"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.

kkurt [141]

Answer:

2.083 V.

Explanation:

Stopping potential is the potential that is required to stop the current to zero . This potential is applied externally to oppose the potential created by the photoelectric effect . It gives the measure the photoelectric potential being generated .

Here current drops to 25 μA to 19 μA by a potential of 500mV

Change in current

= 25 - 19 = 6 μA

Voltage requirement for unit reduction in current

= 500 / 6 μA

To reduce current 0f 25 μA

requirement of V = (500 / 6 )  x 25 =   2083.33 mV = 2.083 V.

A small block with a mass of 0.0600 kg is attached to a cord passing through a hole in a frictionless, horizontal surface (Figur
pogonyaev

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that mass of block=0.0600 kg

Initial speed of block=0.63 m/s

Distance of block  from the hole when the block is revolved=0.47 m

Final speed=3.29 m/s

Distance of block  from the hole when the block is revolved=9\times 10^{-2}m

a.We have to find the tension in the cord in the original situation when the block has speed =v_0=0.63 m/s

T=\frac{mv^2}{r}

Because tension is equal to centripetal force

Substitute the values

T=\frac{0.06\times (0.63)^2}{0.47}=0.05 N

b.v=3.29 m/s

T=\frac{mv^2}{r}=\frac{0.06\times (3.29)^2}{0.09}=7.2 N

c.Work don=Final K.E-Initial K.E

W=\frac{1}{2}m(v^2-v^2_0)

W=\frac{1}{2}(0.06)((3.29)^2-(0.63)^2)

W=0.31 J

. What is the relationship between potential energy, kinetic energy, and speed as the skater moves down and up the U-shaped ramp
kykrilka [37]
Top of the U ramp: potential energy is the highest, while kinetic energy is the lowest

Bottom of the U ramp(aka the curve part): potential energy is the lowest and the kinetic energy is the highest

THEREFORE, PE and KE have an INVERSE RELATIONSHIP.

Honeybees accumulate charge as they fly, and they transfer charge to the flowers they visit. Honeybees are able to sense electri
Vilka [71]

Answer:

ΔE> E_minimo

We see that the field difference between these two flowers is greater than the minimum field, so the bee knows if it has been recently visited, so the answer is if it can detect the difference

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use the electric field expression

         E = k q / r²

where k is the Coulomb constant that is equal to 9 109 N m² /C², q the charge and r the distance to the point of interest positive test charge, in this case the distance to the bee

let's calculate the field for each charge

 

Q = 24 pC = 24 10⁻¹² C

         E₁ = 9 10⁹ 24 10⁻¹² / 0.20²

         E₁ = 5.4 N / C

Q = 32 pC = 32 10⁻¹² C

         E₂ = 9 10⁹ 32 10⁻¹² / 0.2²

         E₂ = 7.2 N / C

let's find the difference between these two fields

         ΔE = E₂ -E₁

         ΔE = 7.2 - 5.4

         ΔE = 1.8 N / C

the minimum detection field is

         E_minimum = 0.77 N / C

        ΔE> E_minimo

We see that the field difference between these two flowers is greater than the minimum field, so the bee knows if it has been recently visited, so the answer is if it can detect the difference
