<span>Earthquakes often cause dramatic changes at Earth's surface. In addition to the ground movements, other surface effects include changes in the flow of groundwater, landslides, and mudflows. Earthquakes can do significant damage to buildings, bridges, pipelines, railways, embankments, dams, and other <span>structures</span></span>
Answer:
3.32 m/s
Explanation:
From the law of conservation of energy, the sum of mechanical and kinetic energy should be equal to the 10 J given. Potential energy is given by mgh where m is mass, g is acceleration due to gravity and h is the height. For this case,
and l is string length, given as 2 m, \theta is given as 50 degrees. Kinetic energy is given by
and it is this velocity that is unknown.

Answer:
Option D: 1.5in in front of the target
Explanation:
The object distance is
.
Because the surface is flat, the radius of curvature is infinity .
The incident index is
and the transmitted index is
.
The single interface equation is 
Substituting the quantities given in the problem,

The image distance is then 
Therefore, the coin falls
in front of the target
The following choice that is NOT a way that machines provides a mechanical advantage is to change direction. The correct answer is A.
Answer:
t = 0.28 seconds
Explanation:
Given that,
Force acting on a firework, F = 700 N
The momentum of the firework, p =200 kg-m/s
We need to find the time before it explodes. Ket the time be t. We know that, the rate of change of momentum is equal to external frce. So,

So, the required time is equal to 0.28 seconds.
