Answer:

Because rocks in eastern North America are generally "older and colder" than those in the West: all else being equal, an M 7 earthquake that strikes on the east coast of the US would produce shaking that would be felt (C) over a greater area than a similar quake that occurred in the western US.

Explanation:

because the rocks are older they may not have the strength to withstand the vibration of the quake so it can be felt over a greater area.

An earthquake is simply the shaking of the earth surface that is being resulted from a sudden release of energy, in the lithosphere of the  Earth and it then creates a seismic waves.

Earthquakes are generally caused when the rock underground suddenly breaks along a crack.

Answer:

B

Explanation:

It will produce an effect that would be felt over a smaller area when compared with the effect of same earthquake that occurred in the western US due to the compactness in the structure as result of cold temperature

ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

The baseball would seem to be traveling with a velocity 0.98918c of 98.92% of the speed of light as seen from the Earth.

Explanation:

This problem involves the relativistic effects. The pitcher throws the ball with a velocity u​​​​​​​​​​​​' which is 65% of the speed of light c i.e. u' = 0.65c

The velocity V of the spaceship in which he is practicing is 95% of the speed of light. Therefore V = 0.95c

So if the ball is thrown in the same direction as the direction of the spacecraft's motion, then classically, the velocities would add up and exceed the speed of light. But we know that this is not possible. It is prohibited by the special theory of relativity. So we need to consider the relativistic addition of velocities to calculate the velocity (u) of the ball as seen from the Earth.

The formula for relativistic addition of velocities is expressed below,

u=\frac{V+u'}{1+\frac{Vu'}{c^2}}

We know that u' = 0.65c and V = 0.95c. now we can calculate u which is the velocity of the baseball as seen from Earth as follows

u=\frac{0.95c+0.65c}{1+\frac{0.95c\times 0.65c}{c^2}}

u=\frac{1.6c}{1+\frac{0.6175c^2}{c^2}}

u = \frac{1.6c}{1.6175}

u = 0.98918c

So the baseball would seem to be traveling with a velocity 0.98918c of 98.92% of the speed of light as seen from the Earth.
