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>

notsponge [240]

Answer:

<u>2600 cubic centimeters</u>

Explanation:

Volume of the edible fruit is equal to :

⇒ Volume (fruit) - Volume (seed)

⇒ 4/3π(3r)³ - 4/3πr³

⇒ 27 x 4/3πr³ - 4/3πr³

⇒ 100 (27 - 1)

<u>⇒ 2600 cubic centimeters</u>

Answer:

102597.6 Pa

Explanation:

mass, m = 1.25 g

Force, F = m x g = 1.25 x 9.8 x 10^-3 = 0.01225 N

radius, r = 0.195 mm = 0.195 x 10^-3 m

Area, A = πr² = 3.14 x 0.195 x 0.195 x 10^-6 m^2

A = 1.19 x 10^-7 m^2

Pressure is defined as the thrust acting per unit area.

P = Force / Area

P = 0.01225 N / (1.10 x 10^-7)

P = 102597.6 Pa

Thus, the pressure exerted is 102597.6 Pa.
