Answer:

2nd option

Explanation:

they are caused by the underwater earthquakes

person above said They are caused by earthquakes, since the force of the earth makes movement in the tectonic plates under the sea thus creating tsunamis. in spanish

Answer:son causados por terremotos, ya que la fuerza de la tierra hace movimiento en las placas tectonicas debajo del mar creando asi los tsunamis.

What is the measure of the change in velocity during the period of time?

Rashid [163]

That measure is known as "acceleration"
a = ΔV / t

A helicopter pulls upward by means of a rope on a 250 kg crate to lift it UNIFORMLY. What is the net force on the crate?

Cloud [144]

Answer:

The net force = 0

Explanation:

The given information includes;

The mass of the crate = 250 kg

The way the helicopter lifts the crate = Uniformly (constant rate (speed), no acceleration)

In order to pull the crate upwards, the helicopter has to provide a force equivalent to the weight of the crate keeping the helicopter on the ground.

The weight of the crate = The mass of the crate × The acceleration due gravity acting on the crate

The weight of the crate, $F_w$ ↓ = 250 kg × 9.81 m/s² = 2,452.5 N

The force the helicopter should provide to just lift the crate, $F_{(helicopter)}$ ↑ = The weight of the crate = 2,452.5 N

The net force, $F_{(net)}$ = $F_{(helicopter)}$ ↑ - $F_w$ ↓ = 2,452.5 N - 2,452.5 N = 0

The net force = 0.

A less massive moving object has an elastic collision with a more massive object that is not moving. Compare the initial velocit

stepladder [879]

Assume that the small-massed particle is $m$ and the heavier mass particle is $M$ .

Now, by momentum conservation and energy conservation:

$mv = mv_{m} + Mv_{M}$

$mv^{2} = mv^{2}_{m} + Mv^{2}_{M}$

Now, there are 2 solutions but, one of them is useless to this question's main point so I excluded that point. Ask me in the comments if you want the excluded solution too.

$v_{m} = v\frac{m - M}{m + M}\\\\\\v_{M} = v\frac{m + M}{m + M}\\$

So now, we see that $v_{m} < 0$ and $v_{M} > 0$ . So therefore, the smaller mass recoils out.

Hope this helps you!

Bye!
