A seismogram shows that P waves travel
P waves
distance to the epicenter of an earthquake
surface waves
three
days or years before the major earthquaake
open the book to pg 225, and examine figure 8A
faster than S waves
P waves
Small shocks that preceede a major earthquake occur

Using a graph similar to the one on page 225, you will be given a distance to the epicenter, you will be asked to determine the arrival times of the P and S waves. To get this question correct you should
P waves
distance to the epicenter of an earthquake
surface waves
three
days or years before the major earthquaake
open the book to pg 225, and examine figure 8A
faster than S waves
P waves
A travel time graph can be used to find the
P waves
distance to the epicenter of an earthquake
surface waves
three
days or years before the major earthquaake
open the book to pg 225, and examine figure 8A
faster than S waves
