The appropriate response is a Surface wave. It is a seismic wave that goes over the surface of the Earth rather than through it. Surface waves as a rule have bigger amplitudes and longer wavelengths than body waves, and they travel more gradually than body waves do. Adore waves and Rayleigh waves are sorts of surface waves.

a fan is rotating clockwise and its acceleration has a positive sign. is the angular velocity of the fan speeding up, slowing do

balu736 [363]

Answer:

The angular velocity is slowing down.

Explanation:

By convention, if a rigid body is rotating clockwise, the angular velocity is negative.
If the angular acceleration has a positive sign, since the angular acceleration and the angular velocity have opposite signs, this means that the angular velocity is slowing down.

An inventor develops a stationary cycling device by which an individual, while pedaling, can convert all of the energy expended

mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

$Q=94185\ J$

Explanation:

Given:

mass of water, $m=0.3\ kg$

initial temperature of water, $T_i=20^{\circ}C$

final temperature of water, $T_f=95^{\circ}C$

specific heat of water, $c=4186\ J.kg^{-1}.K^{-1}$

<u>Now the amount of heat energy required:</u>

$Q=m.c.\Delta T$

$Q=0.3\times 4186\times (95-20)$

$Q=94185\ J$

Since all of the mechanical energy is being converted into heat, therefore the same amount of mechanical energy is required.

N capacitors are connected in parallel to form a "capacitor circuit". The capacitance of first capacitor is C, second one is C/2

liberstina [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

The equivalent capacitance of a parallel combination of capacitors is the sum of their capacitance.

So, if the capacitance of each capacitor is half the previous one, we have a geometric series with first term = C and rate = 0.5.

Using the formula for the sum of the infinite terms of a geometric series, we have:

Sum = First term / (1 - rate)

Sum = C / (1 - 0.5)

Sum = C / 0.5 = 2C

So the equivalent capacitance of this parallel connection is 2C.

Interactive Solution 11.13 presents a model for solving this problem. A solid concrete block weighs 100 N and is resting on the

mash [69]

Answer:

The value is $} N = 66 \ blocks$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The weight of the block is $W_b = 100 \ N$

The dimension of the block is $d = 0.400 m \ X \ 0.250 \ m \ X \ 0.130 \ m$

Generally two atmosphere is equivalent to

$P_{2atm} = 2 * 1.013 *10^{5} = 202600 \ N/m^2$

Generally 1 atm = $1.013 *10^{5} N/m^2$

The area of the block would be evaluated using width and height because we need for the smaller surface to be in contact with the ground in order to maximize the pressure and minimize number of blocks

$A = 0.250 * 0.130$

=> $A = 0.0325 \ m^2$

Generally the force due to this blocks is mathematically represented as

$F = N * W_b$

Here N is the number of blocks

$} 202600 = \frac{N * 100 }{ 0.0325}$

=> $} N = 66 \ blocks$
