The boundary between the crust and mantle is marked by a seismic-velocity discontinuity is called Mohorovicic discontinuity.

Mohorovicic discontinuity was discovered by Andrija Mohorovicic in 1909 who was a Croatian seismologist. He realized that the velocity of a seismic wave is related to the material's density where it is moving through. He decoded that the acceleration of the seismic waves that are observed within outer shell of the earth is a compositional change. Thus, the acceleration should be caused by a material of higher density.

What is the speed of a wave with 3Hz frequency and a wavelength of 9 m
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

Given

Frequency (f) = 3Hz

Wavelength = 9 m

Speed = ?

Explanation:

we know

Speed = wavelength * frequency

= 9*3

= 27 m/ s

Indique onde em quantos metros o rapaz chegará com as seguintes condições: S0 = 0 a) v = 3 m/s e t = 2 s b) v = 2 m/s e t = 3,5
Naily [24]

Answer:

I will answer in English.

Here we will use the relation

Velocity*time = distance

So:

a) velocity = 3m/s

time = 2s

Distance = 3m/s*2s = 6m

b) velocity = 2m/s

time = 3.5s

Distance = 2m/s*3.5s = 7m

c) velocity = 10m/s

time = 0.5s

Distance = 10m/s*0.5s = 5m

d) velocity = 4m/s

time = 2.5s

Distance = 4m/s*2.5s = 9m

e) velocity = 1.5m/s

time = 5s

Distance = 1.5m/s*5s = 7.5m
