Question
the diagram shows circles drawn by geologists trying to determine the location of an earthquakes epicenter. what does each star on the map represent? location of an epicenter location of a focus location of a seismograph location of a wave
To find an earthquake's epicenter, geologists use data from seismographs at different locations. Each circle is drawn using the distance from a seismograph to the epicenter, and the star marks the site of that seismograph. The epicenter is the intersection of the circles, the focus is underground, and waves are the energy vibrations, not marked by stars.
