Explanation:

Given parameters:

Distance of the seismic station from Blue mountain lake = 1200km

Unknown:

Time  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we must know that velocity is the displacement divide by time:

              Velocity = \frac{Displacement}{time taken}

Since we are looking for time, lets make it the subject of the expression;

        Time taken = \frac{displacement }{velocity}

velocity of the wave is a consant = 6km/s

Time taken = \frac{1200}{6} = 200s
