Ok well I've had a bit of trouble understanding this question
The velocity of the transverse waves produced by an earthquake is 6.17 km/s, while that of the longitudinal waves is 10.3039 km/s. A seismograph records the arival of the transverse waves 60.8 s after that of the longitudinal waves.
How far away was the earthquake? Answer in units of km
Yea i guess i just don't understand the way it's setup or something.
