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.

Eva8 [605]

When she starts out, he is (40x2.5)= 100 miles ahead of her.

She gains (65-40)= 25 miles on him every hour.

It takes her (100/25)= 4 hours to catch up to him.

Energy cannot be created nor destroyed. A. Ella said "a lot of energy in the hot water has disappeared." Explain why her stateme
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

The principle of conservation of energy states that; energy can neither be created nor destroyed but is converted from one form to another.

In view of this principle, Ella can not be correct when she says that a lot of energy has disappeared. The use of the term "disappeared" connotes the idea that the energy no longer exists which does not happen.

Hence, energy can not "disappear" from hot water rather the energy in the water may be transferred to the surroundings.

Considerando que los coeficientes de dilatación de los siguientes metales son: hierro 11.7 x 10-6; plomo 27.3 x 10-6; cobre 16.7
Rasek [7]

Answer:

el plomo será el más largo

Explanation:

Dado que;

longitud inicial (l1) = 4m

Longitud final l2

aumento de temperatura (θ) = 10 ° C

Coeficiente de expansión lineal α

Ahora para el hierro;

α = 11,7 x 10-6

Desde;

l2-l / l1θ = α

l2 = α l1θ + l1

l2 = l1 (αθ + 1)

l2 = 4 ((11,7 x 10-6 * 10) + 1)

l2 = 4.00044 m

Para el plomo

l2 = 4 ((27,3 x 10-6 * 10) + 1)

l2 = 4,00109 m

Para cobre

l2 = 4 ((16,7 x 10-6 * 10) + 1)

l2 = 4.000668 m

Por lo tanto, el plomo será el más largo
