Marina CMI [18]3 years ago
6 0

"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.

Density of water 1000kgper m^3 What will be the volume of 3500<br>kg water​
skad [1K]

Answer:

<em>The volume of water is 3.5 cubic meter</em>

Explanation:

<u>Density </u>

The density of a substance or material is the mass per unit volume. The density varies with temperature and pressure.

The formula to calculate the density of a substance of mass (m) and volume (V) is:

\displaystyle \rho=\frac{m}{V}

We are given the density of water as \rho=1,000\ kg/m^3.It's required to find the volume of m=3,500 kg of water. Solving for V:

\displaystyle V=\frac{m}{\rho}

\displaystyle V=\frac{3,500}{1,000}

V=3.5\ m^3

The volume of water is 3.5 cubic meter

Charles, the 75 kg trampoline artist, lands on a trampoline with a speed of 9.0 m/s.
Softa [21]

Answer:

The maximum distance Charles will push down the trampoline ≈ 0.342 m

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The mass of the trampoline artist, m = 75 kg

The speed with which the trampoline artist lands, v = 9.0 m/s

The value of the spring constant of the trampoline, k = 52,000 N/m

Let x represents the maximum distance Charles will push down the trampoline

Therefore, we have;

Kinetic energy = 1/2·m·v²

The kinetic energy with which the trampoline artist lands  = 1/2 × 75 × 9.0² = 3037.5

The kinetic energy with which the trampoline artist lands  =  3037.5 J

The potential energy stored in a spring = 1/2·k·x² = The kinetic energy with which the trampoline artist lands

∴ 1/2 × 52,000 × x² = 3037.5

∴ x = √(3037.5/(1/2 × 52,000)) ≈ 0.342

The maximum distance Charles will push down the trampoline = x ≈ 0.342 m

The waves from a radio station can reach a home receiver by two paths. One is a straight-line path from transmitter to home, a d
slava [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

The path of waves reaching directly and through reflection from ionosphere will form a isosceles triangle.

Let the height be h . This will be height of a triangle of equal side whose base is of length 32 km. we shall calculate the length of one side of this triangle .

this length be l

l² = 16² + h²

l =  √(256 +h² )

2l = 2√(256 +h² )

path difference = 2l - 32 km

For destructive interference

path difference = wavelength /2 for minimum height .

2l - 32  = .344/2

2√(256 +h² )- 32 = . 172

2√(256 +h² ) = 32.172

4(256 +h² ) = 1035

(256 +h² ) = 258.76

h² = 2.76

h = 1.66 km
