<span>The three types of seismic waves produced by an earthquake are primary, secondary, and (D.) surface.</span>
Answer: because ν = velocity/λ where ν and λ are the frequency and wavelegth of the wave.
Explanation: In order to explain this problem we have to consider the relationship between frequency and wavelengths which are related by the velocity of the wave as follows ν*λ=v where ν and λ are the frequency and wavelegth of the wave. These parameters have an inverse proportionality.
Then, ν = velocity/λ
Answer:
<u>Question 2</u>
<u>Part (a)</u>
Chlorine: type of compound = chloride
Oxygen: type of compound = oxide
<u>Part (b)</u>
The iron reacts with water and oxygen to form rust.
A water molecule is made up of two hydrogen atoms joined to one oxygen atom: Di-hydrogen oxide.
<u>Question 3</u>
This circuit is in parallel.
The current in a parallel circuit splits into different branches then combines again before it goes back into the supply.
We are told that A₁ = 0.8 A
As the lamps have <u>equal resistance</u>, the current splits equally:
A₂ = 0.4 A
A₃ = 0.4 A
Then combines again:
A₄ = 0.8 A
Answer:
(a) 1.16 s
(b)0.861 Hz
Explanation:
(a) Period : The period of a simple harmonic motion is the time in seconds, required for a object undergoing oscillation to complete one cycle.
From the question,
If 1550 cycles is completed in (30×60) seconds,
1 cycle is completed in x seconds
x = 30×60/1550
x = 1.16 s
Hence the period is 1.16 seconds.
(b) Frequency : This can be defined as the number of cycles that is completed in one seconds, by an oscillating body. The S.I unit of frequency is Hertz (Hz).
Mathematically, Frequency is given as
F = 1/T ........................... Equation 1
Where F = frequency, T = period.
Given: T = 1.16 s.
Substitute into equation 1
F = 1/1.16
F = 0.862 Hz
Hence thee frequency = 0.862 Hz
Answer:
a)
two like charges always repel each other while two unlike charges attract each other. Since the spring stretches by 0.039 m, the charges have the same sign. both charges are positive(+) or Negative (-)
b)
both q1 and q1 are 8.35 × 10⁻⁶ C or -8.35 × 10⁻⁶ C
Explanation:
Given that;
L = 0.26 m
k = 180 N/m
x = 0.039 m
a)
we know that two like charges always repel each other while two unlike charges attract each other. Since the spring stretches by 0.039 m, the charges have the same sign.
b)
Spring force F = kx
F = 180 × 0.039
F = 7.02 N
Now, Electrostatic force F = Keq²/r²
where r = L + x = ( 0.26 + 0.039 )
we know that proportionality constant in electrostatics equations Ke = 9×10⁹ kg⋅m3⋅s−2⋅C−2
so from the equation; F = Keq²/r²
Fr² = Keq²
q = √ ( Fr² / Ke )
we substitute
q = √ ( 7.02 N × ( 0.26 + 0.039 )² / 9×10⁹ )
q = √ ( 7.02 N × ( 0.26 + 0.039 )² / 9×10⁹ )
q = √ (0.627595 / 9×10⁹)
q = √(6.97 × 10⁻¹¹)
q = 8.35 × 10⁻⁶ C
Therefore both q1 and q1 are 8.35 × 10⁻⁶ C or -8.35 × 10⁻⁶ C
