How tall is the building?
u need to divide the height by 1.6 to get your answer
After the great 1906 San Francisco earthquake, geolophysicistHarry Fielding Reid examined the displacement of the ground surface along the San Andreas Fault. He concluded that the quake must have been the result of the elastic reboundof the strain energy in the rocks on either side of the fault.
strain energy is 0. 5x force x (compression) X (compression)
There is a lot of force and a bit of compression when rocks squash up against other rocks causing earthquakes
Answer:
6.21 m/s
Explanation:
Using work energy equation then

where d is displacement from initial to final position, v is velocity and subscripts a and b are position A and B respectively, m is mass of collar, g is acceleration due to gravity
Substituting 1 Kg for m, 0.4m for h,
as 0, 9.81 for g then

Measure a whole stack (one in which you know the number of sheets), then divide your measurement by the number of sheets in that stack
