kakasveta [241]

Answer:

true i think

Explanation:

The amplitude of a sound wave determines its loudness or volume. A larger amplitude means a louder sound, and a smaller amplitude means a softer sound. In Figure 10.2 sound C is louder than sound B. The vibration of a source sets the amplitude of a wave.

1) The mass of the continent is 3.3\cdot 10^{21}kg

2) The kinetic energy of the continent is 1683 J

3) The speed of the jogger must be 6.57 m/s

Explanation:

1)

The continent can be represented as a slab of size

d=5850 km = 5.85\cdot 10^6 m

and depth

t = 35 km = 3.5\cdot 10^4 m

So its volume is

V=d^2 t = (5.85\cdot 10^6)^2(3.5\cdot 10^4)=1.20\cdot 10^{18} m^3

We also know that the density of the continent is

\rho = 2750 kg/m^3

Therefore, we can calculate its mass as:

m=\rho V=(2750)(1.20\cdot 10^{18})=3.3\cdot 10^{21} kg

2)

The kinetic energy of the continent is given by

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

m is its mass

v is its speed

We have already calculate its mass, while the speed is

v = 3.2 cm/year

We have to convert into SI units first, as follows:

v=3.2 \frac{cm}{year} \cdot \frac{1}{100 cm/m} \cdot \frac{1}{(365 d/y)(24h/d)(60min/h)(60 s/min)}=1.01\cdot 10^{-9} m/s

The mass is

m=3.3\cdot 10^{21} kg

So, the kinetic energy of the continent is

K=\frac{1}{2}(3.3\cdot 10^{21})(1.01\cdot 10^{-9})^2=1683 J

3)

Here we have a jogger having the same kinetic energy of the continent, so

K=1683 J

And the kinetic energy of the jogger can be expressed as

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

m = 78 kg is the mass of the jogger

v is his speed

We can therefore re-arrange the equation to find the speed of the man, and we get:

v=\sqrt{\frac{2K}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(1683)}{78}}=6.57 m/s

Qué tipo de onda tiene mayor velocidad: Onda mecánica en un sólido Onda electromagnética Onda mecánica en el aire
kogti [31]

Answer:

Onda electromagnética

Explanation:

Las ondas mecánicas requieren un medio material para la propagación, mientras que las ondas electromagnéticas no requieren un medio material para la propagación.

Generalmente, las ondas electromagnéticas se mueven con una velocidad muy alta.

Todas las ondas electromagnéticas se denominan colectivamente luz y tienen una velocidad común de 3 × 10 ^ 8 m / s en el aire.

Ninguna onda mecánica tiene una velocidad tan alta en el aire.
