I am pretty sure that the only statement which is true for particles of the medium of an earthquake P-wave is being shown in the option : b)vibrate parallel to the wave, forming compressions and rarefactions. As you know, it can be formed in two ways : from alternating compressions and rarefactions or primary wave. I bet you will agree with me.

masya89 [10]

Answer:

The decision designer is a step-wise process

Explanation:

A typical decision tree will be like this:

Are there any forces?

YES - then calculate the resultant forces NO - Then no calculations are needed

IF YES - Are the forces balanced? NO - Then no calculations

IF YES - Then calculations can be done.

Resolve the forces to find the resultant of the forces in the question.

A jet is circling an airport control tower at a distance of 20.6 km. An observer in the tower watches the jet cross in front of

lesya [120]

Answer:

197.76 m

Explanation:

r = Radius of the path = 20.6 km = $20.6\times 10^3\ m$

$\theta$ = The angle subtended by moon = $9.6\times 10^{-3}\ rad$

Distance traveled is given by

$s=r\times\theta$

$\Rightarrow s=20.6\times 10^3\times 9.6\times 10^{-3}$

$\Rightarrow s=197.76\ m$

The distance traveled by the jet is 197.76 m
