The tsunami described in the passage produced a very erratic pattern of damage, with some areas seeing very large waves and near

by areas seeing only small waves. Which of the following is a possible explanation?
A. Certain areas saw the wave from the primary source, others only the reflected waves.
B. The superposition of waves from the primary source and reflected waves produced regions of constructive and destructive interference.
C. A tsunami is a standing wave, and certain locations were at nodal positions, others at antinodal positions.

Answer:B. The superposition of waves from the primary source and reflected waves produced regions of constructive and destructive interference.

Explanation: Tsunami is described as several waves originating from a water body mainly an ocean caused by Large scale earth movements taking place under the sea.

Superimposition of wave is the movement of one wave on another,it can be constructive or destructive.

Constructive interference is a wave interference that take place causing the Crest of one wave to align with that of another wave leading to high amplitude.

Destructive interference is a wave interference that take place causing the Trouph of one wave to align with the crest of another wave leading to low amplitude wave.

The crankshaft in a race car goes from rest to 3000 rpm in 2.0 s.
a_sh-v [17]
The equations are analogous to that for linear movement:
acceleration = (final velocity - initial velocity) / time
acceleration = (3000 rpm - 0 rpm) / 2.0 s
a) acceleration = 1500 rpm/s or 25 rp(s^2)
For the displacement
displacement = initial velocity*time + 0.5*acceleration*time^2
displacement = (0)*(2 s) + (0.5)(25 rps^2)*(2 s)^2
b) displacement = 50 revolutions

How much energy (in Joules) is released when 12.0 g of water cools from 20.0 °C to 11.0 °C? This is a grade 10 question from the
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer: - 452.088joule

Explanation:

Given the following :

Mass of water = 12g

Change in temperature(Dt) = (11 - 20)°C = - 9°C

Specific heats capacity of water(c) = 4.186j/g°C

Q = mcDt

Where Q = quantity of heat

Q = 12g × 4.186j/g°C × - 9°C

Q = - 452.088joule
