Differentiate between sound waves and seismic waves?

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.

Seismic Waves travail under ground and Sound Waves travail trough the air.

Hope I could of help in any way.

Well, its in the air, so the air is "upon" the ball. and when it comes down...you catch it, and throw it, and get someone out, and win the game, and just keep doing that, and boooommm you're and pro baseball player. Life is good

An AM radio station broadcasts isotropically (equally in all directions) with an average power of 3.80 kW. A receiving antenna 7

Alecsey [184]

Answer:0.1759 v

Explanation:

Intensity of wave at receiver end is

I= $\frac{P_{avg}}{A}$

I= $\frac{3.80\times 10^3}{4\times \pi \times \left ( 4\times 1609.34\right )^2}$

I= $7.296\times 10^{-6} W/m^2$

Amplitude of electric field at receiver end

$E_{max}=\sqrt{2I\mu _0c}$

Amplitude of induced emf

= $E_{max}d$

= $\sqrt{2\times 7.29\times 10-6\times 4\pi \times 3\times 10^8}\times 0.75$

= $17.591\times 10^{-2}=0.1759 v$

A light ray incident from medium 1 to medium 2, where n1>n2. When the incident angle exceed the critical angle ac, the refrac

vovikov84 [41]

Explanation:

(a)

Critical angle is the angle at the angle of refraction is 90°. After the critical angle, no refraction takes place.

Using Snell's law as:

$n_1\times {sin\theta_i}={n_2}\times{sin\theta_r}$

Where,

${\theta_i}$ is the angle of incidence

${\theta_r}$ is the angle of refraction = 90°

${n_2}$ is the refractive index of the refraction medium

${n_1}$ is the refractive index of the incidence medium

Thus,

$n_1\times {sin\ \theta_{critical}}={n_2}\times{sin\ 90^0}$

The formula for the calculation of critical angle is:

${sin\theta_{critical}}=\frac {n_2}{n_1}$

Where,

${\theta_{critical}}$ is the critical angle

(b)

No it cannot occur. It only occur when the light ray bends away from the normal which means that when it travels from denser to rarer medium.

Why are most of the world’s deserts located between latitudes 10°n to 30°n and 10°s to 30°s.

RoseWind [281]

The bulk of the world's deserts are located at 30 degrees north latitude and 30 degrees south latitude, when the warm equatorial air begins to descend. The heavy, warm, descending air vaporises large amounts of water from the ground's surface. As a result, the environment is rather dry.

<h3>Why are the majority of the desert regions on Earth located between 20 and 30 degrees latitude?</h3>

The zones of falling air are those between 20 and 30 latitudes on the western borders of continents (high pressure and dry weather). As a result, the moisture continues to decrease as the air is compressed and warmed as it falls.

Where the scorching equatorial air starts to descend, the majority of the world's deserts are found between 30 degrees north and 30 degrees south latitude. Large volumes of water are vaporised off the surface of the ground by the thick, warming, falling air. As a result, the climate is extremely dry.
