A rift valley is formed when divergent boundary occurs on land.

Given the rising convection current of magma, plates move apart along the divergent plate boundary.

As the plates move apart,the tensional force would cause crack on land,and as time pass, the crack would enlarge to form a rift valley.

One of the example is Rhine rift valley in Germany.

Hope it helps!

Ostrovityanka [42]

For earthquakes, there is a lapsed time between the arrival of the p-wave and the s-wave, because the waves travel at different speeds. The length of this period of time determine the distance to the epicenter.

Earthquakes create seismic waves. P waves are faster than S waves. As the P and S waves move out from an earthquake, the P waves get ahead of the S waves. The distance of a seismic station from an earthquake can be determined from the time difference between the time of arrival of the first P wave and the first S wave.
