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.

Water waves, earthquake waves, sound waves, and the waves that travel down a rope or spring are all examples of what waves.

How fast can a 4000 kg truck travel around a 70 m radius turn without skidding if its tires share a 0.6 friction coefficient wit

aleksley [76]

Answer:

Velocity of truck will be 20.287 m /sec

Explanation:

We have given mass of the truck m = 4000 kg

Radius of the turn r = 70 m

Coefficient of friction $\mu =0.6$

Centripetal force is given $F=\frac{mv^2}{r}$

And frictional force is equal to $F_{frictional}=\mu mg$

For body to be move these two forces must be equal

So $\frac{mv^2}{r}=\mu mg$

$v=\sqrt{\mu rg}=\sqrt{0.6\times 70\times 9.8}=20.287m/sec$

What is the charge on 1.0 kg of protons? (e = 1.60 × 10-19 c, mproton = 1.67 × 10-27 kg)?

Andru [333]

First, we need to find the number of protons, which is the total mass divided by the mass of one proton:
$N= \frac{m}{m_p}= \frac{1.0 kg}{1.67 \cdot 10^{-27} kg}=6.0 \cdot 10^{26}$ protons

Then, the total charge is the number of protons times the charge of a single proton:
$Q=Ne = 6.0 \cdot 10^{26}\cdot 1.60 \cdot 10^{-19} C=9.6 \cdot 10^7 C$
