<span>P waves 

P-waves are sometimes called pressure waves, and sometimes they are called longitudinal waves. P-waves are transmitted through the Earth’s interior with a backwards and forwards motion along the line of travel, by alternating compression and dilatation. A jack hammer creates P-waves. They are capable of passing through any type of material they encounter, including the liquid of the Earth’s outer core, although they 
will be bent and deflected when they pass across the boundaries separating 
layers of different densities. 


I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly. We hope to answer more of your questions and inquiries soon. Have a nice day ahead!

ValentinkaMS [17]
There are several information's already given in the question. Based on those given information's the answer can be easily deduced. 
First angle of depression = 18°33'
                                        = [18 + (33/60)] degree
                                        = 18.55 degrees
Second angle of depression = 51°33'
                                              = [51 + (33/60)] degrees
                                              = 51.55 degrees
Height of the lighthouse = 200 feet
Then
Distance traveled by the boat from when it
was first noticed until it stopped = (200/tan 18.55) - (200/tan 51.55)
                                                   = (200/0.3356) - (200/1.2594)
                                                   = 594.95 - 158.81
                                                   = 436.14 feet
I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand.

The drawing shows three particles far away from any other objects and located on a straight line. The masses of these particles
miss Akunina [59]

Formula of the gravitational force between two particles:

F=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}

where

G=6.67 \cdot 10^{-11} Nm^2 kg^{-2} is the gravitational constant

m1 and m2 are the masses of the two particles

r is their distance


(a) particle A

The gravitational force exerted by particle B on particle A is

F_B=G\frac{m_A m_B}{r^2}=(6.67 \cdot 10^{-11}) \frac{(340 kg)(567 kg)}{(0.500 m)^2}=5.14 \cdot 10^{-5} N to the right

The gravitational force exerted by particle C on particle A is

F_C=G\frac{m_A m_C}{r^2}=(6.67 \cdot 10^{-11}) \frac{(340 kg)(139 kg)}{(0.500 m+0.250m)^2}=5.6 \cdot 10^{-6} N to the right

So the net gravitational force on particle A is

F_A = F_B + F_C =5.14 \cdot 10^{-5} N+5.6 \cdot 10^{-6} N=5.7 \cdot 10^{-5} N to the right


(b) Particle B

The gravitational force exerted by particle A on particle B is

F_A=G\frac{m_A m_B}{r^2}=(6.67 \cdot 10^{-11}) \frac{(340 kg)(567 kg)}{(0.500 m)^2}=-5.14 \cdot 10^{-5} N to the left

The gravitational force exerted by particle C on particle B is

F_C=G\frac{m_B m_C}{r^2}=(6.67 \cdot 10^{-11}) \frac{(567 kg)(139 kg)}{(0.250 m)^2}=8.41 \cdot 10^{-5} N to the right

So the net gravitational force on particle B is

F_B = F_A + F_C =-5.14 \cdot 10^{-5} N+8.41 \cdot 10^{-5} N=3.27 \cdot 10^{-5} N to the right


(c) Particle C

The gravitational force exerted by particle A on particle C is

F_A=G\frac{m_A m_C}{r^2}=(6.67 \cdot 10^{-11}) \frac{(340 kg)(139 kg)}{(0.500 m+0.250m)^2}=-5.6 \cdot 10^{-6} N to the left

The gravitational force exerted by particle B on particle C is

F_B=G\frac{m_B m_C}{r^2}=(6.67 \cdot 10^{-11}) \frac{(567 kg)(139 kg)}{(0.250 m)^2}=-8.41 \cdot 10^{-5} N to the left

So the net gravitational force on particle C is

F_C = F_B + F_A =-8.41 \cdot 10^{-5} N-5.6 \cdot 10^{-6} N=-8.97 \cdot 10^{-5} N to the left

A car is traveling at a speed of 33 m/s . (a) what is its speed in kilometers per hour? (b) is it exceeding the 90 km/h speed li
Zina [86]

According to the statement:

a) speed is equal to 118 km/h in kilometres per hour.

b) yes it is exceeding 90km/h.

<h3>What does speed mean?</h3>

The pace at which an object's position changes in any direction is referred to as speed. Speed is defined as the ratio of something like the distance traversed to the time required to cover that distance. . . Speed is a scalar quantity since it just has a direction and no magnitude..

<h3>How are the speeds determined?</h3>

Speed is determined by dividing the distance by the time. Calculating the units for speed requires knowledge of the units for both time and distance.. The units in this example will be meters per second (m/s), since the distance is measured in meters (m) and the time is measured in seconds (s).

(a)s₂= 118.km/h is its speed in kilometres per hour.

1h = 3600s

1km = 1000m

s₂= (33m/s) *\left(\frac{60 \times 60}{1000}\right)

= 118.8km/h

s₂= 118.km/h

(b) yes it is exceeding 90km/h.
