One seismogram indicates the distance to the what?
[ "researchers", "epicenter", "the moon", "houses" ]
B
One seismogram indicates the distance to the epicenter. This is determined by the P-and S-wave arrival times. If a quake is near the seismograph, the S-waves arrive shortly after the P-waves. If a quake is far from the seismograph, the P-waves arrive long before the S-waves. The longer the time is between the P-and S-w...
