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 of the following is not a reason fluorescent lamps are advantageous over incandescent lamps?
cricket20 [7]

Answer;

B. Fluorescent lamps operate at a higher temperature than incandescent lamps.

Explanation;

-A fluorescent lamp, is a type of electric light (lamp) that uses ultraviolet emitted by mercury vapor to excite a phosphor, which emits visible light.

-A fluorescent lamp produces less heat, thus, it is much more efficient. A fluorescent bulb can produce between 50 and 100 lumens per watt. This makes fluorescent bulbs four to six times more efficient than incandescent bulbs.

-Fluorescent lamps operate best around room temperature. At much lower or higher temperatures, efficacy decreases.

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

The magnitude of the electric force on a protein with this charge is 7.2\times10^{-15}\ N

Explanation:

Given that,

Electric field = 1500 N/C

Charge = 30 e

We need to calculate the magnitude of the electric force on a protein with this charge

Using formula of electrostatic force

F=Eq

Where, F = force

E = electric field

q = charge

Put the value into the formula

F=1500\times30\times1.6\times10^{-19}

F=7.2\times10^{-15}\ N

Hence, The magnitude of the electric force on a protein with this charge is 7.2\times10^{-15}\ N
