Earthquakes and volcanoes occur along the edges of the tectonic plates. Scientists have developed a theory that explains how these giant plates move, thereby creating, destroying, and re-forming continents and oceans over long periods of time. This theory is called the theory of plate tectonics.

Answer: plate tectonics

Explanation: plate tectonics move constantly movement in narrow zones along plate boundaries causes earthquakes and plate tectonics come together and create pressure upon the magma deposit underground forcing it up into a volcanic eruption

Find the torque required for the shaft to transmit 40 kW when (a) The shaft speed is 2500 rev/min. (b) The shaft speed is 250 re
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

(a) 152.85 Nm

(b) 1528.5 Nm

Explanation:

According to the formula of power

P = τ ω

ω = 2 π f

(a) f = 2500 rpm = 2500 / 60 = 41.67 rps

So, 40 x 1000 = τ x 2 x 3.14 x 41.67

τ = 152.85 Nm

(b) f = 250 rpm = 250 / 60 = 4.167 rps

So, 40 x 1000 = τ x 2 x 3.14 x 4.167

τ = 1528.5 Nm

If a = 8i + j - 2k and b = 5i - 3j + k show that a) a x b = -5i - 18j - 29k b) b X a = 50 + 18j +29k​
loris [4]

Recall the definition of the cross product with respect to the unit vectors:

i × i = j × j = k × k = 0

i × j = k

j × k = i

k × i = j

and that the product is anticommutative, so that for any two vectors u and v, we have u × v = - (v × u). (This essentially takes care of part (b).)

Now, given a = 8i + j - 2k and b = 5i - 3j + k, we have

a × b = (8i + j - 2k) × (5i - 3j + k)

a × b = 40 (i × i) + 5 (j × i) - 10 (k × i)

… … … … - 24 (i × j) - 3 (j × j) + 6 (k × j)

… … … … + 8 (i × k) + (j × k) - 2 (k × k)

a × b = - 5 (i × j) - 10 (k × i) - 24 (i × j) - 6 (j × k) - 8 (k × i) + (j × k)

a × b = - 5k - 10j - 24k - 6i - 8j + i

a × b = -5i - 18j - 29k

Given that the speed of sound in air is 330m/s ,calculate the frequency of a note which setup a wavelength of 5cm in air.Is this
Pie

Explanation:

v = wavelength x frequency

330 = 5 . 10-² m x f

f = 6600 Hz

the frequency that human can hear is about 20 Hz - 20000 Hz

so human can hear the note.

A sound has a sound level of 30 dB. Its intensity is what multiple of the standard reference level for intensities?
arsen [322]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

1000th multiple of the standard reference level for intensities.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The sound intensity level (β), measured in decibels, of a sound with an intensity of I is defined as follows;

β = 10 log (I / I₀)       --------------------(i)

Where;

I₀ = reference intensity

Given from the question;

β = sound level = 30dB

Substitute this value into equation (i) as follows;

30 = 10 log (I / I₀)

Divide both sides by 3;

3 = log (I / I₀)

Take antilog of both sides;

10^(3) = (I / I₀)

1000 = I / I₀

Solve for I;

I = 1000I₀

Therefore the intensity of the sound is 1000 times the standard reference level for intensities (I₀)
