Answer:

a. part of the planet's interior is liquid

Explanation:

Seismic waves are slowed down in a liquid medium. On earth, molten areas reduces the speed of P waves and completely stops S waves which have shearing motion that can only be transmitted through a solid

The motion has the highest speed in materials, allowing it to be detected first on seismograms. The P wave is has a smaller wavelength and a higher frequency than the surface ans the S waves.

The ms = 0.5645 and mk=0.1113 for a 30 N box on level ground. What level force is needed to start the box moving
nevsk [136]

Answer:

16.935 N

Explanation:

In order to make the box start moving, the level force applied on the box (F) must be greater than the force of static friction that keeps the box at rest, which is equal to

F_f = \mu_s (mg)

where

\mu_s = 0.5645 is the coefficient of static friction

(mg) = 30 N is the weight of the box

Therefore, the condition for F must be:

F \geq F_f\\F \geq \mu_k (mg)=(0.5645)(30 N)=16.935 N

So, the applied force must be greater than this value.

A car accelerates from rest at 3 m/s for 6 seconds. The velocity of the car after 6 seconds is what ?
Artist 52 [7]

vf = vi + at
then solve for v

so
v = a(t)
so v = (3m/s^2)(6s)

so v = 18m/s
