I am pretty sure that the only statement which  is true for particles of the medium of an earthquake P-wave is being shown in the option : b)vibrate parallel to the wave, forming compressions and rarefactions. As you know, <span> it can be formed in two ways : from alternating </span>compressions<span> and </span>rarefactions<span> or </span><span>primary wave. I bet you will agree with me.</span>

The statement is true for particles of the medium of an earthquake P-wave is :
They vibrate in a direction parallel to that of the wave, forming compression and rarefaction
P-waves can be produced by earthquakes and recorded by seismographs.

a plane is flying due east in still air at 395 km/h. suddenly, the plane is hit by wind blowing at 55km/h toward the west. what
Sphinxa [80]
Let's be clear:  The plane's "395 km/hr" is speed relative to the
air, and the wind's "55 km/hr" is speed relative to the ground.

Before the wind hits, the plane moves east at 395 km/hr relative
to both the air AND the ground.

After the wind hits, the plane still maintains the same air-speed.
That is, its velocity relative to the air is still 395 km/hr east.
But the wind vector is added to the air-speed vector, and the
plane's velocity <span>relative to the ground drops to 340 km/hr east</span>.

what is the net force of a 6 kg object that goes from a velocity of 0.5 m/s to a velocity of 3 m/s over the course of 1.5 second
baherus [9]

Answer:

∑F = 10.2 N

Explanation:

We have:

Initial velocity: 0.5 m/s

Final velocity: 3 m/s

Time: 1.5 s

We have all of the components needed to calculate acceleration. Let's do that, shall we?

a = vf-vo/t

a = 2.5/1.5

a = 1.7 m/s^{2}

Now, look at the Net Force equation:

∑F = ma

Plug in the variables, to get:

∑F = (6)(1.7)

∑F = 10.2 N (You can round this according to significant digits)
