the first s-wave reaches a seismic station 22 minutes after an earthquake occurred. how long did it take the first p-wave to rea

Naddik [55]

The time taken for the first p-wave to reach the same seismic station is approximately 13 minutes.

<h3>Time of travel of the P-wave</h3>

In rock, S waves generally travel about 60% the speed of P waves, and the S wave always arrives after the P wave.

<h3>Relationship between speed and time</h3>

v ∝ 1/t

v₁t₁ = v₂t₂

t₁/t₂ = v₂/v₁

t₁/t₂ = 0.6v₁/v₁

t₁/t₂ = 0.6

t₁ = 0.6t₂

t₁ = 0.6 x 22 mins

t₁ = 13.2 mins

Thus, the time taken for the first p-wave to reach the same seismic station is approximately 13 minutes.

Two charged objects, A and B, are exerting an electric force on each other. What will happen if the charge on A is increased?

ozzi

Answer: The forces acting on both of them will increase in magnitude.

Explanation:

According to Coulomb's law, the electrostatic force between two bodies is proportional to the product of their two charges. If the charge on A is increased this product increases in size (it must have been non-zero to begin with, since there was a force between them at first). Thus, the force between them rises.

Acceleration is defined as the rate of change for which characteristic?

Alenkasestr [34]

1) C. velocity

Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity per unit time. In formulas:

$a=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}$

where

$\Delta v$ is the change in velocity

$\Delta t$ is the time interval

Therefore, the correct answer is C. velocity.

2) A. 9.8m/s/s

Earth's gravity is a force, so it produces an acceleration on every object with mass located on the Earth's surface. This acceleration can be calculated, as it is given by the formula

$g=\frac{GM}{r^2}$

where

$G=6.67\cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1} s^{-2}$ is the gravitational constant

$M=5.98\cdot 10^{24} kg$ is the Earth's mass

$r=6.37\cdot 10^6 m$ is the Earth's radius

By substituting these numbers into the formula, one can find that the acceleration due to Earth's gravity is $g=9.81 m/s^2$ .

At the equator, the radius of the Earth is approximately 6370 km. A plane flies at a very low altitude at a constant speed of v

Cerrena [4.2K]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the kinematic equations of linear motion. From there we will define the distance as the circumference of the earth (approximate as a sphere). With the speed given in the statement we will simply clear the equations below and find the time.

$R= 6370*10^3 m$

$v = 239m/s$

$a = 16.5m/s^2$

The circumference of the earth would be

$\phi = 2\pi R$

Velocity is defined as,

$v = \frac{x}{t}$

$t = \frac{x}{v}$

Here $x = \phi$ , then

$t = \frac{\phi}{v} = \frac{2\pi (6370*10^3)}{239}$

$t = 167463.97s$

Therefore will take 167463.97 s or 1 day 22 hours 31 minutes and 3.97seconds
