Answer:

B) an up-and-down motion on the surface of the earth

Explanation:

The S waves are seismic waves that are produced when an earthquake happens, and they can only travel through solid mediums, this means that they create the up and down motion on the surface of the earth, the waves that create the back and forth motion on the surface are the P waves. The image can help you better understand it.

Answer:

Explanation:

Heat flows from hot to cold to lower the temperature of hot areas and increase temperature of cold areas. The end result is that the 2 areas have the same temperature, thus increasing entropy.

A flywheel is a solid disk that rotates about an axis that is perpendicular to the disk at its center. Rotating flywheels provid

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

$8.37*10^5$ rpm

Explanation:

Given that rotational kinetic energy = $4.66*10^9J$

Mass of the fly wheel (m) = 19.7 kg

Radius of the fly wheel (r) = 0.351 m

Moment of inertia (I) = $\frac{1}{2} mr ^2$

Rotational K.E is illustrated as $(K.E)_{rt} = \frac{1}{2} I \omega^2$

$\omega = \sqrt{\frac{2(K.E)_{rt}}{I} }$

$\omega = \sqrt{\frac{2(KE)_{rt}}{1/2 mr^2} }$

$\omega = \sqrt{\frac{4(K.E)_{rt}}{mr^2} }$

$\omega = \sqrt{\frac{4*4.66*10^9J}{19.7kg*(0.351)^2} }$

$\omega = 87636.04$

$\omega = 8.76*10^4 rad/s$

Since 1 rpm = $\frac{2 \pi}{60} rad/s$

$\omega = 8.76*10^4(\frac{60}{2 \pi})$

$\omega = 836518.38$

$\omega = 8.37 *10^5 rpm$

Why are many mitochondria needed in cells that move, like muscle cells?

Deffense [45]

Muscle cells have to use a lot of energy and the Mitochondria is known as the "power house" of the cell... I would say the number of mitochondria needed is increased because more power and energy is being used in that cell than a normal one (idk if this helps or if that's the answer you were looking for)
