how many seismograph stations benifit earthquake victims after the damage occurs
How many seismograph do we have in the world?
There are 14838 seismograph stations of which 11559 are open and 3279 are closed, as of 11th March at 2030 UTC/GMT. Source: United States Geographical Survey.
How many seismograph stations does it take to find an exact location of an earthquake's epicenter?
It takes 3 stations.
What are 10 cities seismograph stations are in?
yes
What is the fewest number of seismograph stations that are needed to locate the epicenter of an earthquake?
TWO
What are the fewest number of seismograph stations that are needed to locate the epicenter of an earthquake?
three
How many seismograph station are needed to determined the location of an epicenter?
Three stations would best pinpoint the epicentre by triangulation.
How many seismograph data points are required to locate an earthquake's epicenter?
At least 3 stations are required to find the epicenter
Can seismograph stations in Europe or Asia or anywhere in the world detect the p or s-waves?
yes because the waves sometimes travel very fast
What types of waves are the first waves to reach seismograph stations?
P-waves are the first seismic waves to arrive at a seismograph station.
Can geologists use data from two seismograph stations to locate an earthquakes epicenter?
yes it can
Why three seismograph stations are needed to determine the location of an epicenter?
Three seismograph stations are needed to determine the location of an epicenter because each seismograph can determine distance to the epicenter but not direction. The point where the three circles intersect is the epicenter of the earthquake. +++ Focus - not epicentre, which is the point of maximum movement on the surface above the slip itself.
