Earthquakes produce two kinds of seismic
waves: he longitudinal primary waves (called
P waves) and the transverse secondary waves
(called S waves). Both S waves and P waves
travel through Earths crust and mantle, but
at different speeds; the P waves are always
faster than the S waves, but their exact speeds
depend on depth and location. For the purpose of this exercise, we assume the P waves
speed to be 9930 m/s while the S waves travel
at a slower speed of 5230 m/s.
If a seismic station detects a P wave and
then 96.2 s later detects an S wave, how far
away is the earthquake center?
Answer in units of km.

In order to be able to determine her speed,
a skydiver carries a tone generator. A friend
on the ground at the landing site has equipment for receiving and analyzing sound waves.
While the skydiver is falling at terminal speed,
her tone generator emits a steady tone of
1500 Hz.
If her friend on the ground (directly beneath the skydiver) receives waves of frequency 2580 Hz, what is the skydivers speed
of descent? Assume the air is calm and the velocity of sound in air is 343 m/s, independent
of altitude.
Answer in units of m/s.
