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.

A particle moves along a straight line and its position at time t is given by
Alisiya [41]

(A) Use interval notation to indicate the time interval or union of time intervals when the particle is moving forward and backward

the particle is speeding up

<span>if  a(t) >0, it means 12t-48>0, and t >4,  I = ]4, infinity[</span>

the particle is speeding down

<span>if  a(t) < 0, it means 12t-48>0, and t < 4,  I = ] -infinity, 4[</span>

 

when the particle is moving forward and backward

that is depending of the sign of v(t)

moving forward if v(t)> 0

<span>moving backward if v(t)<  0</span>

but v(t) = 6t² - 48 t +90, this quadratic equation has exactly two solutions, t =1, and t =3

<span>so  after taking care the sign of </span>6t² - 48 t +90,

 

<span>v(t)> o when  t is in I = ] –inf, 1[ U ]4, inf[,the particle is moving forward</span>

<span>v(t) < o when  t is in I = ]1, 4[,the particle is moving backward</span>

<span> </span>

Explain why greenhouse gases in the atmosphere cause an increase in temperature?
harkovskaia [24]
Any gas in the atmosphere that absorbs and emits thermal infrared radiation is referred to as a greenhouse gas (GHG). These are the primary causes of the greenhouse effect, which causes the Earth's temperature to rise. Earth is warmer because less heat radiates into space.
