As the speed is a scalar quantity as it has the only magnitude in it. Therefore, the average speed is also stated as a scalar quantity.

Hence, the correct answer is (B)

The velocity of the transverse waves produced by an earthquake is 8.9 km/s, and that of the longitudinal waves is 5.1 km/s. A se
Brrunno [24]

Answer: The distance is 723.4km

Explanation:

The velocity of the transverse waves is 8.9km/s

The velocity of the longitudinal wave is 5.1 km/s

The transverse one reaches 68 seconds before the longitudinal.

if the distance is X, we know that:

X/(9.8km/s) = T1

X/(5.1km/s) = T2

T2 = T1 + 68s

Where T1 and T2 are the time that each wave needs to reach the sesmograph.

We replace the third equation into the second and get:

X/(9.8km/s) = T1

X/(5.1km/s) = T1 + 68s

Now, we can replace T1 from the first equation into the second one:

X/(5.1km/s) = X/(9.8km/s) + 68s

Now we can solve it for X and find the distance.

X/(5.1km/s) - X/(9.8km/s) = 68s

X(1/(5.1km/s) - 1/(9.8km/s)) = X*0.094s/km= 68s

X = 68s/0.094s/km = 723.4 km

Why a body in uniform velocity is zero acceleration ?​

Uniform velocity means no Net force and therefore no acceleration. Acceleration only happens when the velocity changes.

posledela

Answer:

A glacial lake outburst flood is a type of outburst flood caused by the failure of a dam containing a glacial lake. An event similar to a GLOF, where a body of water contained by a glacier melts or overflows the glacier, is called a jökulhlaup. The dam can consist of glacier ice or a terminal moraine.
