A because an earthquake is shaking of tectonic plates
Answer:
2100 J
Explanation:
Parameters given:
Force acting on the object, F = 420 N
Distance moved by object, d = 5m
The change in kinetic energy of an object is equal to the work done by a force acting on the object:
W = F * d
∆KE = F * d
∆KE = 420 * 5
∆KE = 2100 J
Answer: 996m/s
Explanation:
Formula for calculating velocity of wave in a stretched string is
V = √T/M where;
V is the velocity of wave
T is tension
M is the mass per unit length of the wire(m/L)
Since the second wire is twice as far apart as the first, it will be L2 = 2L1
Let V1 and V2 be the speed of the shorter and longer wire respectively
V1 = √T/M1... 1
V2 = √T/M2... 2
Since V1 = 249m/s, M1 = m/L1 M2 = m/L2 = m/2L1
The equations will now become
249 = √T/(m/L1) ... 3
V2 = √T/(m/2L1)... 4
From 3,
249² = TL1/m...5
From 4,
V2²= 2TL1/m... 6
Dividing equation 5 by 6 we have;
249²/V2² = TL1/m×m/2TL1
{249/V2}² = 1/2
249/V2 = (1/2)²
249/V2 = 1/4
V2 = 249×4
V2 = 996m/s
Therefore the speed of the wave on the longer wire is 996m/s
Answer:
By induction method
Explanation:
Induction method involves charging an electrically neutral body by bringing it in contact with an electrically charged body.
For the electrophus, a charge opposite that on the slab is induced on the side in contact with the slab; driving the opposite charge (this will be the same as that on the slab) to the other end of the elctrophus. Touching the electrophus removes the charge opposite the charge induced on the electrophus by the charged slab either by drawing up charge from the earth or taking the charge to earth (depends on the charge. A negative charge is drawn to earth while a positive charge draws up electrons from the earth)
