What is determined by motion and the spacing of particles?

1 answer:

7 0

Heat and pressure are determined by motion and the spacing of particles, since the faster these particles in question are moving, the more kinetic energy takes place--leading to more heat.

Use the accompanying seismogram to answer which of the three types of seismic waves reached the seismograph first.

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

Primary waves (P-waves)

Explanation:

Due to excess of the energy inside the earth when the tectonic plates begin to slide or fracture then the energy is released in the form of seismic waves, this causes the earthquake.

<u>Two types of seismic waves are generally responsible for the earth quakes:</u>

body waves
surface waves

Body waves are of two types:

Primary waves (P-waves)

These are the fastest of all the waves involved in the earth-quake which travel at a speed of 1.6 km to 8 km per second.

They can pass trough solids, liquids and gases. They arrive at the surface as an instant thud.

Secondary waves (S-waves)

They can only pass through the solids and they move slower than the P-waves.

As S-waves move, they displace the rock particles, pushing them outwards perpendicular to the wave-path that leads to the earthquake-related first rolling period.

Surface waves (L-waves/ long waves)

These waves move along the surface of the earth. They are responsible for the earthquake's carnage.

They move up and down the Earth's surface, rocking the foundations of man-made structures.

Surface waves are slowest of the three waves, which means that they are the last to arrive. So at the end of an earthquake usually comes the most powerful shaking.

A simple generator is used to generate a peak output voltage of 19.0 V . The square armature consists of windings that are 6.65

salantis [7]

One of the efficient concepts that can help us find the number of turns of the cable is through the concept of induced voltage or electromotive force given by Faraday's law. The electromotive force or emf can be described as,

$\epsilon = NBA\omega$

Where,

N = Number of loops

B = Magnetic Field

A = Cross-sectional Area

$\omega$ = Angular velocity

Re-arrange to find N,

$N = \frac{\epsilon}{BA\omega}$

Our values are given as,

$\epsilon = 19V$

$B = 0.434T$

$\omega = 49.8\frac{rev}{s} (\frac{2\pi rad}{1 rev}) = 99.6\pi rad/s$

$A = (6.65*10^{-2})^2 m^2$

Replacing at our equation we have:

$N = \frac{\epsilon}{( 0.434)A\omega}$

$N = \frac{19}{( 0.434)((6.65*10^{-2})^2)(99.6\pi)}$

$N = 31.63 \approx 32$

Therefore the number of loops of wire should be wound on the square armature is 32 loops

The atmosphere of Mercury and Mars are very thin. What effect does the thin atmosphere have on the temperature on the surface of

KengaRu [80]

Answer:

Very hot during the day and very cold at night.

Explanation:

Due to the thin atmosphere, they have very hot climate during the day time and very cold climate at night. This happens because they contain very low amounts of greenhouse gases. These gases retain the heat at night. The atmosphere also prevents excessive light and UV rays from entering. The thin atmosphere leads to many asteroids and comets hitting the surface of the planet. On earth, these asteroids usually, burn up in the mesosphere layer of the atmosphere. These asteroid collisions cause massive fires. This in turn, causes the temperature to increase during the day. During the night time, massive fires cannot burn due to the low temperature because of the lack of greenhouse gases.

weight of Ali is 500andN.he is standing on the ground with an area of 0.025 m^2 area .we can find pressure under his feet. what

Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

20000 Pa

Explanation:

Pressure is defined as the force per unit area.

Mathematically : P =F/A where F is force and A is area

Force = 500 N

Area= 0.025 m²

P= 500/0.025
