Compare and contrast an earthquake and a tsunami.

Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

An earthquake is a trembling movement of the earth's crust. These tremors are generally caused by shifts of the plates that make up the earth's surface. ... A tsunami (pronounced soo-NAHM-ee) is a series of huge waves that occur as the result of a violent underwater disturbance, such as an earthquake or volcanic eruption.

Exactly one turn of a flexible rope with mass m is wrapped around a uniform cylinder with mass M and radius R.

Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

$\omega=\sqrt{\omega_0^2(\frac{M+m}{M})}$

Explanation:

The rotational kinetic energy when the cylinder is with the rope is:

$E_k=\frac{1}{2}I_c\omega_0^2+\frac{1}{2}I_r\omega_0^2$

where we used the fact that both rope and cylinder hast the same w. This E_k must conserve, that is, E_k must equal E_k when the rope leaves the cylinder. Hence, the final w is given by:

$E_{k1}=E_{k2}\\\\\frac{1}{2}I_c\omega_0^2+\frac{1}{2}I_r\omega_0^{2}=\frac{1}{2}I_c\omega^2\\\\\omega=\sqrt{\omega_0^2(\frac{I_c+I_r}{I_c})}$ (1)

For Ic and Ir we can assume that the rope is a ring of the same radius of the cylinder. Then, we have:

$I_c=\frac{1}{2}MR^2\\\\I_r=mR^2$

Finally, by replacing in (1):

$\omega=\sqrt{\omega_0^2(\frac{M+m}{M})}$

hope this helps!!

ListenA bicycle and its rider have a combined mass of 80. kilograms and a speed of 6.0 meters per second. What is the magnitude

Setler [38]

Answer:

a) $1.2\times 10^2\ N$

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

a = Acceleration

$v=u+at\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{v-u}{t}\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{0-6}{4}\\\Rightarrow a=-1.5\ m/s^2$

The acceleration of the bicycle and rider is -1.5 m/s²

Force

$F=ma\\\Rightarrow F=80\times -1.5\\\Rightarrow F=-120\ N=-1.2\times 10^2\ N$

The magnitude of the average force needed to bring the bicycle and its rider to a stop is $1.2\times 10^2\ N$

In which situation is the gravitational force between two objects hard to detect? (Options)

svlad2 [7]

A - the objects are too small

GRAVITATIONAL FORCE IS EXPERIENCED BY ALL OBJECTS IN THE UNIVERSE ALL THE TIME. BUT THE ORDINARY OBJECTS YOU SEE EVERY DAY HAVE MASSES SO SMALL THAT THEIR ATTRACTION TOWARD EACH OTHER IS HARD TO DETECT. -https://www.ftsd.org/cms/lib6/MT01001165/Centricity/ModuleInstance/630/CHAPTER_2_NOTES_FOR_EIGHTH_GRADE_PHYSICAL_SCIENCE.pdf
