Your partner wants to test your Physics skills by playing a treasure hunt that will lead you to your anniversary gift from them. They left this sole clue that would lead you to the surprise:
"Where there is ruin, there is hope for a treasure."
- Rumi.
I know you've been wanting to practice your Physics so I chose something that might help you. Use these clues to find your gift.
Grab your phone and open your compass. Go to the park entrance and face the north direction.
Then, walk straight ahead towards the first bench you see, about 70 meters from the entrance.
Face east then turn as you count about 63 º degrees towards the north direction and you'll see a tree with a birdhouse near the bank of the river, just about 307 meters from the bench. Go there.
As you turn to your left, walk along the side of the river until you reach the gazebo, about 805 meters.
I'll be waiting for you there, like I have always and will always be.
Curious about the length you covered while all…

If the lag time between P- and S-waves is 10.8 minutes, how fast are the S-waves traveling (in km/s)? Using the shadow of S-waves you determine that the radius of the core is 55% of the Earth's 6,378-km radius. How many kilometers from the surface is this (in km)?
