Exercise 1.1.5

Question

Figure 1 was recorded by an instrument operated by the California Department of Mines and Geology at the University Hospital of the University of Southern California in Los Angeles. Use it to estimate the range of the vertical ground acceleration function at USC during the Northridge earthquake.

The lowest value seems to be around $f(t)=-90$ for $t \approx 12.5$. The highest point seems to be around $f(t)=120$ for $t \approx 17.5$. Thus, the range of the vertical ground acceleration function is approximately $[-90, \ 120].$
