Will a seismic wave traveling through a solid go slower or faster than a seismic wave traveling through a liquid? Why?

Physics

Snezhnost [94]3 years ago

You can't answer this question because you aren't giving the specific type of seismic waves. There is an s-wave a p-wave and an l-wave. Those are the basic waves. An S-wave cannot travel through a liquid at all. So, obviously it travels slower than any other seismic wave. 


<span>It would travel faster because their speed depends on the density and composition of material that they pass through.</span>

Suddenly a worker picks up the bag of gravel. Use energy conservation to find the speed of the bucket after it has descended 2.3
fiasKO [112]

Explanation:

A worker picks up the bag of gravel. We need to find the speed of the bucket after it has descended 2.30 m from rest. It is case of conservation of energy. So,

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=mgh\\\\v=\sqrt{2gh}

h = 2.3 m

v=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 2.3} \\\\v=6.71\ m/s

So, the speed of the bucket after it has descended 2.30 m from rest is 6.71 m/s.

The moon orbits the earth at a distance of 3.85 x 10^8 m. Assume that this distance is between the centers of the earth and the
Inga [223]

Answer:

27.5 days

0.92 month

Explanation:

r = radius of the orbit of moon around the earth = 3.85\times10^{8} m

M = Mass of earth = 5.98\times10^{24} m

T = Time period of moon's motion

According to Kepler's third law, Time period is related to radius of orbit as

T^{2} = \frac{4\pi ^{2} r^{3}  }{GM}

inserting the values, we get

T^{2} = \frac{4(3.14)^{2} (3.85\times10^{8})^{3}  }{(6.67\times10^{-11})(5.98\times10^{24})}\\T = 2.3754\times10^{6} sec

we know that

1 day = 24 hours = 24 x 3600 sec = 86400 s

T = 2.3754\times10^{6} sec \frac{1 day}{86400 sec} \\T = 27.5 days

1 month = 30 days

T = 27.5 days \frac{1 month}{30 days} \\T = 0.92 month
