Plot the travel time graph and use it to determine
i) Velocity of upper layer
ii) Up dip and down dip apparent velocities for the second layer
iii) The direction in which the layer is dipping, showing clearly how you arrived
at the answer.
iv) The dip angle
v) Vertical depths from the shots to the refractor
