Answer: Tsunami.

Explanation :

Tsunami is the result of a sudden vertical offset in the ocean floor and is most often the result of plate movement on the ocean floor.

Tsunami is caused due to the displacement of a large volume of water like in an ocean. It consists of a series of waves. It destroys coastlines and coastal settlements. It is also known as a tidal wave.

So, the correct option is (b) Tsunami.

The sine of the incident angle is 0.217; the sine of the refracted angle is 0.173. Calculate the index of refraction.
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

1.3.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Sine of incident angle (Sine i) = 0.217

Sine of refracted angle (Sine r) = 0.173

Refractive index (n) =?

From snell's law, the Refractive index is simply defined as the ratio of the sine of the incident angle to sine of the refracted angle. Mathematically, it is expressed as:

Refractive index = Sine of incident angle / sine of refracted angle

n = Sine i / Sine r

With the above formula, we can obtain index of refraction as shown below:

Sine of incident angle (Sine i) = 0.217

Sine of refracted angle (Sine r) = 0.173

Refractive index (n) =?

n = Sine i / Sine r

n = 0.217 / 0.173

n = 1.3

Thus, the index of refraction is 1.3.

Balance the following chemical equations
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

Enter an equation of a chemical reaction and click 'Balance'. The answer will appear below

Always use the upper case for the first character in the element name and the lower case for the second character.

To enter an electron into a chemical equation use {-} or e

To enter an ion specify charge after the compound in curly brackets: {+3} or {3+} or {3}. Example: Fe{3+} + I{-} =...

Substitute immutable groups in chemical compounds to avoid ambiguity. For instance equation C6H5C2H5 + O2 = C6H5OH + CO2...

Greg is in a car at the top of a roller-coaster ride. The distance, d, of the car from the ground as the car descends is determi
Talja [164]
The solution to the problem is as follows:

 <span>Average = 80 
So Sum = 80 * 5 = 400 
Mode = 88, so two results are 88 (if three results were 88, then the median would be 88). 
Three results are 81, 88, and 88. 
That leaves 143. We could still have one 81 score, so that leaves the lowest score as 62. 

Greg is in a car at the top of a roller-coaster ride. The distance, d, of the car from the ground as the car descends is determined by the equation d = 144 - 16t2, where t is the number of seconds it takes the car to travel down to each point on the ride. How many seconds will it take Greg to reach the ground? 
d = 144 - 16t2 
0 = 144 - 16t2 
16t^2=144 
t^2=9 
t=3</span>

A ball is thrown straight up from ground level. It passes a 2-m-high window. The bottom of the window is 7.5 m off the ground. T
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

u=14.48m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Height of window h=2m

Height of window off the ground h_g=7.5m

Time to fall and drop t=1.3s

 

Generally the Newton's equation motion  is mathematically given by

 s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

Where

h=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

2=u1.3-\frac{1}{2}*9.8*1.3^2

2=u1.3-8.281

u=7.91m/s^2  

Generally the Newton's equation motion  is mathematically given by

2as=v^2-u^2

Where

-2gh_g=v^2-u^2

-2*9.8*7.5=(7.91)^2-u^2

-147=62.5681-u^2

u=\sqrt{209.5681}

u=14.48m/s

Therefore the  ball’s initial speed

u=14.48m/s
