where is the epicenter of this hypothetical earthquake ​

Asked by nuranabarahim31

Answer (1)

Answer:To determine the epicenter of a hypothetical earthquake, I need more information. Usually, locating an epicenter involves:1. Data from at least three seismic stations — showing:Arrival times of P-waves (primary waves) and S-waves (secondary waves).The difference in arrival times helps calculate the distance of each station from the epicenter.2. Triangulation — Once distances from three or more stations are known, circles are drawn around each station with a radius equal to that distance. The point where all circles intersect is the epicenter.---If you provide:The P-wave and S-wave arrival times at three or more stations,Or the distance to the epicenter from those stations,…I can help you calculate or pinpoint the epicenter!Would you like to simulate this with example data?
