Answer:

C. 6,000 km

Step-by-step explanation:

v = speed at S-wave travel through the earth = 8 km/sec

t = time of travel for the S-wave through the earth = 13 minutes = 13 x 60 seconds = 780 seconds (Since 1 minute = 60 seconds)

d = distance traveled by S-wave in the given time interval

Distance traveled by S-wave in the given time interval is given as

d = v t

inserting the above values in the formula

d = (8 km/sec) (780 sec)

d = 6240 km

the closest choice is 6000 km at option C

So Option C

Ratio 4:5
There are 9 total.
30 mins = 1800 secs.
1800 divided by 9 = 200
200 secs = 3mins 20secs
200 is one "part" of the ratio, so multiply it by 4, then 5

This is the important one

13mins, 20secs: 16mins 40secs
Distance is speed x time,
16mins x 4 = 64
40 secs = 2/3
x 4 = 1.6666
Distance to shop - 65.6m
