How is the distance between a seismic station and the earthquake epicenter is determined?
The distance between a seismic station and the earthquake epicenter is determined from the S-P interval, which is the time difference between the time of arrival of the first P wave and the first S wave.
The earthquaked epicenter was located two time zones east of Chicago What time was it in the time zone containing the epicenter when the earthquake began?
Pacific time zone
What happens If you decrease rate of chemical reaction?
The time the reaction takes increases.
Is it that reaction distance increases with speed while the reaction time stays the same?
Yes, the reaction distances increases with speed while reaction time stays the same. for example the two-second rule.

What happens to a graph of time and distance as speed increases?
The graph of distance vs time increases exponentially as speed increases.
What is a travel-time curve used for?
To measure the distance from the epicenter.
How do you figure out the distance of an epicenter?
The distance of an epicenter from a seismograph station can determined by the time it takes for the seismic waves to reach each station. You need at least 3 seismic stations to record the event to determine this. The time taken for each seismic station to resisted the event will be different as they are different distances from the epicenter. The distance to the epicenter can then be calculated for each station and a epicenter can be determined by a triangulation from all stations that have registered the event.
A travel-time graph can be used to find?
the distance from a epicenter to an earthquake :)
If speed increases and time remains the same what happens to distance?
By increasing speed over a fixed period of time, you increase the distance you travel in that period of time. If you drive 20 mph for an hour, you go 20 miles. If you drive 30 mph for that same hour, you go 30 miles. Just like you knew you would.
A travel-time graph can be used to find the?
The distance of an earthquake epicenter from a seismic station. Using the Three point method, the distance from 3 seismic stations are used to locate the epicenter by triangulation.

Acceleating can be seen on a distance versus time graph?
Yes, it can be. It is indicated by the slope of the distance increases as time increases.
What is the relationship between lag time and distance from an earthquake's epicenter?
The more is the time taken and the distance recorded by the seismograph, the more is the effect of an earthquake:)
How does the total distance changes as the total time increases in case of uniformly motio?
For uniform motion, distance = velocity*time where uniform implies that the velocity is a constant. Therefore distance = v*time and so, if time increases by t, the distance increases by vt.
What is a seismic travel time curve?
A seismic travel time curve describes the relation between the travel time of a seismic wave and the epicentral distance. It is used to calculate the calculate the distance of the earthquake's epicenter from the seismograph.
