Respuesta :
The time interval between the arrival of the P- and S-waves, which is used to calculate the distance from the earthquake to the seismic station, and the amplitude of the S-waves, which is used to calculate the magnitude of the earthquake, are among the critical parameters for the measurement of magnitude that are labeled.

Reviewing what we already know about body waves and examining surface waves are necessary before we look more thoroughly at magnitude. P waves, or primary or compression waves, resembling the compression of a spring's coils, and S waves, or secondary or shear waves, are two different forms of body waves (like the flick of a rope). Figure 11.3.1 displays a sample of P and S seismic wave data. The time interval between the arrival of the P- and S-waves, which is used to calculate the distance from the earthquake to the seismic station, and the amplitude of the S-waves, which is used to calculate the magnitude of the earthquake, are among the critical parameters for the measurement of magnitude that are labeled.
