A CREEP METER employs a weight and a wire to detect horizontal movement.

Explanation:

A creep meter is an apparatus utilized to measure ground above an existing fault line has gradually shifted in a horizontal orientation. A creep meter operates by utilizing a wire extended across a fault line. As the ground shifts in a horizontal orientation, the creep meter measures the difference.

Which of the following is the best example of kinetic energy being transformed into potential energy
poizon [28]

A pendulum is probably the most common showing of this example. As the pendulum swings down, it converts its potential energy (height) into kinetic energy (velocity). At the lowest point the kinetic energy is the highest and the potential is the lowest. At the highest point in its swing the velocity is zero so the kinetic energy is zero and the potential energy is at a maximum (greatest height).

A car moves with a speed of 72 km/h for 15 minutes and then with a speed of 80 km/h for the next 12 minutes. The total distance
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

The total distance covered by the car is 3,810.08 m

Explanation:

Given;

initial speed of the car, u = 72 km/hr = 20 m/s

initial time, t₁ = 15 minutes = 900 s

final speed of the car, v = 80 km/hr = 22.22 m/s

final time, t₂ = 12 minutes = 720 s

The acceleration of the car is given as;

a = \frac{v-u}{t_2 -t_1} \\\\a = \frac{22.22-20}{900-720}\\\\a = 0.0123 \ m/s^2

The total distance covered by the car is given as;

v² = u² + 2as

where;

s is the total distance covered by the car

22.22² = 20² + 2(0.0123)s

22.22²  - 20² = 2(0.0123)s

93.728 = 0.0246s

s = 93.728 / 0.0246

s = 3,810.08 m

Therefore, the total distance covered by the car is 3,810.08 m
