Based on the epicenter and the time of the arrival of the first S-wave, the first P-wave will arrive at 1:22 pm.

From the information given, it was stated that the epicenter of an earthquake is located 6,500 kilometers away from a seismic station and that the first S-wave arrived at this seismic station at 1:30 p.m.

Therefore, it should be noted that the first P-wave will have arrived 8 minutes earlier. This will be:

= 1:30 pm - 8 minutes

= 1:22 pm.
