A "seismograph" is a machine designed to detect and record
the tiny motions of the ground caused by earthquakes.

"seism-" . . . . . related to earthquakes

"graph" . . . . . picture or drawing  .

More than one seismograph is a bunch of 'seismographs' ... no apostrophe.

The picture that the seismograph draws is a ' seismogram ' .

Which statement best describes what is happening at
12345 [234]

Answer:

Water is absorbing heat.

Explanation:

Water is able to absorb heat

-<u> without increasing much in temperature</u> - better than many substances.

This is because for water to increase in temperature, water molecules must be made to move faster within the water; this requires breaking hydrogen bonds, and the breaking of hydrogen bonds absorbs heat.

What will happen to the sun when fusion from hydrogen into helium slows down?
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

The Sun is a main-sequence star, and, as such, generates its energy by nuclear fusion of hydrogen nuclei into helium. In its core, the Sun fuses 620 million metric tons of hydrogen and makes 616 million metric tons of helium each second.

PLZ HELP ON #22-26!!!! <br><br>Please explain why and how you got your answer.

22. a - (vf^2 - vi^2)/(2d) 
a = (0 - 23^2)/(170) 
a = -3.1 m/s^2

23. Find the time (t) to reach 33 m/s at 3 m/s^2
33-0/t = 3 
33 = 3t 
t = 11 sec to reach 33 m/s^2
Find the av velocuty: 33+0/2 = 16.5 m/s
Dist = 16.5 * 11 = 181.5 meters to each 33m/s speed. Runway has to be at least this long. 

24. The sprinter starts from rest. The average acceleration is found from: 
(Vf)^2 = (Vi)^2 = 2as ---> a = (Vf)^2 - (Vi)^2/2s = (11.5m/s)^2-0/2(15.0m) = 4.408m/s^2 estimated: 4.41m/s^2
The elapsed time is found by solving
Vf = Vi + at ----> t = vf-vi/a = 11.5m/s-0/4.408m/s^2 = 2.61s

25. Acceleration of car = v-u/t = 0ms^-1-21.0ms^-1/6.00s = -3.50ms^-2
S = v^2 - u^2/2a = (0ms^-1)^2-(21.0ms^-1)^2/2*-3.50ms^-2 = 63.0m 

26. Assuming a constant deceleration of 7.00 m/s^2
final velocity, v = 0m/s 
acceleration, a = -7.00m/s^2
displacement, s - 92m 
Using v^2 = u^2 - 2as 
0^2 - u^2 + 2 (-7.00) (92) 
initial velocity, u = sqrt (1288) = 35.9 m/s 
This is the speed pf the car just bore braking. 

I hope this helps!!

How do you measure the amount of energy something has?
shtirl [24]

Answer:

The official measurement unit for energy is the Joule (J). Among the most common units measuring energy mention should be made of the kilowatt/hour (kWh), used especially for electric energy (in fact it is used to calculate electricity bills).

A loudspeaker having a diaphragm that vibrates at 910 Hz is traveling at 75.0 m/s directly toward a pair of holes in a very larg
Alina [70]

To solve this problem we need to apply doppler equation,

Our values are:

f_0 = 910Hz\\c = 75m\\v=344m/s\\\theta= 12.9\°\\

Doppler equation is given by,

f= \frac{v}{v-c} f_0

Substituting,

f= \frac{344}{344-75}*910

f = 1163Hz

\lambda = \frac{344}{1163}

Wavelenght is equal to,

\lambda = \frac{c}{f}

\lambda = 0.2956

We can now find the distance by,

d= \frac{1}{2}\frac{\lambda}{sin\theta}

d=\frac{1}{2}\frac{0.2956}{sin(12.9)}

d= 0.66m

b) We can find at what angles would sound first cancel through the same equation of wavelenght,

\lambda = \lambda{c}{f} = \frac{344}{1163}

d* sin\theta = \frac{1}{2}*\lambda

\theta = arcsin( 0.5*(344/1163)/0.66)=12.94\°
