<span>Earthquakes often cause dramatic changes at Earth's surface. In addition to the ground movements, other surface effects include changes in the flow of groundwater, landslides, and mudflows. Earthquakes can do significant damage to buildings, bridges, pipelines, railways, embankments, dams, and other <span>structures</span></span>
To solve the problem it is necessary to use the concepts related to the calculation of periods by means of a spring constant.
We know that by Hooke's law
Where,
k = Spring constant
x = Displacement
Re-arrange to find k,
Perioricity in an elastic body is defined by
Where,
m = Mass
k = Spring constant
Therefore the period of the oscillations is 0.685s
Answer:
The metal will melt but their will be no change in temperature.
Explanation:
The metal is at its melting temperature which means it is still in solid phase but have to cross the enthalpy of its condensation at this same temperature to convert into liquid phase.
<u>On supplying heat, the metal's temperature will not change as the heat will be required as enthalpy of condensation to melt the solid to liquid at the melting temperature.</u>
<span>Final Velocity = Vf = 0 m/s --------------> (Vf = 0 because ball's speed at its max height is 0)
Initial Velocity = Vi = ?
Total time (upward & downward) = 8.0 seconds
* Time upward = 4 seconds & ................( As time for ball upward & downward is equal )
* Time downward = 4 seconds..
Gravitational Acceleration = g = -9.8 m/s²
Use Equation;
Vf = Vi - gt
0 = Vi - 9.8 * 4
0 = Vi - 39.2
39.2 = Vi
=> Vi = Initial Velocity = 39.2 m/s</span>
