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.

The magnitude of e.m.f induced in the loop when t = 2 s is 31 Volts.

<h3>emf induced in the loop</h3>

The magnitude of e.m.f induced in the loop is calculated as follows;

emf = dФ/dt

Ф = 6t² + 7t

dФ/dt = 12t + 7

at t = 2 seconds

emf = dФ/dt = 12(2) + 7 = 31 V

Thus, the magnitude of e.m.f induced in the loop when t = 2 s is 31 Volts.

A pitcher throws a baseball that reaches the catcher in 0.75 s. The ball curves because it is spinning at an average angular vel

7nadin3 [17]

The change in angular displacement as a function of time is the definition given for angular velocity, this is mathematically described as

$\omega = \frac{\theta}{t}$

Here,

$\theta$ = Angular displacement

t = time

The angular velocity is given as

$\omega = 230rev/min$

PART A) The angular velocity in SI Units will be,

$\omega = 230rev/min (\frac{1min}{60s})(\frac{2\pi rad}{1rev})$

$\omega = \frac{23}{3}\pi rad/s \approx 24.08rad/s$

PART B) From our first equation we can rearrange to find the angular displacement then

$\theta = \omega t$

Replacing,

$\theta = (24.08)(0.75)$

$\theta = 18.06 rad$

So, RCF, or relative centrifugal force should be equal to RCF = <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=11%2C18%2Ar%2A%28RPM%2F1000%29

zysi [14]

After plugging all the data into the equation, the result of the relative centrifugal force (RCF) is measured in terms of g.

<h3>What is relative centrifugal force?</h3>

The relative centrifugal force (RCF) or the g force is the radial force generated by the spinning rotor as expressed relative to the earth's gravitational force.

RCF = ac/g

where;

ac is centripetal acceleration
g is acceleration due to gravity

$RCF = \frac{\omega ^2 r}{g} = 1.118\times 10^{-5} \ (RPM)^2 r = 11.18r\ (RPM/1000)^2$

where;

r is radius in cm

<h3>For example, </h3>

Find the maximum RCF of the JS-4.2 rotor can be obtained from its maximum speed (4200 rpm) and its rmax (250 mm);

$RCF = 11.18 \times 25\ cm \times (\frac{4200 \ RPM}{1000} )^2 = 4,930.3 \times g$

Thus, after plugging all the data into the equation, the result is measured in terms of g.
