How can triangulation be used to find the earthquake? (Include the relationship between the speed of the p and s waves in your explanation.) The seismometers will only work out how far the wave has travelled and not the direction. By information from three seismometers, you can calculate the epicentre, which is where all three distances meet: this process is called triangulation. In the diagram (to the of the faults, label the type of fault with the following terms: strike-slip, reverse, and normal. Why are seismic of an earthquake more strongly felt at the epicenter of an earthquake? As the travel through the Earth, they lose energy. The closer you are to the epicenter, the stronger the earthquake. Annotate a world map showing plate boundaries by type and hotspots. In Figure 3-1, label the process or processes would be occurring in the blank parts of the rock cycle. If granite undergoes high temperatures and high pressures at depth within Earth, what type of rock will be formed? Assume that the granite does not melt. Metamorphic Rock The groups of rocks are classified by... how they are formed What is the difference between and lava? magma is inside the Earth, lava is at the Earth’s surface. Where would the energy source be found which drives the processes that form igneous and metamorphic rocks? The convection current within the mantel The process that occurs when physical forces rock into smaller pieces without changing the rock’s chemical composition is called Mechanical/physical weathering Which weathering process involves the constant freezing and thawing of water? Frost/Ice wedging (mechanical) List several types of chemical weathering. Acid rain can dissolution of limestone Oxidation = Rusting of iron into iron oxides Hydrolisis = water breaking down the chemical structure of a rock/mineral List several types of mechanical weathering. frost wedging exfoliation - rock breaking into smaller pieces animal wear How would acid rain cause the inscription on a marble gravestone to become harder and harder to read over time?
