The answer is:

They are specialized in geology and geophysics

1) Volcanologists are scientific researchers who study the properties of volcanoes and develop the science of predicting volcanic eruptions accurately.

- Volcanoes are the results of fissures in the earth's crust, from which magma, gases, rocks, and ashes can erupt.  


-Volcanic eruptions and their impact on the atmosphere are investigated by specialist geologists known as volcanologists.


A) Volcanologists are scientists who use a variety of sophisticated equipment to measure and analyze volcanic activity, lava, rock, ashes and gases as well as earthquakes caused by eruptions.


B) Also, they measure the magnitude and intensity of explosions, placing them on a scale from 1 to 8 [volcanic explosivity index].  


C)Volcanologists monitor both active and dormant volcanoes to try to predict eruptions and minimize adverse effects on people and their environment.


D)Also, they spend a lot of time collecting and analyzing samples of debris, rocks and other products from extinct volcanoes to gain a better understanding of the processes behind the volcanic activity and the impact former eruptions had in shaping the climate.


2) Seismologists are Earth scientists, specialized in geophysics, who study the genesis and the propagation of seismic waves in geological materials.


-Their research aims at interpreting the geological composition and structures of the Earth. In the case of earthquakes, seismologists evaluate the potential dangers and seek to minimize their impact through the improvement of construction standards.

if 1.5kg block is pulled across a horizontal surface that has a coefficient of kintic friction of 0.60. if a block is pulled by
inysia [295]

Answer:

3.2N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of block  = 1.5kg

Coefficient of kinetic friction  = 0.6

Force of pull on block  = 12N

Unknown:

Net force on the block  = ?

Solution:

Frictional force is a force that opposes motion:

  Net force  = Force of pull  - Frictional force

 Frictional force  = umg

   u is coefficient of kinetic friction

   m is the mass

    g is the acceleration due to gravity

 Frictional force  = 0.6 x 1.5 x 9.8  = 8.8N

 Net force  = 12N  - 8.8N  = 3.2N

A lever is used to lift a heavy rock. The mechanical advantage of the lever is 4 and the lever applies a force of 800 N to the r
Lesechka [4]
 The force applied to the lever is 400 N, because the force applied by the lever (800 N) divided by the mechanical advantage of the lever (4) equals
400 N.

(800/4) = 200

an air craft is travelling due north with velocity of 100m/s astrong wind blow from the west with in velocity of 25m/s the reshs
OleMash [197]

Explanation:

The aircraft is traveling north at 100 m/s.

The wind blows from the west (towards the east) at 25 m/s.

The two vectors form a right triangle.  The magnitude of the resultant velocity can be found with Pythagorean theorem:

v² = vx² + vy²

v² = (25 m/s)² + (100 m/s)²

v = 103 m/s

The direction can be found with trigonometry:

θ = atan(vy / vx)

θ = atan(100 / 25)

θ = 76.0°

The resultant velocity is 103 m/s at 76.0° north of east.
