I am not sure if this is the answer you are looking for but a earthquake occurs when the plates shift. 
Hope this helped.

The primary coil of a transformer contains 100 turns; the secondary has 200 turns. The primary coil is connected to a size aa ba
tester [92]

Answer:

3 volts

Explanation:

Number of turns in primary coil = N_{p} = 100

Number of turns in secondary coil = N_{s} = 200

Voltage across primary coil = V_{p} = 1.5 volts

Voltage across secondary coil = V_{s} = ?

In a transformer, the ratio of number of turns of primary to secondary coil is equal to the ratio of the respective voltages i.e.

\frac{N_{p} }{N_{s} } =\frac{V_{p} }{V_{s} }\\

Using the given values, we get:

\frac{100}{200}=\frac{1.5}{V_{s} }\\V_{s}=1.5 \times \frac{200}{100}\\V_{s}=3

Thus, the voltage measure across secondary coil would be 3 volts

Joseph studied whether different materials can block certain electromagnetic waves by testing television reception in different
Sedbober [7]
Joseph's experiment could be improved by using the same antenna at each part of the house during each trial instead of using different antenna. By doing so, he can obtain accurate results how is the signal in different part of the house under the same conditions (despite the location). So, he will see the dependence of the signal on the location. If he uses different antenna, than this antenna can also have influence of the signal.

How do earthquakes affect earths surface?
ivanzaharov [21]
Some of the reasons that can cause can earthquake are volcanic eruptions, the grinding of tectonic plates beneath the earth's crust and violent explosions which can be artificially induced as well. No matter what the reason is, earthquakes affect the environment and earth's surface. Noticeable cracks have formed on the earth's surface after earthquakes. If the tremors are violent, it can result in the destruction of landscapes. The mountains become prone to land sliding. the glacier's become a threat because of fear of avalanches. tsunamis which are earthquakes in the ocean bed can cause heavy flooding which causes water to cross all boundaries and shores and flood entire cities. Earthquakes caused by volcanoes can result in the spewing of so much lava that it may spill everywhere and cool changing the surface of the earth geologically as well as the ash causing aerial pollution.

What do astronomers use in addition to parallax to find the actual distance of stars that are close to Earth?
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

trigonometry (guessing)

Explanation:

ellipse: is the shape of an orbit : looks like an oval

periapsis : shortest distance between something like the moon and the planet its orbiting around like the earth

parallax is triangulation. like how gps works. looking at a star one day and then looking at it again 6 months later, an astronomer can see a difference in the viewing angle for the star. With trigonometry, the different angles yield a distance. This technique works for stars within about 400 light years of earth

https://science.howstuffworks.com/question224.htm

By comparing the intrinsic brightness to the star's apparent brightness we can calculate the distance of stars

1/r^2 rule states that the apparent brightness of a light source is proportional to the square of its distance.Jan 11, 2022

https://www.space.com/30417-parallax.html

alternative distance measurement for stars used by most astronomers is the parsec. A star with a parallax angle of 1 arcsecond has a distance of 1 parsec, or 1 parsec per arcsecond of parallax, which is about 3.26 light years
