You will feel the s-wave 12.4 seconds after you felt the p-wave.

<h3>How to find the difference in time?</h3>

The waves must travel 250 km, we know that the p-wave travels with a velocity of 6.3km/s. The time it takes to travel that distance is given by:

250km/( 6.3km/s)  = 39.68s

At this point is when you feel the p-wave.

The s-wave travels at 4.8 km/s, than it will take:

250km/(4.8km/s)  = 52.08 s

The difference in time is:

d = 52.08s - 39.68s = 12.4 s

This means that you will feel the s-wave 12.4 seconds after you felt the p-wave.
