The separation in time between the arrival of primary and secondary wave is called LAG TIME.
The time difference between the arrival of primary wave and secondary wave in a seismogram is called lag time. The primary wave always travels faster than the secondary wave, thus the difference between the two can be obtained by estimating the difference between the arrival time of the two waves/.

We are given an object that is speeding up on a level ground.

Let's remember that the gravitational energy depends on the change in height, therefore, if the object is not changing its height it means that the gravitational energy remains constant.

The kinetic energy depends on the velocity. If the velocity is increasing this means that the kinetic energy is also increasing.

Now, every change in velocity requires acceleration and acceleration requires a force. The force and the distance that the object moves are equivalent to the work that is transferred to the object and therefore, the change in kinetic energy. This means that the total energy of the system increases as work is transferred to the mass.

We have that the total energy of the system increases in the form of kinetic energy and that the gravitational potential energy remains constant. Therefore, the diagrams should look like pie charts that grow but the area of the segment of the potential energy stays the same. It should look similar to the following.

The cartesian coordinates of a point in the xy plane are x = −6.46 m, y = −3.78 m. Find the distance r from the point to the ori
11111nata11111 [884]

Explanation:

Use Pythagorean theorem:

r² = x² + y²

r² = (-6.46 m)² + (-3.78 m)²

r = 7.48 m
