What are the three key points to seismic waves​

Physics
1 answer:
leonid [27]3 years ago
6 0

Earthquakes produce three types of seismic waves: primary waves, secondary waves, and surface waves. Each type moves through materials differently. In addition, the waves can reflect, or bounce, off boundaries between different layers.

three key points:

1. they all change the earth by shifting plates in different ways.

2. these waves lead to our plates form today, which are always changing.

3. even the smallest earthquakes make the slightest changes to our ground. and many happen in just a day! we just never feel it.

What is the repulsive force between two pith balls that are 8.00 cm apart and have equal charges of – 30.0 nC?
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

F=1.26*10^{-3}N

Explanation:

Assuming the pith balls as point charges, we can calculate the repulsive force between them, using Coulomb's law:

F=\frac{kq_1q_2}{d^2}

We observe that the magnitude of the electric force is directly proportional to the product of the magnitude of both signed charges(q_1,q_2) and inversely proportional to the square of the distance(d) that separates them.

Replacing the given values, where k is the Coulomb constant:

F=\frac{8.99*10^{9}\frac{N\cdot m^2}{C^2}(-30*10^{-9}C)(-30*10^{-9}C)}{(8*10^{-2}m)^2}\\F=1.26*10^{-3}N

An 80-cm-long steel string with a linear density of 1.0 g/m is under 200 N tension. It is plucked and vibrates at its fundamenta
icang [17]

Answer:

Wavelength of the sound wave that reaches your ear is 1.15 m

Explanation:

The speed of the wave in string is

v=\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu} }

where T= 200 N is tension in the string , \mu=1.0 g/m is the linear mass density

v=\sqrt{\frac{200}{1\times 10^{-3} }

v=447.2 m/s

Wavelength of the wave in the string is

\lambda =2L=2\times 0.8=1.6 m

The frequency is

f=\frac{v}{\lambda} \\f=\frac{447.2}{1.6}\\f=298.25 Hz

The required wavelength pf the sound wave that reaches the ear is( take velocity of air v=344 m/s)

\lambda=\frac{v_{air}}{f} \\\lambda=\frac{344}{298.25} \\\lambda=1.15 m
