How do seismic stations record data on the other side of the planet?

The seismic stations record data on the other side of the planet by disturbing the timing of the electrical current. The horizontal magnetic directions are hit by a shock wave, allowing information about the area closer to the earthquake. The seismologists average their data and do final calculations. Within two weeks, they have their data.


Will the south side of earth have night when the north is day?

Yes, the Earth rotates on its axis, causing different parts of the planet to experience day and night at different times. When one side of the Earth is facing the sun (experiencing day), the opposite side is facing away from the sun (experiencing night).


How would life on Earth be different if Earth stopped revolving?

The earth at the equator is spinning at about 1000 miles per hour. If the earth suddenly stopped spinning, everything on earth would continue moving at 1000 miles per hour, including all humans, animals, buildings and oceans. Nearly all life on earth would be extinguished in a mater of minutes. See the link below for more information.


Scientists on the side of Earth opposite the epicenter of an earthquake detect mainly?

Scientists on the side of Earth opposite the epicenter of an earthquake detect mainly secondary or S-waves, as primary or P-waves are unable to travel through the inner core of the Earth. S-waves are the slower of the two seismic waves and arrive after the initial P-wave, providing valuable information about the earthquake's location and magnitude.


What may have caused Uranus' unique axis of rotation?

One hypothesis is that Uranus was impacted by a massive object in the early solar system, causing it to tilt on its side. Another possibility is the gravitational influence of a nearby planet, such as Neptune, may have contributed to Uranus' axial tilt.

Any half of a planet with a great circle as a boundary can be called a hemisphere. Most often the equator is used as a boundary dividing the planet into a northern hemisphere and a southern hemisphere.
