It take approximately 9 minutes for an S wave to travel that same distance that P wave travel in 5 minutes.

<h3>What is P wave?</h3>

P waves, are the first waves to arrive at a seismograph.

<h3>What is S wave?</h3>

An S wave, or shear wave, is a seismic body wave that shakes the ground back and forth perpendicular to the direction the wave is moving.

S-wave is about 1.73 times slower than the P-wave.

Answer:

The reaction only takes place if the reactants are in contact, then the surface exposed is very important because as the exposed surface of the reactants increases, the reaction velocity also increases. If the lumps are not broken up, a big amount of baking soda would be only available to react after the surrounding soda has already reacted.

A radio station transmits waves at a frequency of 120MHz an a speed of 300 million m/s. Calculate the wavelength.
Archy [21]
Wavelength = (speed)/(frequency) = 300,000,000/120,000,000 = 2.5 meters

Hay represents two-dimensional motion
GREYUIT [131]

If a body is moving from left to right or right to left it is linear motion in x- direction. It is also called one dimensional motion.

If a body is moving up to down or down to up it is linear motion in y- direction. It is also called one dimensional motion.

But if a body is moving forward as well as downward it travels in X direction and in y direction at the same time. Such a motion is called two dimensional motion.

E.g motion of a ball.

Attachment shows path of two dimensional motion of a ball.

Which piece of evidence would prove that a reaction is exothermic?
Varvara68 [4.7K]
The reactants have more energy than the products. If a reaction is EXOthermic, it loses energy during the reaction, so the output (products) will have less energy than the input (reactants).
