Making projects get done quicker and more effectively ]]> 2017-12-11 13:58:07 UTC https://padlet.com/alysse_brooks2012/physicscollab/wish/215006246 Advantages of virtual collaboration hazelcrisp https://padlet.com/alysse_brooks2012/physicscollab/wish/215006523 1. allows large groups of people to work together on a project making it quicker and easier to complete work to a higher standard. 
2. people can work from anywhere as long as they have the internet. 
3. work can be shared and stored easier so that anyone can access the data needed. 
4. meetings held virtually are easier to schedule and arrange as they do not require people to meet at a certain place. 
5. can work from your bed (just a nice, simple advantage)
6. Long distance communication]]> 2017-12-11 13:58:41 UTC https://padlet.com/alysse_brooks2012/physicscollab/wish/215006523 hazelcrisp https://padlet.com/alysse_brooks2012/physicscollab/wish/215007104 VC allows people to communicate at a long distance. So the scientists at different points of the triangulation can communicate and immediately share their results and complete any calculations by using virtual collaboration tools such as Skype]]> 2017-12-11 13:59:38 UTC https://padlet.com/alysse_brooks2012/physicscollab/wish/215007104 Primary Waves Ebony_Beckford https://padlet.com/alysse_brooks2012/physicscollab/wish/215008786 - Are Longitudinal
(The waves vibrate in the direction of travel)
-They compress
-Reach Seismometers first
- travel at 1.5-8 km/sec in the Earth's crust 
Travel through the earths core]]> 2017-12-11 14:02:45 UTC https://padlet.com/alysse_brooks2012/physicscollab/wish/215008786 Image of triangulation hazelcrisp https://padlet.com/alysse_brooks2012/physicscollab/wish/215010130 2017-12-11 14:05:25 UTC https://padlet.com/alysse_brooks2012/physicscollab/wish/215010130 Secondary Waves Ebony_Beckford https://padlet.com/alysse_brooks2012/physicscollab/wish/215016135 -Known as shear waves
-Arrive at seismic stations second
-Are Transverse vibrate perpendicular to direction of travel
-Are 1.7 times faster than primary waves
-Don't travel through liquids
( molten rock, the earths core and water)]]> 2017-12-11 14:15:35 UTC https://padlet.com/alysse_brooks2012/physicscollab/wish/215016135 Triangulation hazelcrisp https://padlet.com/alysse_brooks2012/physicscollab/wish/215018152 Triangulation is used to determine the location of the earthquake.
Use seismometer, timer and graph

The location is determined by how long the earthquake waves reach all three points and the relationship between all of them.]]> 2017-12-11 14:18:51 UTC https://padlet.com/alysse_brooks2012/physicscollab/wish/215018152 Ebony_Beckford https://padlet.com/alysse_brooks2012/physicscollab/wish/215024516 2017-12-11 14:29:36 UTC https://padlet.com/alysse_brooks2012/physicscollab/wish/215024516 hazelcrisp https://padlet.com/alysse_brooks2012/physicscollab/wish/215037180 2017-12-11 14:51:24 UTC https://padlet.com/alysse_brooks2012/physicscollab/wish/215037180 hazelcrisp https://padlet.com/alysse_brooks2012/physicscollab/wish/215037809 2017-12-11 14:52:22 UTC https://padlet.com/alysse_brooks2012/physicscollab/wish/215037809 Earthquake animation Ebony_Beckford https://padlet.com/alysse_brooks2012/physicscollab/wish/215040811 http://ds.iris.edu/seismon/swaves/]]> 2017-12-11 14:56:57 UTC https://padlet.com/alysse_brooks2012/physicscollab/wish/215040811 hazelcrisp https://padlet.com/alysse_brooks2012/physicscollab/wish/215041339 Outside of earthquakes Virtual Collaboration can be used in Physics and other sciences to communicate and share data.
