Seismometers Choose one: A. measure vertical (up-and-down) ground motion but cannot measure horizontal (back-and-forth) motion.

B. are only sensitive enough to record ground movements down to about 1 mm. C. can "feel" (or record) large earthquakes that happen on the opposite side of the world. D. begin recording when the ground shakes and surface waves arrive.

Answer: C) Can "feel" (or record) large earthquakes that happen on the opposite side of the world

Explanation:

If a seismogram has recorded P-waves and surface waves, but not S-waves, the seismograph may have been on the other side of the planet from the earthquake. Therefore seismometers can feel large earthquakes from the other side of the world

Calculate the magnitude of the gravitational force exerted by the Moon on a 79 kg human standing on the surface of the Moon. (Th
Luden [163]

Answer:

F= 134.92 N

Explanation:

Given that

The mass of the moon ,M = 7.4 x 10²² kg

The mass of the man ,m = 79 kg

The radius ,R= 1.7 x 10⁶ m

The force exerted by moon is given as

F=G\dfrac{Mm}{R^2}

Now by putting the values in the above equation we get

F=6.67\times 10^{-11}\times \dfrac{79\times 7.4\times 10^{22}}{(1.7\times 10^6)^2}\ N\\F=134.92 N

Therefore the force will be 134.92 N.

F= 134.92 N

A 2.5g copper penny is given a charge of -4.0*10^-9c. how mny excess electrons are on the penny?
Lyrx [107]

Answer : The excess of electrons on the penny are, 2.5\times 10^{10} electrons

Solution : Given,

Total charge = -4.0\times 10^{-9}C

Charge on electron = -1.6\times 10^{-19}C

Formula used :

\text{Excess of electrons}=\frac{\text{Total charge}}{\text{Charge of electron}}

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get the excess of electrons present on the penny.

\text{Excess of electrons}=\frac{\text{Total charge}}{\text{Charge of electron}}=\frac{-4.0\times 10^{-9}C}{-1.6\times 10^{-19}C/e^-}=2.5\times 10^{10}e^-

Therefore, the excess of electrons on the penny are, 2.5\times 10^{10} electrons
