Answer: Tornado

Explanation:

A tornado is a type of wind storm which exhibit a tall funnel shaped column of air. The air spins round very fast in tornado and causes a lot of damage. The powerful wind column makes a wind spiral possibly around a center exhibiting a low atmospheric pressure. These storms are also called as twisters. The objects, trees, buildings and human beings which come in contact with the tornado get affected and destroyed.

You're talking about a <em>tornado</em>.

It's not so much the low pressure that's so dangerous in the center of a tornado.  It's more a matter of the high winds that are <em>caused </em>by the low pressure.

We will apply the conservation of linear momentum to answer this question.

Whenever there is an interaction between any number of objects, the total momentum before is the same as the total momentum after. For simplicity's sake we mostly use this equation to keep track of the momenta of two objects before and after a collision:

m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = m₁v₁' + m₂v₂'

Note that v₁ and v₁' is the velocity of m₁ before and after the collision.

Let's choose m₁ and v₁ to represent the bullet's mass and velocity.

m₂ and v₂ represents the wood block's mass and velocity.

The bullet and wood will stick together after the collision, so their final velocities will be the same. v₁' = v₂'. We can simplify the equation by replacing these terms with a single term v'

m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = m₁v' + m₂v'

m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = (m₁+m₂)v'

Let's assume the wood block is initially at rest, so v₂ is 0. We can use this to further simplify the equation.

m₁v₁ = (m₁+m₂)v'

Here are the given values:

m₁ = 0.005kg

v₁ = 500m/s

m₂ = 5kg

Plug in the values and solve for v'

0.005×500 = (0.005+5)v'

v' = 0.4995m/s

v' ≅ 0.5m/s

The longer the time between the arrival of the P-wave and S-wave, the _______ is the epicenter.
Brrunno [24]

The longer the time between the arrival of the P-wave and S-wave, the <u>farther away</u> is the epicenter.

<h3>What is epicenter and the relation between P-wave and S-wave?</h3>
  • The point on the earth's surface vertically above the hypocenter (or focus), point in the crust where a seismic rupture begins is said to be epicenter.
  • There are two types of waves during earthquakes, they are:
  1. P - wave
  2. S - wave
  • Each seismograph records the times when the first (P waves) and second (S waves) seismic waves arrive.
  • From the graph, through the information, scientists can determine how fast the waves are traveling.
  • The longer the time between the arrival of the P-wave and S-wave, the farther away is the epicenter.

Hence, Option B is the correct answer.
