B. To have an earthquake there must be a fault line (where two or more tectonic plates meet) so if San Fran. has earthquakes they’re on a fault line.
As we know that KE and PE is same at a given position
so we will have as a function of position given as

also the PE is given as function of position as

now it is given that
KE = PE
now we will have




so the position is 0.707 times of amplitude when KE and PE will be same
Part b)
KE of SHO at x = A/3
we can use the formula

now to find the fraction of kinetic energy



now since total energy is sum of KE and PE
so fraction of PE at the same position will be


Most of the energy will be absorbed by the materials that make up the cars, causing them to deform. The energy will also be converted into sound energy, causing a loud bang upon collision. Also, some energy will be converted to thermal energy, which will cause the cars to heat up slightly.
A :-) F = ma
Given - m = 95 kg
a = 2.2 m/s^2
Solution -
F = ma
F = 95 x 2.2
F = 209
.:. The force is 209 N
Here,
Load distance (Ld) = 30 cm
Effort distance (Ed) = 60 cm
Load (L) = 200N
Effort (E) = ?
Now, By using formula,
or, E * Ed = L * Ld
or, E * 60 = 200 * 30
or, E = 6000/60
◆ E = 100N
This is a Right answer...
I hope you understand...
