How do base-isolators, the rubber and steel pads under some buildings, reduce earthquake damage?
nika2105 [10]

They absorb the energy of seismic waves.

Explanation:

Base - isolators, rubber and steel pads under buildings reduces earthquake damage by absorbing the energy of seismic waves.

  • Earthquakes are produced by the sudden release of energy within the earth which causes displacement and sharp movement on earth surface.
  • There are four main types of waves that are propagated by seismic waves which wrecks havoc.
  • Understanding the waves and their properties has been useful in designing earthquake resistant structures.
  • Base-isolators, rubber and steel pads helps to absorb seismic waves.
  • When seismic waves are absorbed, they are cut off.
  • This way they cannot cause damage.

Bob is pushing a box across the floor at a constant speed of 1.2 m/s, applying a horizontal force whose magnitude is 75 N. Alice
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:75 N

Explanation:

Given

Bob is pushing the box with a force of 75 N with constant speed. Constant speed indicates that net force on the block is zero i.e. friction force is balancing the applied force.

so friction force f=75 N

If Alice is pushing an identical box with constant speed so net force acting on box must be equal to an applied force.

As the friction force is 75 N so Alice must be applying a force of 75 N

An object of mass m has these three forces acting on it (there is no normal force, "no surface"). F1 = 5 N, F2 = 8 N, and F3 = 5
DIA [1.3K]

The figure is missing: find it in attachment.

a) (3i - 5j) N

First of all, we have to write each force as a vector with a direction:

- Force F1 points downward, so along the negative y-direction, so we can write it as

F_1 = -5 j

- Force F2 points to the right, so along the positive x-direction, so we can write it as

F_2 = +8 i

- Force F3 points to the left, so along the negative x-direction, so we can write it as

F_3 = -5 i

Now we can write the net force, by adding the three vectors and separating the x-component from the y-component:

F=F_1+F_2+F_3 = -5j+8i-5i = (8-5)i+(-5)j=(3i-5j)N

b) 5.8 N

The magnitude of the net force can be calculated by applying Pythagorean's theorem on the components of the net force:

F=\sqrt{F_x^2+F_y^2}

where

F_x = 3 N is the x-component

F_y = -5 N is the y-component

Substituting into the equation,

F=\sqrt{(3)^2+(-5)^2}=5.8 N

c) -59.0^{\circ}

The angle of the net force, measured with respect to the positive x-axis (counterclockwise), can be calculated by using the formula

\theta=tan^{-1} (\frac{F_y}{F_x})

where

F_x = 3 N is the x-component

F_y = -5 N is the y-component

Substituting into the equation, we find

\theta = tan^{-1} (\frac{-5}{3})=-59.0^{\circ}

d) 0.84 m/s^2

The acceleration can be found by using Newton's second law:

F=ma

where

F is the net force on an object

m is its mass

a is the acceleration

For the object in the problem, we know

F = 5.8 N

m = 6.9 kg

Solving the equation for a, we find the magnitude of the acceleration:

a=\frac{F}{m}=\frac{5.8}{6.9}=0.84 m/s^2

What is the voltage across an 8.00 nm–thick membrane if the electric field strength across it is 5.50 MV/m?
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

0.044 V

Explanation:

E = Electric field = 5.5\times 10^6\ V/m

d = Thickness of membrane = 8 nm

When the electric field strength is multiplied by the membrane thickness we get the voltage

Voltage across a gap is given by

V=Ed\\\Rightarrow V=5.5\times 10^6\times 8\times 10^{-9}\\\Rightarrow V=0.044\ V

The voltage across the membrane is 0.044 V
