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 ' .

What must be true about two objects if heat is flowing between them?
netineya [11]

Answer:

The objects must be different temperatures.

Explanation:

For heat to flow between two objects, heat must be flowing between them. The thermal gradient allows for the flow of heat. Heat is a form of energy that is dissipated from one place to another based on temperature difference.

Temperature is the degree of hotness or coldness of body. It is power by heat energy between two bodies.

Heat generally flows from a body at high temperature to one at low temperature. When thermal equilibrium is established and both bodies have the same temperature, heat will stop to flow.

A) 1.2-kg ball is hanging from the end of a rope. The rope hangs at an angle 20° from the vertical when a 19 m/s horizontal wind
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

Part a)

F_v = 4.28 N

Part B)

L = 1.02 m

Part C)

v = 1.25 m/s

Explanation:

Part A)

As we know that ball is hanging from the top and its angle with the vertical is 20 degree

so we will have

Tcos\theta = mg

T sin\theta = F_v

\frac{F_v}{mg} = tan\theta

F_v = mg tan\theta

F_v = 1.2\times 9.81 (tan20)

F_v = 4.28 N

Part B)

Here we can use energy theorem to find the distance that it will move

-\mu mg cos\theta L + mg sin\theta L = -\frac{1}{2}mv^2

(-(0.37)m(9.81) cos15 + m(9.81) sin15)L = - \frac{1}{2}m(1.4)^2

(-3.5 + 2.54)L = - 0.98

L = 1.02 m

Part C)

At terminal speed condition we know that

F_v = mg

bv^2 = mg

2.5 v^2 = 3.9

v = 1.25 m/s

A barrel of oil is exactly 42 gal. how many liters of oil are in a barrel
Natali [406]
The conversion from gallons to liters is 1 = 3.785.

Keeping this in mind...

42 x 3.785 = 158.97 liters.

If rounding, there are about 159 liters of oil in a barrel.

Which of the following helps to explain how hydraulic lifts work?
Gnesinka [82]

Answer : C. Pascal's principle.

Explaination : Pascal's principle (well-known as Pascal's law) states that if a closed container contains a fluid at rest, then a small change in pressure at one side of the fluid is transmitted to each and every part of the fluid and also to the walls of the container without any loss. In a hydraulic lift, we need the same mechanism to work and so we take the help of Pascal's principle.


Hence, the correct option is C. Pascal's principle.
