"Four seismometer stations are the minimum needed to calculate the epicenter of an earthquake".

Answer: The above statement is False.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • Seismographs are devices used to measure the movement of earth and it uses a motion sensor named seismometers that are connected with a recording devices.
  • They determine the actual movement of the earth at a particular time and it records the observation.
  • Three seismometers are used to locate the center point of the earthquake region.  
  • Seismograph displays the damage caused by the earthquake in a graphical data based on the readings observed in the seismometer.

densk [106]

Answer:

Explanation:

First, let's review the ideal gas law, PV = nRT. In this equation, 'P' is the pressure in atmospheres, 'V' is the volume in liters, 'n' is the number of particles in moles, 'T' is the temperature in Kelvin and 'R' is the ideal gas constant (0.0821 liter atmospheres per moles Kelvin).

Two hypothetical discoveries in Part A deal with moons that, like Earth's moon, are relatively large compared to their planets.
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Solution:

- Finding large moons comparable in size to their planets result from impacts of two astro-bodies. The probability of such an event occurring is very rare.

- Even at the best luck, one moon can be made from the result of giant impact. While the probability of 6 planets having moons of comparable sizes is close to impossible.

An electron moving at right angles to a 0.1 T magnetic field experiences an acceleration of 6 × 1015 m.s-2. What is the speed of
GaryK [48]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Magnetic field, B = 0.1 T

Acceleration, a=6\times 10^{15}\ m/s^2

Charge on electron, q=1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C    

Mass of electron, m=9.1\times 10^{-31}\ kg    

(a) The force acting on the electron when it is accelerated is, F = ma

The force acting on the electron when it is in magnetic field, F=qvB\ sin\theta

Here, \theta=90

So, ma=qvB

Where

v is the velocity of the electron

B is the magnetic field

v=\dfrac{ma}{qB}

v=\dfrac{9.1\times 10^{-31}\ kg\times 6\times 10^{15}\ m/s^2}{1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C\times 0.1\ T}

v = 341250  m/s

or

v=3.41\times 10^5\ m/s

So, the speed of the electron is 3.41\times 10^5\ m/s

(b) In 1 ns, the speed of the electron remains the same as the force is perpendicular to the cross product of velocity and the magnetic field.

Tenemos un Cable de cobre de 1 km de longitud cuya sección es de 2 milímetros al cuadrado y queremos saber la resistencia que se
Nady [450]

Answer:

8.5 Ω

Explanation:

La resistencia de un material es directamente proporcional a su longitud e inversamente proporcional al área de la sección transversal.

La fórmula de la resistencia (R) viene dada por:

R = ρL/A

Donde ρ es la resistividad del material, L es la longitud del material y A es el área de la sección transversal del material.

Dado que:

L = 1 km = 1000 m, A = 2 mm² = 2 * 10⁻⁶ m², ρ (cobre) = 1.7 * 10⁻⁸ Ωm

Sustituyendo da:

R = 1,7 * 10⁻⁸ * 1000/2 * 10⁻⁶

R = 8.5 Ω
