a. The speed of the tsunami at ocean depth of 8000 m is 1,019.66 km/h.

b. The speed of the tsunami at ocean depth of 3500 m is 660.75 km/h.

c. The speed of the tsunami at ocean depth of 70 m is 89.66 km/h.

d. The speed of the tsunami at ocean depth of 5 m is 30.625 km/h.

<h3>Speed of the tsunami at the given depths</h3>

The speed of the tsunami is calculated from method of extrapolation or interpolation as shown below;

<h3>Speed at 8000 meters</h3>

8000 m -------- ?

7000 m -------- 943 km/h

4000 m -------- 713 km/h

(8000 - 7000)/(7000 - 4000) = (? - 943)/(943 - 713)

0.3333 =  (? - 943)/230

230(0.3333) = ? - 943

76.66 = ? - 943

? = 1,019.66 km/h

<h3>Speed at 3500 m</h3>

4000 m ---------- 713 km/h

3500 m ---------- ?

2000 m ----------- 504 km/h

(4000 - 3500)/(4000 - 2000) = (713 - ?) / (713 - 504)

0.25 =  (713 - ?) /209

0.25(209) = 713 - ?

52.25 = 713 - ?

? = 660.75 km/h

<h3>Speed at 70 m</h3>

200 m ------ 159 km/h

70 m --------- ?

50 m ------- 79 km/h

(200 - 70)/(200 - 50) = (159 - ?)/(159 - 79)

0.8667 = 159 - ? / 80

80(0.8667) = 159 - ?

69.336 = 159 - ?

? = 89.66 km/h

<h3>Speed at 5 meters</h3>

50 m ------- 79 km/h

10 m --------- 36 km/h

5 m ---------- ?

(50 - 5)/(50 - 10) = (79 - ?)/(79 - 36)

1.125 = 79 - ?/43

43(1.125) = 79 - ?

48.375 = 79 - ?

? = 30.625 km/h

In a laboratory experiment, an ultrasound detector located at D is used to measure the distances of two moving objects, P and Q.
Tatiana [17]
D^2 = p^2 + q^2  - 2 pq cos D

d^2 = (4.24)^2 + (4.24)^2  - 2. (4.24) (4.24) cos 68

d^2 = 2 (4.24)^2 -  2. (4.24) (4.24) cos 68

d = 4.74

so the answer will be letter. C

A cyclist rides in a circle with speed 5 m/s. What is his centripetal
Reptile [31]

Answer: 1.32 m/s^2

Explanation:

Centripetal acceleration is given by the formula

a = ( v^2 ) / r

where a is centripetal acceleration, v is velocity and r is radius.

We know that,

v = 5 m/s

r = 19m

Now,

a = ( v^2 ) / r

a = ( 5^2 ) / 19

a = 25 / 19

a = 1.32 m/s^2

Suppose an empty grocery cart rolls downhill in a parking lot. The cart has a maximum speed of 1.3 m/s when it hits the side of
Ket [755]

The cart comes to rest from 1.3 m/s in a matter of 0.30 s, so it undergoes an acceleration <em>a</em> of

<em>a</em> = (0 - 1.3 m/s) / (0.30 s)

<em>a</em> ≈ -4.33 m/s²

This acceleration is applied by a force of -65 N, i.e. a force of 65 N that opposes the cart's motion downhill. So the cart has a mass <em>m</em> such that

-65 N = <em>m</em> (-4.33 m/s²)

<em>m</em> = 15 kg

Anastaziya [24]
<span>Radio waves are the type of wave that most likely transmit cell phones messages. Radio waves can be used to transmit data and information at various frequencies. Gamma rays are high frequency and are dangerous to our health. Ultraviolet rays come from the sun. Infrared waves are ones we experience every day, even though it is invisible to the naked eye. This is the heat we feel from the sun. </span>
