
- If the earth is uniformly solid, at the seismograph station, both waves would be picked.
- Based on travel time, p-waves will reach the station first before s-waves.
The ozone layer protects us from the harmful emission of rays directly to the environment. Absent this added layer of protection we humans will be susceptible to various forms of cancer due to over radiation and eye problems such as cataracts. It is estimated that 10% of the world's population will face the consequences of ozone depletion this year and these numbers were continue to rise as time progresses.
