How far can you travel in 30 minutes if you are driving at a constant speed of 3 miles per minute?
You can travel 2.375 miles.
If a P-wave arrives 4 minutes after an earthquake occurs at the epicenter how far is the epicenter?
P-waves travel between 5-8 km/s. As such the epicentre could be anywhere between 1200 and 1920 km away.
How far an avalanche can travel?
Avalanches can travel as far as a few metres, to the full lenght of a mountain side, depending on where the avalanche started, and how steep the mountain is.
How earthquake are located?
I'm pretty sure that an earthquake gives off a seismic wave and that seismic wave is then written on a seismograph that tells how strong it was and what kind of wave it was. with that knowledge a scientist can estimate how far away the earthquake was when it started and where it was
How far does a zebra travel in a day?
depends how much sleep it's had
How far does a primary wave travel in 10 miniutes?
3,000
How far does a secondary wave travel in 10 minutes?
2000 km
How far does secondary wave travel in 10 minutes?
2000 km
How far does a primary waves travel in 10 minutes?
3,050
How far does a primary wave travel 10 min?
You need to multiply the speed of the wave by the time. You may also need to convert the units, to make them compatible. For instance, if the speed of the wave is expressed in meters per second, you would need to convert the minutes to seconds.
How far does a secondary wave travel in 10 mins?
200 miles
How far would an S wave travel in 45 seconds?
in about three miles
If you travel 1 mile in 6 minutes how far do you travel in a minute?
880 feet.
How far can a deer travel in 15 minutes?
5 miles
When the particles of the medium are far apart that part of the wave is called a?
That is a primary or compressional wave. It is called compressional because the particles move toward and away from each other. It is called a primary wave because it arrives first. Sound waves in water or air are examples of primary waves. The other type of wave is a secondary or shear wave. It is called secondary because it travels more slowly and arrives later than a primary wave. It is called a shear wave because the particles move at right angles to the direction of wave motion. The side-to-side motion of a Slinky is an example of a shear wave. The other, other type of wave is a tertiary wave, which is a channeled saound wave trapped in the SoFAR channel in the ocean. Because this is typically the third type of wave identified on seismograms, this is also known as a tertiary wave or "t-phase". Love Waves and Rayleigh waves are special cases of mixed-mode waves that travel along the surface of the Earth.
How far would you travel in four minutes at 500 miles per hour?
You would travel 33.3 miles every four minutes.
How far can you travel in 30 minutes if you are driving at a constant speed of 3 miles per minute?
You can travel 2.375 miles.
