Help Wanted: Seismologist Introduction: How do seismologists determine the location of an earthquake from seismograms? By using triangulation you will be able to determine the epicentre of the earthquake. You will use four seismograms to determine the location of the earthquake’s epicentre, and you will determine the magnitude of the earthquake. Part A: Determining Epicentre: a. On the first seismogram, use the second scale on the bottom to determine the P-S lag time (difference in ti...

Praxis PT 2 Middle School Science Questions and Answers Already Passed 10. In cold weather, it is more difficult to make people comfortable in a room with a high ceiling than in a room with a low ceiling primarily because Cold air is more dense than warm air is correct. Since cold air is more dense than warm air, convection currents will develop, with warmer air rising to the ceiling and cooler air dropping toward the floor. When the ceiling is high, there will be a greater temperature d...
