There is a 33% chance of a large earthquake off the coast of Oregon.

The two main concerns of a large earthquake are Gas fires and Tsunami .

Explanation:

Everytime a large earthquake hits in any other part of the world, We find a small earthquake hitting off the coast of Oregon.

So scientists feel that as United States is prone to Earthquakes, the people have to be prepared for such eventualities.

The main concern for this large earthquake is, that it might lead to gas leakages at homes that can start a gas fire, which might spread. So people have to be careful and check  on any gas leakages.

Such large earthquakes can also lead to tsunami waves. So people have to take precautions and evacuate, if they are near the coastline.

Answer:

d) F

Explanation:

According to columb's law:

"The magnitude of electrostatic force between two charges is directly proportional to the product of magnitude of two charges and inversly proportional to separation between them."

If q₁ and q₂ are magnitude of two charges, d is distance between them and k is dielectric constant, then force F is given by

                                               

                                              F=\frac{kq_{1}q_{2}}{d^2}

According to this force exerted on point charge Q is same as that of 3Q, so force point 3Q charge experience is also F

The speed of sound in air is 345 m/s. A tuning fork vibrates above the open end of a sound resonance tube. If sound waves have w
Delvig [45]

To develop this problem it is necessary to apply the concept of Frequency based on speed and wavelength.

According to the definition the frequency can be expressed as

f = \frac{v}{\lambda}

Where,

v = Velocity

\lambda = Wavelength

Our value are given by,

v = 345m/s

\lambda = 63cm

Replacing

f = \frac{345}{0.63}

f = 547.61Hz

Therefore the frequency of the tuning fork is 547.61Hz

When the heat source is removed from a fluid, convection currents in the fluid will eventually ____________then stop.
Blizzard [7]

When the heat source is removed from a fluid, convection currents in the fluid will eventually distribute heat uniformly throughout the fluid.  When all of the fluid is at the same temperature, convection currents will stop.

All of the following would be questions that could be scientifically investigated except:

Answer:

"What is the best advice a parent can give a child?"

Explanation:

The other answers have one clear response. Ex: Orange popsicles melt faster than grape popsicles. That would be a fact.

But parental advice can vary, depending on your opinion. I may say that all parents must teach their children not to talk to strangers, while someone else may say that parents should advice their kids to treat everyone fairly. Nothing can be proven as the only appropriate response.

Hope this helps!
