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>

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

  \tau =37.34\ N m

Explanation:

given,

mass of the weight = 8 Kg

distance = 0.55 m

angle below horizontal = 30°

torque about shoulder

  \tau = \vec{r} \times \vec{F}

  \tau = r \times F cos \theta

  \tau = 0.55 \times 8 \times 9.8 \times cos 30^0

  \tau =37.34\ N m

torque about his shoulder join is equal to   \tau =37.34\ N m

ANTONII [103]

Answer:

Explanation:

a) ωp = 2π radians / 1.7 s = <u>3.7 rad/s</u>

b) ωs = 3.7 rad/s(9.5 cm / 4.5 cm) = 7.8 rad/s

  v = (ωs)R = 7.8(65) = 507 cm/s or <u>5.1 m/s</u>

c) ωs = 3.5 m/s / 0.65 m = 5.38 rad/s

ωp = 5.38(4.5 cm / 9.5 cm) = 2.55 rad/s

t = θ/ω = 2π / 2.55 = 2.463... <u>2.5 s</u>
