Most geologic activity takes place at

Physics

Dmitrij [34]3 years ago
5 0

Most of the geologic activity happens at the boundaries between tectonic plates where two plates meet. This activity occurs as plates interact, such as volcanoes, earthquakes, and mountain building. Geographies that form at a plate boundary are determine by the direction of plate motion and by the type of crust at the boundary. 

Moreover, plate boundaries has three types namely; divergent plate boundaries where the two plates move away from each other, then convergent plate boundaries, here the two plates move towards each other and lastly, transform plate boundaries, in which the two plates slip past each other.

A marble is dropped off the top of a building. Find it's velocity and how far below to its dropping point for the first 10 secon
WINSTONCH [101]

1) velocity: 98 m/s downward

Explanation:

The marble moves by uniformly accelerated motion, with constant acceleration a=g=-9.8 m/s^2 directed towards the ground. Therefore, its velocity at time t is given by:

v(t)=v_0 +at

where

v_0 = 0 is the initial velocity

a=g=-9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration

t is the time

Substituting t = 10 s, we find:

v(10 s)=0+(-9.8 m/s^2)(10 s)=-98 m/s

And the negative sign means the direction of the velocity is downward.


2) Distance covered: 490 m

The distance covered in an uniformly accelerated motion can be found with the formula:

S=\frac{1}{2}at^2

where

a=-9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration

t is the time

Substituting t=10 s, we find

S=\frac{1}{2}at^2=\frac{1}{2}(-9.8 m/s^2)(10 s)^2=-490 m

And the negative sign means the displacement is below the dropping point.

You know that you sound better when you sing in the shower. This has to do with the amplification of frequencies that correspond
Elena L [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

For first overtone

Standing waves will be formed lengthwise and breadth-wise in the enclosures  having dimension of .75m  x 1.5 m

A ) For the formation of lowest two frequencies formed by standing waves along the breadth  , fundamental note and first overtone may be considered.  

For fundamental note ,  

the condition is  

wave length λ = 2L = 2 x 0.75 m  

λ = 1.5 m  

frequency n = v / λ

= 343 / 1.5  

= 229  Hz approx

For first overtone

λ = L = 0.75m

frequency n = v / λ

n = 343 / 0.75  

= 457 Hz approx

B)

For the formation of lowest two frequencies formed by standing waves along the length , fundamental note and first overtone may be considered.  

For fundamental note ,  

the condition is  

wave length λ = 2L = 2 x 1.5 m  

λ = 3 m  

frequency n = v / λ

= 343 / 3  

= 114 Hz approx

frequency n = v / λ

n = 343 / 1.5  

= 229 Hz approx

A ball is thrown downward at 5ms from roof 10m high its velocity when it reaches the ground is?,
lions [1.4K]
<span>A ball is thrown downward at 5ms from roof 10m high its velocity when it reaches the ground is 0 m/s. This is because it already dropped from the ground or x axis. So the velocity already stopped. </span>
