Students learn about how seismic wavespropagate and how recording the waves allow scientists to understand where and in whatdirection a fault ruptured during an earthquake. Students complete a worksheet in order to gainan understanding of the process of triangulation of a quake’s epicenter and the different types ofseismic waves.2.2.2.4.

Using this information,the students determine the theoretical amount of time it takes the robot to react to objects in frontof it using simple unit cancellation and conversion. Next, the students perform the experimentand compare their experimental results vis-à-vis the theoretical values. This leads to a discussionabout the temperature- and altitude-dependence of the speed of sound in air. To scale the lessonto the middle school level, the students are given object detection threshold values in inches,asked to convert them to centimeters, and perform experimental investigations to determine theachieved object detection distance in centimeters
