graphs for earthquake – Estimate arrival times for p-waves and s-waves

(a) Estimate arrival times for p-waves and s-waves at these locations: a.) Tokyo b.) Sapporo

(b) Sketch the expected vibrations for three axes (East-West, North-South and Up-Down) for both Tokyo and Sapporo (that is, draw 6 plots). Your horizontal axis should be time, and your timescale should be realistic. What is your vertical axis? Scale your vertical axis so that it corresponds roughly to a Japanese Shindo-level 4 in Tokyo, and a Japanese Shindo-level 1 in Sapporo.
