Answer: 2940 J
Explanation: solution attached:
PE= mgh
Substitute the values:
PE= 10kg x 9.8 m/s² x 30 m
= 2940 J
The time taken for the first p-wave to reach the same seismic station is approximately 13 minutes.
<h3>Time of travel of the P-wave</h3>
In rock, S waves generally travel about 60% the speed of P waves, and the S wave always arrives after the P wave.
<h3>Relationship between speed and time</h3>
v ∝ 1/t
v₁t₁ = v₂t₂
t₁/t₂ = v₂/v₁
t₁/t₂ = 0.6v₁/v₁
t₁/t₂ = 0.6
t₁ = 0.6t₂
t₁ = 0.6 x 22 mins
t₁ = 13.2 mins
Thus, the time taken for the first p-wave to reach the same seismic station is approximately 13 minutes.

General adaptation syndrome is made of 3 stages; alarm, resistance, and exhaustion. Reaction is NOT one of these stages.
Yes that's correct. Also zeros in between non-zero numbers are significant figures
