Because P waves are the fastest seismic waves, they will usually be the first ones that your seismograph... sorry couldn't find anymore info from my teacher, well I couldn't remember all of it.

Adding heat to a liquid causes which of the following physical changes?
SashulF [63]

In almost every case in nature, adding heat to a liquid
causes the density of the liquid to decrease.  That is,
when the liquid gets warmer, it expands and occupies
more space.

The one big exception to this rule is water ! 

Starting with a block of ice at zero°C (32°F), as the ice melts,
becomes water at zero°C, and all the way to 4°C (about 39°F),
its density increases all the way.   That is, it shrinks and occupies
less
volume as it goes from ice at zero°C to water at 4°C.

This sounds like an interesting but insignificant quirk ... until
you realize that if water didn't do this, then life on Earth would
be impossible !

6.  Since we are not sure if the person in the question is actively lifting the crate, we have to determine the downwards force of the crate due to gravity and compare it to the normal force.  

F = ma

F = (15.3)(-9.8)

F = -150N

Since the downwards force of the crate is equivalent to the normal force, it means the person is applying no force in picking up the object.  So to pick up a 150N object from scratch, you would have to exert more force than the weight of the object, so the answer is 294N.


7.  Same idea as question 2.  

First determine the weight of the object:

F = ma

F = (30)(-9.8)

F = -294N

The crate in question is not moving, so the magnitudes of the forces in the upwards and downwards direction has to equal to 0.

-294 + 150N + x = 0

x = 144N  

So the person is exerting 144 N.


10.  First find the force of block B to the right due to its acceleration:

F = ma

F = (24)(0.5)

F = 12N

So block B is moving 12N to the right relative to block A due to block A's movement to the left.  However, block A is being applied a much greater force and is moving quicker to the left than block B is moving to the right of bock A.  The force that is causing block B to experience the lower relative force to the right is because of the friction.  To find the friction:

The sum of the forces in the leftward and rightward direction for block B must equal 12N.

75 - x = 12

x = 63N

So the force of friction of block A on block B is 63N to the left.

Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

Speed greater than 4 m/s

Explanation:

Given that Ms. Kasper is in a panic. Her cat, Penny, is stuck in a tree and about to jump out. In order to save her cat, Ms. Kasper needs to run to the tree, 12 meters away. If it takes her cat, 3 seconds to fall, how fast would Ms. Kasper have to run to save her cat?

The distance = 12 m

Time = 3s

Speed = distance/time

Speed = 12/3

Speed = 4 m/s

Ms Kasper must run at speed more than 4m/s for her to save the cat.
