Rocks within Earth both expand and contract as P waves pass

Explanation:

Rocks within the earth both expands and contracts as P-waves passes through them. P-waves are elastic waves.

  • Elastic waves behaves in such a way that they do not cause permanent deformation of rocks.
  • They can be said to cause elastic deformation when they travel through rocks.
  • They simply temporarily expand and contract the rock within a short period by causing the vibration of particles of the medium.
  • After a short while, the rock returns back to its original position as if nothing has happened to it.
  • These elastic waves are better called seismic waves.
  • P-waves are primary waves that can travel through any medium.

You measure the velocity of a drag racer that accelerates with constant acceleration. You want to plot the data and determine th
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

a) Linear equation

Explanation:

Definition of acceleration

a=\frac{dv}{dt}\\

if a=constant and we integrate the last equation

v(t)=v_{o}+a*t

So the relation between the time and the velocity is linear. If we plot the velocity in function of time, the plot is a line, and the acceleration is the slope of this line.

Consider a step-down transformer with 15 turns in the primary and 6 turns in the secondary windings. Calculate the input impedan
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

Input impedance of this transformer is 50 ohms.  

Explanation:

Given that,

Number of turns in the primary coil, N_p=15

Number of turns in the secondary coil, N_s=6

Output impedance of the transformer, V_o=8\ \Omega

The number of turns and the impedance ratio in the step down transformer is given by :

\dfrac{15}{6}=\sqrt{\dfrac{Z_p}{Z_s}}\\\\\dfrac{15}{6}=\sqrt{\dfrac{Z_p}{8}}\\\\Z_p=50\ \Omega

So, the input impedance of this transformer is 50 ohms. Hence, this is the required solution.

san4es73 [151]

Answer:

Box 1 has more mass than box 2.

Explanation:

Box 1 has more mass than box 2, as it caused a greater affect in the change of speed of box 2. During a collision, the object with a lesser mass will be affected more, causing the velocity to change more. Because box one is greater than box  2, it caused a larger change in speed when they collided.
