What difficulty will you encounter if you only have data from two recording station?

<span>If you have only two data from two recording stations then you will be having a hard time finding the correct location of the epicenter. This is because triangulation method requires 3 recording station. If you have 2 recording station, the 2 circles will intersect at 2 points giving you 2 locations that could possibly be the epicenter.</span>

Answer:

The seismic data are often recorded using seismograph, that records the arrival of the P and S waves during an earthquake. This seismograph is used to locate the epicenter of an earthquake. During an earthquake, the seismographs placed in the nearby regions records the data regarding these seismic waves, and generates a circle.  

When three seismographs placed at three different locations forms three circles due to an earthquake, it intersect at a common point. This intersecting point is the approximate location of the epicenter. It is a very much efficient and are commonly used.

But when there are only two recording stations, then it becomes difficult to determine the epicenter because two seismographs at two different location can form two circles after recording the data and this two circle will intersect each other at two different point. As a result of which the difficulties will arise in locating the epicenter.

Estimate the constant rate of withdrawal (in m3 /s) from a 1375 ha reservoir in a month of 30 days during which the reservoir le
kap26 [50]

Answer:

Explanation:

1 ha = 10⁴ m²

1375 ha = 1375 x 10⁴ m² = 13.75 x 10⁶ m²

In flow in a month = .5 x 10⁶ x 30 m³ = 15 x 10⁶ m³

Net inflow after all loss = 18.5 - 9.5 - 2.5 cm = 6.5 cm = .065 m

Net inflow in volume = 13.75 x 10⁶ x .065 m³= .89375 x 10⁶ m³

Let Q be the withdrawal in m³

Q - 15 x 10⁶ - .89375 x 10⁶ = 13.75 x 10⁶ x .75 = 10.3125 x 10⁶

Q = 26.20 x 10⁶ m³

rate of withdrawal per second

= 26.20 x 10⁶ / 30 x 24 x 60 x 60

= 26.20 x 10⁶ / 2.592 x 10⁶

= 10.11 m³ / s

Which device converts electrical energy into kinetic energy?
andriy [413]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

<em>Electric motor</em>

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <em><u>Energy</u></em> is the ability to do work. According to the law of conservation of energy,<em><u> energy can not be created nor destroyed but can be changed from one form to another</u></em>.
  • Changing energy from one form to another is done by devices we call <em><u>transducers. These are elements that convert energy from one form to another.</u></em>
  • In this case, electrical motor is an example of a transducer that converts electrical energy to kinetic energy. <em><u>Electrical energy is supplied to a the motor which converts it to rotational energy or mechanical energy then to kinetic energy.</u></em>
