Answer:

Intensity of an earthquake (passes 1 km) = 8,748 × 10⁶

Explanation:

Given:

Distance (r1) = 54 km

Distance (r2) = 1 Km

Note:

Intensity of an earthquake with 54 km distance is 3.0 × 10⁶ J/m²s is not given.

So,

Intensity of an earthquake with 54 km distance (I₁) = 3.0 × 10⁶ J/m²s

Find:

Intensity when it passed a point only 1.0 km .

Computation:

Intensity of an earthquake = (r1 / r2)² (I₁)

Intensity of an earthquake (passes 1 km) = (54 / 1)²(3.0 × 10⁶)

Intensity of an earthquake (passes 1 km) = (54)²(3.0 × 10⁶)

Intensity of an earthquake (passes 1 km) = 8,748 × 10⁶

Because solar panels are man made so they can shut down, not move, break, etc...? Don’t judge me, it’s just a guess.

Answer:

Oscillation whose amplitude reduce with time are called damped oscillation. This happen because of the friction. In oscillation if its amplitude doesn't change with time then they are called Undamped oscillation

a battery is connected to a resistor. as charge flows, the chemical energy of the battery is dissipated as _________.
balandron [24]

As charge flows, the chemical energy of the battery is dissipated as the time of charge flow increases.

Electric power is defined as the rate at which electric energy is dissipated.

The power of the current flowing through the circuit is calculated as follows;

P = IV

P = I x IR

P = I²R

where;

  • <em>P is the power dissipated</em>
  • <em>I is the current flowing in the circuit</em>
  • <em>R is the resistance of the circuit</em>

The electric energy is given as;

E = Pt

E = I²Rt

Thus, we can conclude that as charge flows, the chemical energy of the battery is dissipated as the time of charge flow increases.
