What is the correct answer?

Which location, 23 degrees or 48 degrees would experience the same earthquake at stronger intensity?Explain why.

BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

48 degress

Explanation:

An earthquake causes many different intensities of shaking in the area of the epicenter where it occurs. So the intensity of an earthquake will vary depending on where you are. Sometimes earthquakes are referred to by the maximum intensity they produce. In the United States, we use the Modified Mercalli Scale. Earthquake intensity is a ranking based on the observed effects of an earthquake in each particular place. Therefore, each earthquake produces a range of intensity values, ranging from highest in the epicenter area to zero at a distance from the epicenter.

To Mr. H's disgust, a 450-g black crow is raiding the recently-filled bird feeder. As Mr. H runs out the back door with his broo

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

Actually it's 2.50 m/s, sorry

Explanation:

It is solved by using momentum conservation equation

combined mass of crow and feeder = 450+670=1120 gm

let the recoil speed of feeder be v m/s

Then applying momentum conservation we get;

1120×1.5 = 670×v

v= 2.50 m/s

the speed at which the feeder initially recoils backwards = 2.50 m/s

To find the mass of the planet we will apply the relationship of the given circumference of the planet with the given data and thus find the radius of the planet. From the kinematic equations of motion we will find the gravitational acceleration of the planet, and under the description of this value by Newton's laws the mass of the planet, that is,

The circumference of the planet is,

$\phi = 25.1m$

Under the mathematical value the radius would be

$\phi = 2\pi r$

$r = \frac{25}{2\pi}$

$r = 3.9788km$

Using second equation of motion

$x = \frac{1}{2} at^2$

Replacing the values given,

$1.4 = \frac{1}{2} a (29.2)^2$

Rearranging and solving for 'a' we have,

$a = 0.003283m/s^2$

Using the value of acceleration due to gravity from Newton's law we have that

$a = \frac{GM}{r^2}$

Here,

r = Radius of the planet

G = Gravitational Universal constant

M = Mass of the Planet

$\frac{(6.67*10^{-11})*M}{(3.9788*10^3)^2} = 0.003283$

$M = 7.79201*10^{14}kg$

Therefore the mass of this planet is $7.79201*10^{14}kg$

In a house 5 bulbs of 25 watts each are used for 6 hours a day.Calculate the unit of electricity consumed in a month of 30 days.

Svetradugi [14.3K]

(5 bulbs) x (25 watt/bulb) x (6 hour/day) x (30 day/month) =

   (5 x 25 x 6 x 30) watt-hour/month =

   22,500 watt-hour/month .

The most common unit of electrical energy used for billing purposes
is the 'kilowatt-hour' = 1,000 watt-hours .

   22,500 watt-hour/month = <em>22.5 kWh/month</em>.

   (22.5 kWh/month) x (1.50 Rs/kWh) = <em>33.75 Rs / month
