wink is the seismic station closest to the earthquake. describe two evidences from the seismogram that demonstrates this?

Physics

Well, we don't know if it's the CLOSEST one, but it's closer than the other ones on this print-out.

There are actually three clues to this in the seismograms:

1). The waves from the tremor reach the Wink station first ... the P wave gets there 50 seconds before Chicago and 3 whole minutes before Tampa.

2). They are stronger (greater amplitude) at Wink than at Chicago or Tampa.

3). The delay between the P wave and the S wave is the smallest at Wink. This delay between the two waves grows as the detector is farther from the quake.

Why do conductors transfer heat faster than insulators?
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

Conduction is usually faster in certain solids and liquids than in gases. Materials that are good conductors of thermal energy are called thermal conductors. Metals are especially good thermal conductors because they have freely moving electrons that can transfer thermal energy quickly and easily.

Heat transfer by convection happens through the air, and there are millions of minuscule air spaces between the fibers. Heat transfer by radiation is also slow since one fiber must radiate its heat to another.

When we give heat then kinetic energy is increase and this heat is transferred from hot metal to cold metal through this free electrons. As in insulator the free electrons are negligible so that the heat is not transferred from hot junction to cold junction due to absence of this free electrons.

An ideal parallel plate capacitor remains attached to a battery while the plates are moved closer together. during this process,
xz_007 [3.2K]

During this process, the magnitude of the electric field between the plates increases. For parallel conducting plates, V and E follow the formula E = V/d. The magnitude of ΔV = VAB. The following formula must be used to shift a charge from plate A with a greater potential to plate B with a lower potential: -ΔV = VA - VB = VAB.

Electric filed = V/d, move closed hence d is decreased and hence electric field will increase.

<h3>What is Electric potential?</h3>

The majority of the time, the electric field has an attribute called electric potential. Whether or whether a charge should be applied to the electric field is independent of reality.  All locations with a distance of r from point charge +q consistently have a comparable potential.
