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/.

An 8.00 kg mass moving east at 15.4 m/s on a frictionless horizontal surface collides with a 10.0 kg object that is initially at
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

9.3m/s

Explanation:

Based on the law of conservation of momentum

Sum of momentum before collision = sum of momentum after collision

m1u1 +m2u2 = m1v1+m2v2

m1 = 8kg

u1 = 15.4m/s

m2 = 10kg

u2 = 0m/s(at rest)

v1 = 3.9m/s

Required

v2.

Substitute

8(15.4)+10(0) = 8(3.9)+10v2

123.2=31.2+10v2

123.2-31.2 = 10v2

92 = 10v2

v2 = 92/10

v2 = 9.2m/s

Hence the velocity of the 10.0 kg object after the collision is 9.2m/s

In the national grid,what does the step up transformer do?
amm1812
In the National Grid, the Step Up Transformer increases the amount of voltage that is passing through the grid at any one time. These are used at power stations, as without them, there would not be enough power to transport the electricity around the national grid.
Hope this helps :)
