Question

Transcribed Image Text:6.2 The figure below shows the vertical response of geophones located at the same depths in vertical
boreholes spaced 5 m apart. The waves recorded at the geophones resulted from downward
(solid lines) and upward (dashed lines) impacts on a mechanical source at the same depth in a
third borehole that was colinear with the other two boreholes. Determine the average SV-wave
velocity of the soil between the geophones.
