Which factors are involved in earthquakes formation (multiple choice)

Physics

Answer:

1- Option (A) and (D)

2- Mercalli scale measures earthquake magnitude depending on its size

Explanation:

Earthquake occurs due to the sudden shaking of the earth. During an earthquake, seismic waves are produced, namely P wave and S wave, and this waves propagates through the interior of the earth depending upon its magnitude and intensity, thus<u> travelling below the earth's surface</u>.

Due to this wave propagation<u> the rocks breaks</u> and adjust themselves and the faulting occurs along the weak zones.

<u>According to the Mercalli scale, the earthquake is measured in terms of intensity of the shaking of the ground and the size</u>. If a small area is affected then its magnitude is less but if an earthquake affects a large area then it is a severe one.

A 25.0-kg box of textbooks rests on a loading ramp that makes an angle α with the horizontal. The coefficient of kinetic frictio
Leni [432]

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) When the box starts to slip

static friction = mg sinα

mg cosα x μ =  mg sinα (  μ is coefficient of static friction )

Tanα =  μ  = .35

α  = 19.2°

b ) Once box starts moving , kinetic friction will start applying on it

kinetic friction = mg cos19.2 x .25

= 2.31m

net force downward = mgsin19.2 - mgcos19.2 x .25

= m ( 3.22 - 2.31 )

= .91 m

acceleration downward ( a )   = .91 m / s²

c )

v² = u² + 2 a s

= 0 + 2 x .91 x 5

= 9.1

v = 3 m / s
