(Hint: The earthquake began at the epicenter.)Y.Y. local timeACTIVITY 4.2BLocating an EarthquakeFigure 4.5 shows seismograms for the same earthquake recorded at three locations-New York; Nome, Alaska;and Mexico City. Use this information to complete the following.1. Use Figure 4.5 and the travel-time graph in Figure 4.4to determine the distance between each station andthe epicenter. Write your answers in Table 4.1.2. Use Figure 4.6 and a drafting compass to draw acircle around each of the three stations. Make theradius (in miles) of each circle equal to the station'sdistance from the epicenter as determined above.(Use the scale on the map to set the radius on thedrafting compass.) The circles you draw shouldintersect at approximately one point. This point isthe epicenter. If they do not intersect at one point,find a point that is equidistant from the edges of thethree circles and use this as the epicenter. Labelthe epicenter on the map.3.
