A seismogram shows that P waves travela. at the same speed as surface waves.
b. more slowly than S waves.
c. at the same speed as S waves.
d. faster than S waves.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

A seismogram shows that P waves travel faster than S waves. The answer is letter D. This is because P waves can push and pull the sound waves through a liquid or solid medium. The S wave can only move to the solid medium and solids have more compact molecules than the liquid so it travels slow.

Answer 2
Answer:

A seismogram shows that P waves travel faster than S waves. The answer is letter D. This is because P waves can push and pull the sound waves through a liquid or solid medium. The S wave can only move to the solid medium and solids have more compact molecules than the liquid so it travels slow.

Explanation:

Because P waves are the fastest seismic waves, they will ordinarily be the original 1 that your seismograph records. The following set of seismic waves on your seismogram will be the S waves. These are normally higher than the P waves. Often they are the only waves filmed a long distance from medium-sized earthquakes.

Explanation:

78. The initial velocity of a projectile has a horizontal
component equal to 5 m/s and a vertical component
equal to 6 m/s.
At the highest point of the projectile's flight, what is (a) the horizontal component of its
velocity and
(b) the vertical component of its velocity?
Explain.

Answers

Final answer:

The horizontal component of a projectile's velocity remains constant throughout its flight. Hence, at the highest point, its value is the same as the initial, 5 m/s. The vertical component, on the other hand, becomes zero at the highest point.

Explanation:

For a projectile, the horizontal component of motion and the vertical component of motion are independent. Therefore, the horizontal component of velocity remains constant throughout the flight as long as there is no air resistance. Hence, at the highest point of a projectile's flight, the horizontal velocity (a) remains the same, i.e., 5 m/s.

However, for the vertical component, it is subjected to the acceleration due to gravity. At the highest point, the vertical component of velocity (b) becomes zero, because it has momentarily stopped before changing direction and accelerating downwards.

Answer:Consider again the cannonball launched by a cannon from the top of a very high cliff. Suppose that the cannonball is launched horizontally with no upward angle whatsoever and with an initial speed of 20 m/s. If there were no gravity, the cannonball would continue in motion at 20 m/s in the horizontal direction. Yet in actuality, gravity causes the cannonball to accelerate downwards at a rate of 9.8 m/s/s. This means that the vertical velocity is changing by 9.8 m/s every second. If a vector diagram (showing the velocity of the cannonball at 1-second intervals of time) is used to represent how the x- and y-components of the velocity of the cannonball is changing with time, then x- and y- velocity vectors could be drawn and their magnitudes labeled. The lengths of the vector arrows are representative of the magnitudes of that quantity. Such a diagram is shown below.

What happens to an earthquake's S-waves when they strike the core?A) They bounce off
B) They are absorbed
C) The change into P-waves
D) They change into L-waves

Answers

Answer:

B) They are absorbed

Explanation:

B is correct because S waves can only travel through solid materials.  When they hit liquid materials they are absorbed in and undetectable.

Answer:

B) They are absorbed

Explanation:

When they hit the liquid core, S-waves are no longer able to be detected. While P-waves bounce off the liquid core, S-waves are absorbed at the core.

A 6kg object has 350j of kinetic energy. find the velocity of the object?

Answers


We have no information describing the direction in which
the object is moving, so we're in no position to discuss its
velocity.   ==> We have only speed to work with.

                                      Kinetic energy = (1/2) (mass) (speed²)

                                                   (350 J) = (1/2) (6 kg) (speed²)

Divide each side by  3 kg :    (350J / 3 kg)  =  (speed²)

Take the square root of each side:       Speed  =  10.8 m/s  (rounded)


Units (for the curious/inquisitive):

[Energy] = [work] =        [force] x                [distance]

                             = [mass-distance/time²] x [distance]

                             =  [ kg-meter / sec² ]  x  [ meter ]

                             =  [ kg-meter² / sec² ]  =  Joule

Energy / mass  =  Joule/kg  =  [ meter² / sec² ]  =  (speed²)
