Homework Help Overview

The original poster is tasked with formulating an equation that relates the piezoelectric effect to seismic waves generated during earthquakes. They aim to use concepts of magnitude and distance attenuation to assess the stress and strain on a piezoelectric system resulting from earthquake energy.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory, Assumption checking

Approaches and Questions Raised

  • Participants inquire about the resources the original poster has consulted and suggest that a purely logical approach may not be sufficient. They encourage exploring scientific literature to gain insights into established methodologies related to the problem.

Discussion Status

The discussion is ongoing, with participants providing guidance on seeking scientific articles to inform the original poster's approach. There is no explicit consensus on the methodology yet, as the original poster is still in the early stages of their exploration.

Contextual Notes

The original poster confirms that this inquiry is part of schoolwork, which may impose certain constraints on their approach and resources.

Is this for schoolwork? What resources have you been reading to try to come up with this?
 
Yes it is, so far I have only done it in a purely logical manner

Okay, I'll move your thread to the schoolwork forums then.

That's probably not the best way to approach this. Try searching for scientific articles on the subject to see how others have approached the problem. You could do the search with Google Scholar to narrow the results to scientific articles.
