What is the name given to instruments that sense earthquake waves and transmit them to a recording device?

Physics

Answer:

seismograph or seismometer.

Explanation:

Seismograph is an instrument used to detect and record earthquakes.

It has a mass attached to a fixed base. During an earthquake, the base moves and the mass does not. The motion of the base with respect to the mass is commonly transformed into an electrical voltage. The electrical voltage is recorded. This record is proportional to the motion of the seismometer mass relative to the earth, but it can be mathematically converted to a record of the absolute motion of the ground.

while flying a plane parallel to the ground a pilot releases a fuel tank in order to reduce the planes mass. what is the tanks f
stepan [7]

La velocidad vertical del tanque después de caer 10 m es 14 m/seg .

La velocidad vertical del tanque se calcula mediante la aplicación de la fórmula de velocidad , la componente vertical Vfy, del movimiento horizontal como se muestra a continuación :

Vfy=?

  h = 10 m

                              Fórmula de Velocidad vertical Vfy:

                           Vfy²  = 2*g*h

                            Vfy= √(2*9.8m/seg2* 10m )

                            Vfy= 14 m/seg

Which statement most accurately describes the second law of thermodynamics?
balandron [24]

Answer:

Energy cannot be changed from one form to another without a loss of usable energy

Explanation:

Second law of thermodynamics states that the total entropy or the randomness of the system remains constant over time.  It also states that the net entropy will remain the same or it will increase.

Entropy of a system is given by heat absorbed divided by temperature. It is given by :

\Delta S=\dfrac{\Delta Q}{T}

So, the correct option is (A) "Energy cannot be changed from one form to another without a loss of usable energy".

What happens to the current supplied by the battery when you add an identical bulb in parallel to the original bulb?
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

b. The current stays the same.

Explanation:

In the case given current is supplied by the battery to a bulb . Here, we should know that bulb also apply resistance to the flow of current .

Now, when an identical bulb is connected in parallel to the original bulb .

Therefore, both the resistance( bulb) are in parallel.

We know, when two resistance are in parallel , current through them is same and voltage is divided between them.

Therefore, in this case current stays same in the original bulb.

Hence, this is the required solution.
