Seismic waves do not travel along the Earth’s surface. The statement is false.

<h3>what are seismic waves?</h3>

The seismic waves can be defined as the waves full of energy that travel through the Earth's layer, these waves are the result of earthquake.

They can further be divided into two types body wave and surface waves. The body waves travel in the interior of the Earth and the surface waves travel at the surface of the Earth.

The seismic waves can have an amplitude of few centimeters in large earthquake. They travel slower as compared to the body waves.

Hence Seismic waves do not travel along the Earth’s surface. The statement is false.

What is the weight in Newtons of a ball with a mass of 7.77 kg?
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

76.1N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the ball  = 7.77kg

Unknow:

Weight of balloon  = ?

Solution:

Weight is the vertical force applied on a body.

  Weight = mass x acceleration due gravity

So;

  Weight  = mass x acceleration due to gravity

So;

 Weight  = 7.77 x 9.8  = 76.1N

What is the difference between an elastic and inelastic collision
barxatty [35]

Answer:

In an elastic collision, the total kinetic energy is conserved, while in an inelastic collision, it is not

Explanation:

Let's define the two types of collision:

- Elastic collision: an elastic collision is a collision in which:

1) the total momentum of the system is conserved

2) the total kinetic energy of the system is conserved

Typically, elastic collisions occur when there are no frictional forces acting on the objects in the system, so that no kinetic energy is lost into thermal energy. An example of elastic collision is the collision between biliard balls.

- Inelastic collision: an inelastic collision is a collision in which:

1 ) the total momentum of the system is conserved

2) the total kinetic energy of the system is NOT conserved

In an elastic collision, part of the total kinetic energy is lost (=converted into thermal energy) due to the presence of frictional forces. An example of inelastic collision is the accident between two cars, in which part of the energy is converted into heat.

We drive at a speed of 20 km/h for 3 hours. Then we drive 4 hours at 30 km/h. Calculate our average speed.
Afina-wow [57]

First speed = 20km/h

Time = 3 hours

Distance = 3×20

<h3> = <u>60 km</u></h3>

Second speed = 30km/h

Time = 4 hours

Distance = 4×30

<h3> = <u>120 km</u></h3>

Total distance = 60+120 = <u>180km</u>

Total time = 3+4 =<u> 7 hours</u>

Average speed = 180/7

<h3> = <u>25.71</u><u> </u><u>km</u><u>/</u><u>h</u></h3>

Hope this will help...
