Answer:d. Ground waves

Explanation:A P-wave is one of the two main types of seismic waves. P-waves travel faster than other seismic waves and hence are the first signal from an earthquake to arrive at any affected location or at a seismograph

<u>Answer:</u>

The correct options are A and C.

<u>Explanation :</u>

When there is a sudden release of energy due to earthquake or any type of explosion inside the earth, then this energy is transferred in the form of waves called Seismic Waves.

Seismograph helps us to measure these waves. These seismic waves can be categorized as Body Waves and Surface Wave.  

Body Waves propagate inside the earth in all directions, and are further classified as Primary Waves (P-Waves) and Secondary Waves (S-Waves).The Surface Waves move along the earth’s surface, like the ripples on water surface.

At what distance between two objects would you have the greatest gravitational force
Alla [95]

The gravitational force is inversely proportional to the
square of the distance between their centers.  So the
force is greatest when the distance is zero.

An incompressible fluid flows steadily through a pipe that has a change in diameter. The fluid speed at a location where the pip
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

The value is v_2 =  5.53 \  m /s

Explanation:

From the question we are told

  The pipe diameter at location 1 is  d  = 8.8 \  cm =  \frac{8.8 }{10} = 0.88 \ m

   The velocity at location 1 is  v_1 =  2.4 \  m /s

   The diameter at location 2 is  d_2 =  5.80 \  cm  =  0.58 \  m

Generally the area at location 1 is  

       A_1 =  \pi *  \frac{d^2}{ 2}

=>     A_1 =  \pi *  \frac{0.88^2}{ 2}

=>     A_1 = 3.142 *  \frac{0.88^2}{ 2}

=>     A_1 = 1.2166 \  m^2

Generally the area at location 1 is  

       A_2 =  \pi *  \frac{d_1^2}{ 2}

=>     A_2 =  \pi *  \frac{0.58^2}{ 2}

=>     A_2 = 0.528  \  m^2

Generally from continuity equation we have that

     A_1 * v_1 =  A_2 * v_2

=>   1.2166 *   2.4   =  0.528   * v_2

=>   1.2166 *   2.4   =  0.528   * v_2

=>    v_2 =  5.53 \  m /s
