c: a combination of longitudinal and transverse

Explanation:

Surface waves are a combination of longitudinal and transverse waves. These waves causes destruction after an earthquake on the ground surface.

  • The surface waves are both rayleigh and love waves.
  • Rayleigh waves and love waves are responsible for the destruction caused by an earthquake.
  • They both have a unique characteristic of being propagated longitudinally and transversely away from their source.
  • The spread compressional disturbance and undulating ones at the same time on the earth surface.
  • These waves are seismic waves.

A 81 kg person sits on a 3.8 kg chair. Each leg of the chair makes contact with the floor in a circle that is 1.2 cm in diameter
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

1.9 MPa

Explanation:

Mass of person = 81 kg

Mass of chair = 3.8 kg

Diameter of contact point = 1.2 cm = D

Radius of contact point = 1.2/2 = 0.6 cm

Total mass of chair and person = 81 + 3.8 = 84.8 kg = M

Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Force acting on the floor

<em>F = Mg</em>

<em>⇒F = 84.8×9.81</em>

<em>⇒F = 831.888 N</em>

Area of the contact point

<em>A = πR²</em>

<em>⇒A = π0.006²</em>

<em>⇒A = π0.000036 m²</em>

Area of the four points is

<em>4A = 0.000144π m²</em>

Pressure

p=\frac{F}{A}\\\Rightarrow p=\frac{831.888}{0.000144\pi}\\\Rightarrow p=1838876.21\ Pa=1.83887621\times 10^6\ Pa=1.9 MPa

Pressure exerted on the floor by each leg of the chair is 1.9 MPa
