An earthquake releases two types of traveling seismic waves, called transverse and

1083.173 km

Explanation:

Speed of longitudinal waves = 9.1 km/s

Speed of transverse waves = 5.7 km/s

Time taken by the longitudinal wave is t

Time taken by the transverse wave is t+71

Distance = Speed × Time

Distance traveled by the longitudinal wave

Distance traveled by the transverse wave

Since both distances are equal

The time taken by the longitudinal wave is 119.03 seconds

Distance traveled by the longitudinal wave

The earthquake is 1083.173 km away

0.429m=429 mm

Explanation:

Since there are 1,000 millimeters per meter, you need to multiply by 1,000 to convert from meters to millimeters.
