Sunspots occur at two times in the solar cycle corresponding to the "NS" orientation of magnetic poles for a 1/2 cycle and an "SN" orientation for the other half.

Volcanologists and seismologist are specialzed in what
antiseptic1488 [7]

The answer is:

They are specialized in geology and geophysics

1) Volcanologists are scientific researchers who study the properties of volcanoes and develop the science of predicting volcanic eruptions accurately.

- Volcanoes are the results of fissures in the earth's crust, from which magma, gases, rocks, and ashes can erupt.  


-Volcanic eruptions and their impact on the atmosphere are investigated by specialist geologists known as volcanologists.


A) Volcanologists are scientists who use a variety of sophisticated equipment to measure and analyze volcanic activity, lava, rock, ashes and gases as well as earthquakes caused by eruptions.


B) Also, they measure the magnitude and intensity of explosions, placing them on a scale from 1 to 8 [volcanic explosivity index].  


C)Volcanologists monitor both active and dormant volcanoes to try to predict eruptions and minimize adverse effects on people and their environment.


D)Also, they spend a lot of time collecting and analyzing samples of debris, rocks and other products from extinct volcanoes to gain a better understanding of the processes behind the volcanic activity and the impact former eruptions had in shaping the climate.


2) Seismologists are Earth scientists, specialized in geophysics, who study the genesis and the propagation of seismic waves in geological materials.


-Their research aims at interpreting the geological composition and structures of the Earth. In the case of earthquakes, seismologists evaluate the potential dangers and seek to minimize their impact through the improvement of construction standards.

An object has the acceleration graph shown in (Figure 1). Its velocity at t=0s is vx=2.0m/s. Draw the object's velocity graph fo
timama [110]

Answer:

Explanation:

We may notice that change in velocity can be obtained by calculating areas between acceleration lines and horizontal axis ("Time"). Mathematically, we know that:

v_{b}-v_{a} = \int\limits^{t_{b}}_{t_{a}} {a(t)} \, dt

v_{b} = v_{a}+ \int\limits^{t_{b}}_{t_{a}} {a(t)} \, dt

Where:

v_{a}, v_{b} - Initial and final velocities, measured in meters per second.

t_{a}, t_{b} - Initial and final times, measured in seconds.

a(t) - Acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

Acceleration is the slope of velocity, as we know that each line is an horizontal one, then, velocity curves are lines with slopes different of zero. There are three region where velocities should be found:

Region I (t = 0 s to t = 4 s)

v_{4} = 2\,\frac{m}{s}  +\int\limits^{4\,s}_{0\,s} {\left(-2\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)} \, dt

v_{4} = 2\,\frac{m}{s}+\left(-2\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right) \cdot (4\,s-0\,s)

v_{4} = -6\,\frac{m}{s}

Region II (t = 4 s to t = 6 s)

v_{6} = -6\,\frac{m}{s}  +\int\limits^{6\,s}_{4\,s} {\left(1\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)} \, dt

v_{6} = -6\,\frac{m}{s}+\left(1\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right) \cdot (6\,s-4\,s)

v_{6} = -4\,\frac{m}{s}

Region III (t = 6 s to t = 10 s)

v_{10} = -4\,\frac{m}{s}  +\int\limits^{10\,s}_{6\,s} {\left(2\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)} \, dt

v_{10} = -4\,\frac{m}{s}+\left(2\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right) \cdot (10\,s-6\,s)

v_{10} = 4\,\frac{m}{s}

Finally, we draw the object's velocity graph as follows. Graphic is attached below.

melisa1 [442]

Answer:

Refraction

Explanation:

When light passes from a rarer medium into a denser medium, it bends in the medium away from the normal. This creates the phenomenon of "apparent depth" as given in the question.
