What is the largest tsunami ever recorded

Physics
1 answer:
Vlada [557]3 years ago
8 0
<h2>Answer: The tsunami occurred on 1958 at Lituya Bay, Alaska. </h2>

The Lituya Bay tsunami occurred on July 9th, 1958, northeast of the Gulf of Alaska. It was as a consequence of a strong earthquake of magnitude 8.3 on the Ritchter scale along the Fairweather Fault in the Alaskan Panhandle, which caused a landslide in a fjord in Lituya Bay, collapsing an entire mountain and generating a gigantic wave that rose to <u>524 meters</u>, the highest recorded so far.

It should be noted that despite its great magnitude and having uprooted all the trees and vegetation of the place, this mega-tsunami claimed only five lives because the area was not as inhabited as the large cities are.

Which embedded molecule in the cell membrane moves large molecules into and out of the cell?
Nezavi [6.7K]


The correct  answer is A.

The cell membrane consists of a phospholipid bilayer with embedded proteins. Sometimes molecules are just too big to easily flow across the plasma membrane or dissolve in the water so that they can be filtered through the cell membrane. In these  cases , the cells must put out a little energy to help get molecules in and out of the cell.

The proteins embedded in the plasma membrane form channels through which other molecules can pass. Some proteins act as carriers, that is they are 'paid" in energy to let a molecule attach to itself and  then transport that molecule inside the cell. This is called active transport.

5. Suppose that you wish to construct a simple ac generator having an output of 24 V maximum when rotated at 120 Hz. A uniform m
vazorg [7]

Answer:

32 turns

Explanation:

From the expression for the induced emf,

E = (N)(B)(A) w

E = emf = 24 V

N = number of turns = ?

B = magnetic field strength = 0.10 T

A = Cross sectional Area of the loop = 100 cm² = 0.01 m²

w = Angular speed = (2πf) = (2π × 120) = 754.3 rad/s

24 = N (0.1)(0.01)(754.3)

N = (24/0.7543)

N = 31.8 ≈ 32 turns.

Hope this Helps!!!
