Where does the engery of an earthquake originate

1 answer:

6 0

From convection of magma under the earths crust makes the plates slowly move and as they move over time they build up potential energy from the different plates grinding against each other and after so long the plates will lose there grip on each other and release the potential energy they've been building up for so long as kinetic energy causing what you know as an earthquake hope this helps please give brainliest

A cat dozes on a stationary merry-go-round, at a radius of 5.7 m from the center of the ride. Then the operator turns on the rid

tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

0.76

Explanation:

we are given:

radius (r) =5.7 m

speed (s) = 1 revolution in 5.5 seconds

acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s^{2}

coefficient of friction (Uk) = ?

we can get the minimum coefficient of friction from the equation below

centrifugal force = frictional force

m x r x ω^{2} = Uk x m x g

r x ω^{2} = Uk x g

Uk = $\frac{ r x ω^{2} }{g}$

where ω (angular velocity) = $\frac{2π}{time}$

= $\frac{2π }{5.5}$ = 1.14

Uk = $\frac{ 5.7 x 1.14^{2} }{9.8}$ = 0.76

2. A 20 cm object is placed 10cm in front of a convex lens of focal length 5cm. Calculate

adoni [48]

Answer:

 » Image distance :

${ \tt{ \frac{1}{v} + \frac{1}{u} = \frac{1}{f} }} \\$

v is image distance
u is object distance, u is 10 cm
f is focal length, f is 5 cm

${ \tt{ \frac{1}{v} + \frac{1}{10} = \frac{1}{5} }} \\ \\ { \tt{ \frac{1}{v} = \frac{1}{10} }} \\ \\ { \tt{v = 10}} \\ \\ { \underline{ \underline{ \pmb{ \red{ \: image \: distance \: is \: 10 \: cm \: \: }}}}}$

 » Magnification :

• Let's derive this formula from the lens formula:

${ \tt{ \frac{1}{v} + \frac{1}{u} = \frac{1}{f} }} \\$

» Multiply throughout by fv

${ \tt{fv( \frac{1}{v} + \frac{1}{u} ) = fv( \frac{1}{f} )}} \\ \\ { \tt{ \frac{fv}{v} + \frac{fv}{u} = \frac{fv}{f} }} \\ \\ { \tt{f + f( \frac{v}{u} ) = v}}$

• But we know that, v/u is M

${ \tt{f + fM = v}} \\ { \tt{f(1 +M) = v }} \\ { \tt{1 +M = \frac{v}{f} }} \\ \\ { \boxed{ \mathfrak{formular : } \: { \tt{ M = \frac{v}{f} - 1 }}}}$

v is image distance, v is 10 cm
f is focal length, f is 5 cm
M is magnification.

${ \tt{M = \frac{10}{5} - 1 }} \\ \\ { \tt{M = 5 - 1}} \\ \\ { \underline{ \underline{ \pmb{ \red{ \: magnification \: is \: 4}}}}}$

 » Nature of Image :

Image is magnified
Image is erect or upright
Image is inverted
Image distance is identical to object distance.

What must be the length of a simple pendulum if its oscillation frequency is to be equal to that of an air-track glider of mass

Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

the length of the simple pendulum is 0.25 m.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the air-track glider, m = 0.25 kg

spring constant, k = 9.75 N/m

let the length of the simple pendulum = L

let the frequency of the air-track glider which is equal to frequency of simple pendulum = F

The oscillation frequency of air-track glider is calculated as;

$F = \frac{1}{2\pi } \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} } \\\\F = \frac{1}{2\pi } \sqrt{\frac{9.75}{0.25} } \\\\F = 0.994 \ Hz$

The frequency of the simple pendulum is given as;

$F = \frac{1}{2\pi} \sqrt{\frac{g}{l} } \\\\2\pi(F) = \sqrt{\frac{g}{l} } \\\\2\pi (0.994) = \sqrt{\frac{9.8}{l} } \\\\6.2455 = \sqrt{\frac{9.8}{l} } \\\\(6.2455)2 = \frac{9.8}{l} \\\\39.006 = \frac{9.8}{l} \\\\l = \frac{9.8}{39.006} \\\\l = 0.25 \ m$

Thus, the length of the simple pendulum is 0.25 m.
