Is it possible for a distance-versus-time graph to be a vertical line?explain

Physics

Oduvanchick [21]4 years ago

It is impossible for a dt-graph to have a vertical line. This would mean that you are at many places at one point in time. It simply can't be done, because we can't teleport lol. You can, however, have a line that is REALLY steep. This would mean that you're travelling really fast. (Covering large amounts of distances in short spans of time) Hope this helped!

Use the accompanying seismogram to answer which of the three types of seismic waves reached the seismograph first.
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

Primary waves (P-waves)

Explanation:

Due to excess of the energy inside the earth when the tectonic plates begin to slide or fracture then the energy is released in the form of seismic waves, this causes the earthquake.

<u>Two types of seismic waves are generally responsible for the earth quakes:</u>

  1. body waves
  2. surface waves

Body waves are of two types:

Primary waves (P-waves)

These are the fastest of all the waves involved in the earth-quake which travel at a speed of 1.6 km to 8 km per second.

They can pass trough solids, liquids and gases. They arrive at the surface as an instant thud.

Secondary waves (S-waves)

They can only pass through the solids and they move slower than the P-waves.

As S-waves move, they displace the rock particles, pushing them outwards perpendicular to the wave-path that leads to the earthquake-related first rolling period.

Surface waves (L-waves/ long waves)

  • These waves move along the surface of the earth. They are responsible for the earthquake's carnage.
  • They move up and down the Earth's surface, rocking the foundations of man-made structures.
  • Surface waves are slowest of the three waves, which means that they are the last to arrive. So at the end of an earthquake usually comes the most powerful shaking.

Calculate using coulombs: an object has 6 protons and 8 electrons. Calculate the magnitude of the charge of the objects. Thank y
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

-3.2 ×1.6 ×10^-19C

Explanation:

Number of proton = 6

Number of electron = 8

To determine the quantity of the charge, we would first find the difference between the number of

protons and electrons. Then multiply the difference by charge 1.6 x 10 -19 C to determine the charge on the object.

Difference between proton and electron is elementary charge

Elementary charge = proton - electron

= 6 - 8

Elementary charge = -2e

Recall, charge (q) = 1.6 ×10^-19C

1e = 1.6 ×10^-19C

Magnitude of the charge of object = -2× (1.6 ×10^-19C)

Magnitude of the charge of object = -3.2 ×1.6 ×10^-19C

Bees can see into the ultraviolet region of the electromagnetic spectrum. Compared with humans, bees can sense electromagnetic w
PIT_PIT [208]
The electromagnetic spectrum spans a variety of radiation types including x-rays all the way through to radio waves. Humans are able to only see in the visible part of the electromagnetic spectrum (390-700nm) but bees can see ultraviolet radiation (10-100nm). Lower wavelength electromagnetic waves have more energy. Hence, compared with humans, bees can sense electromagnetic waves that have more energy.

What impact did Sir Isaac Newton have on modern society?
Novosadov [1.4K]
Sir Isaac Newton laid the foundations for the creation of modern calculus through his work in the field of mathematics. His discovery of formulas that could be used to derive the areas of curved objects led to many of the mathematical breakthroughs of the last two centuries. He also helped in the field of science by discovering laws such as the universal gravitation law.
