The general rule is to multiply the time difference (in seconds) between the arriving p and s waves by 8 km/s. The result will give the distance to the quakes origin. In the case of a 40 second delay the distance would be 320 km or roughly 200 miles. It should be noted that the method detailed here is used for quakes occuring less than 200 km away.

How is Potassium argon used to date the age of a rock?
Potassium-argon dating is a radiometric dating method that determines the age of rocks by measuring the ratio of potassium-40 to argon-40. This technique is based on the fact that potassium-40 decays into argon-40 over time at a known rate. By comparing the amount of argon-40 present in a rock sample to the amount of potassium-40, scientists can calculate the age of the rock.

How far did a ball travel that had a speed of 40 ms for 6 seconds?
To find the distance traveled by the ball, you can use the formula: distance = speed × time. Given a speed of 40 m/s and a time of 6 seconds, the calculation is: distance = 40 m/s × 6 s = 240 meters. Therefore, the ball traveled 240 meters.
