The reason for that is that P-waves (primary waves) travel faster than S-waves (secondary waves).
If we call
the speed of the primary waves and
the speed of the secondary waves, and we call
the distance of the seismogram from the epicenter, we can write the time the two waves take to reach the seismogram as
So the lag time between the arrival of the P-waves and of the S-waves is
We see that this lag time is proportional to the distance S, therefore the larger the distance, the greater the lag time.
Answer:
1 N
Explanation:
From coulomb's law,
The force of attraction between two charges is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the charges.
From the question,
Assuming the charges are the same in both case,
F ∝ /r²....................... Equation 1
Fr² = k
F'r'² = Fr²........................... Equation 2
Where F' = First Force, r'² = First distance, F = second force, r² = second distance.
make F the subject of the equation,
F = F'r'²/r².................... Equation 3
Given: F' = 4 N, r' = 3 m, r = 6 m
Substitute into equation 3
F = 4(3²)/6²
F = 36/36
F = 1 N
Answer:
Quads will have more energy
Explanation:
If the acceleration due to gravity increases from 9.81 to 15, then the velocity will increase as the rate of changing velocity i.e acceleration has increased from 9.81 to 15 m/s^2
With increase of velocity, the energy and force will also increase. Hence, the squad will require/have higher energy.
<span>When the question says the ball lands a distance of 235 meters from the release point, we can assume this means the horizontal distance is 235 meters.
Let's calculate the time for the ball to fall 235 meters to the ground.
y = (1/2)gt^2
t^2 = 2y / g
t = sqrt{ 2y / g }
t = sqrt{ (2) (235 m) / (9.81 m/s^2) }
t = 6.9217 s
We can use the time t to find the horizontal speed.
v = d / t
v = 235 m / 6.9217 s
v = 33.95 m/s
Since the horizontal speed is the speed of the plane, the speed of the plane is 33.95 m/s</span>
Answer:
60 km/h
Explanation:
Simplify the speed:
120÷2=60
Hence, the average speed is 60 km/h.
