| Abstract: | - Seismograph stations record the strength, arrival time, and duration of the different seismic waves.
- Materials: Time-Travel Chart from the ESRT, seismograms, drawing compass, pencil Procedure: 1) Do each earthquake epicenter location separately.
- a) Determine the arrival times of the P and S waves and record this data in the appropriate space in the Data Table for that earthquake.
- g) Now subtract the P wave Travel Time from the P wave arrival time to determine the Time of Origin of the earthquake.
- Seismograph Station Arrival (clock) Time Difference in arrival times (min.
- Analysis and Conclusions: 1) When a seismograph station is far away from the earthquake epicenter, what do you notice about the distance between the arrival ...
