Answer: The correct answer is B.

Explanation:

In longitudinal wave, the vibrations of the particle of the medium is parallel to the direction of the motion of the wave.

In transverse wave, the vibrations of the particle of the medium is perpendicular to the direction of the motion of the wave.

In surface wave, the particles of the medium undergo circular motion. The surface wave is neither longitudinal nor transverse.

Therefore, surface waves are the disturbances which travel in the circular motion.

Doug, who runs track for his high school, was challenged to a race by his younger brother, matt. Matt started running first, and
eduard

The speed of Matt is 10 mph.

Doug runs 2 miles an hour faster than Matt, so let Matt’s speed equal x miles per hour. Then Doug’s speed equals x + 2 miles per hour. Each lap is one-quarter of a mile, so Doug runs 1.5 miles in the time it takes Matt to run 1.25 miles.

Rate of Matt is x

Rate of Dough is (x + 2)

Time taken by Matt is 1.25/x

Time taken by Dough is 1.25/(x + 2)

Distance covered by Matt is 1.25

Distance covered by Dough is 1.5

Dough and  Matt  took the same amount of time from the time Doug started, so make an equation by setting the two times in the chart equal to each other, and then solve for x:

            \frac{1.5}{(x + 2)} = \frac{1.25}{x}

              1.5x = 1.25(x + 2)

              1.5x = 1.25x + 2.5

           0.25x = 2.5

                   x = 10

So Matt ran at 10 miles per hour.

What is the meaning of Constant Acceleration?
lora16 [44]

Any change in speed or direction of motion is acceleration.

Constant acceleration can mean ...

-- speeding up at a constant rate . . . gaining the same amount
of speed each second.

-- slowing down at a constant rate . . . losing the same amount
of speed each second.

-- changing direction at a constant rate . . . for example, going
around a circular path at a constant speed.

The storage coefficient of a confined aquifer is 6.8x10-4 determined by a pumping test. The thickness of the aquifer is 50 m and
Ivanshal [37]

Answer

given,

storage coefficient, S = 6.8 x 10⁻⁴

thickness of aquifer, t = 50 m

porosity of the aquifer, n = 25 % = 0.25

Density of the water, γ = 9810 N/m³

Compressibilty  of water,β = 4.673 x 10⁻¹⁰ m²/N

We know,

   S = γ t(nβ + α)

where, α is the compressibility of the aquifer

   6.8 x 10⁻⁴  =9810 x 50 x (0.25 x 4.673 x 10⁻¹⁰+ α)

     α = 1.269 x 10⁻⁹ m²/N

Expansability of water

            = n t β γ

            = 0.25 x 50 x 4.673 x 10⁻¹⁰ x 9810

            = 5.73 x 10⁻⁵
