Earthquakes occur in the crust or upper mantle, from the earth’s surface to about 400 miles below the surface. But the very deepest earthquakes only occur at subduction zones where cold crustal rock is being pushed deep into the earth. In California, earthquakes are almost all in the top 15 miles of the crust, except in northern California along the Cascadia Subduction Zone, which extends into Oregon, Washington, and British Columbia.(tectonic plate boundaries)

Answer:

D. The frequency is not affected as the volume of sound increases

Explanation:

Volume of the sound is defined by the amplitude of the wave or how loud a sound is whereas Frequency is basically the pitch of the sound and is inversely proportional to the wavelength . Increasing frequency will increase the pitch of the sound without affecting it's volume.

A 5 kg fish swimming at 1 m/s swallows an absentminded 500 g fish swimming toward it at a velocity that brings both fish to a ha
AlexFokin [52]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the conservation of momentum. Momentum is defined as the product between mass and velocity of each body. And its conservation as the equality between the initial and final momentum. Mathematically described as

m_1u_1+m_2u_2 = (m_1+m_2)v_f

Here

m_1 = Mass of big fish

m_2 = Mass of small fish

v_1 = Velocity of big fish

v_2 = Velocity of small fish

v_F = Final Velocity

The big fish eats small fish and the final velocity is zero. Rearrange the equation for the initial velocity of small fish we have

m_1u_1=-m_2u_2

u_2 = -\frac{m_1u_1}{m_2}

Replacing we have,

u_2 = -\frac{(5kg)(1m/s)}{0.5kg}

u_2 = -10m/s

The negative sign indicates that the small fish is swimming in the direction opposite to that of the big fish.

Therefore the speed of the small fish is 10m/s

A particle travels in a circle of radius 76 cm and completes one revolution in 4.5 s. What is the centripetal acceleration of th
Dimas [21]

r = radius of the circle traveled by the particle = 76 cm = 0.76 m

T = time period of revolution for the particle = 4.5 s

w = angular velocity of the particle

angular velocity of the particle is given as

w = 2π/T

inserting the values

w = 2 (3.14)/4.5

w = 1.4 rad/s

a = centripetal acceleration of the particle in the circle

centripetal acceleration is given as

a = r w²

inserting the values

a = (0.76) (1.4)²

a = 1.5 m/s²

What is transferred through sound waves?
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

Sound waves transfer energy by causing successive compressions and rarefactions in the particles of the medium without transporting the medium particles themselves. Sound in solids can also manifest as transverse waves, causing crests and troughs in the propagation medium.
