The only real difference is that common seismic waves travel through the ground and sound waves travel through the air. If you had a pipe attached to granite and you were listening to it, you might detect both.

The rate traveled from Amarillo to Austin by a bus averages 60 miles per hour. The bus arrived in Austin after eight hours of tr
jeyben [28]

Answer:

the car would arrive after 10 hr to Austin.

Explanation:

bus average from amarllo to austin = 60 miles per hour

time takne by bus to reach austin = 8 hr

automobile average from amarllo to austin = 60 miles per hour

from the information given in the question:

60 mph ---    8 h

48 mph ---  x h

By using The inverse variation:

60 : 48 = x : 8

60* 8 = 48* x

480 = 48*x

x = 480/48

x = 10 h

the car would arrive after 10 hr to Austin.

The box leaves position x=0x=0 with speed v0v0. The box is slowed by a constant frictional force until it comes to rest at posit
const2013 [10]

Answer:

fr = ½ m v₀²/x

Explanation:

This exercise the body must be on a ramp so that a component of the weight is counteracted by the friction force.

The best way to solve this exercise is to use the energy work theorem

            W = ΔK

Where work is defined as the product of force by distance

           W = fr x cos 180

The angle is because the friction force opposes the movement

          Δk =K_{f} –K₀

          ΔK = 0 - ½ m v₀²

We substitute

         - fr x = - ½ m v₀²      

           fr = ½ m v₀²/x

A person walks 9.0 km directly east and then turns left and heads directly north for 12.0 km. What is his displacement from the
Readme [11.4K]

Explanation:

Given that,

A person walks 9.0 km directly east and then turns left and heads directly north for 12.0 km.

We need to find his displacement from the starting position.

We know that,

Displacement = shortest path covered

D=\sqrt{9^2+12^2} \\\\D=15\ km

For direction,

\theta=\tan^{-1}(\dfrac{d_y}{d_x})\\\\\theta=\tan^{-1}(\dfrac{12}{9})\\\\= $$53.13^{\circ}

Hence, this is the required solution.

Car accelerates 86km/hr in 4.6s . What is the average acceleration in m/s^2
never [62]

speed = 86km/hr

= 86000/3600

= 23.889m/s

time = 4.6s

acceleration = 23.889/4.6

a = 5.19m/s^2
