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:
option D
Explanation:
Sunspots are the spot that appears on the sun, this spot appears darker than the surrounding surface of the sun.
Sun magnetic field goes through a cycle and this cycle is called the Sunspot cycle. Every 11 years the magnetic field of the sun completely flips. This sunspot cycle affects activity on the surface of the sun.
Sunspot cycle is the pattern of solar activity where an average number of sunspot gradually increase and decrease.
Hence, the correct answer is option D
Answer:
a=F/m
a=12N/3kg (here newton can be written as kgm/s^2 so kg will be cancelled)
a=4m/s^2

Explanation:
given
R = 1.5 cm
object distance, u = 1.1 cm
focal length of the ball, f = -R/2
= -1.5/2
= -0.75 cm
let v is the image distance
use, 1/u + 1/v = 1/f
1/v = 1/f - 1/u
1/v = 1/(-0.75) - 1/(1.1)
v = -0.446 cm <<<<<---------------Answer
magnification, m = -v/u
= -(-0.446)/1.1
= 0.405 <<<<<<<<<---------------Answer
The image is virtual
The image is upright
