Answer:

In turn, the main factors affecting earthquake shaking intensity are earthquake depth, proximity to the fault, the underlying soil, and building characteristics—particularly height. Let's take a look at the latter two (soil and buildings) and how they interact.

a test tube has a diameter of 3cm . how many turns would a piece of thread of length 90.42 make round test tube​
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

4.8 turns would be made around the tube

Explanation:

You need the circumference of the tube since it's just a lifted circle

2×pi×3=18.85

90.42/18.85=4.79

And round that to 4.8

Which has a total mass of 1612 kg. If she accelerates from rest to a speed of 12.87 m/s in 3.47 s, what is the minimum power req
blondinia [14]

Answer:

76969.29 W

Explanation:

Applying,

P = F×v............. Equation 1

Where P = Power, F = force, v = velocity

But,

F = ma.......... Equation 2

Where m = mass, a = acceleration

Also,

a = (v-u)/t......... Equation 3

Given: u = 0 m/s ( from rest), v = 12.87 m/s, t = 3.47 s

Substitute these values into equation 3

a = (12.87-0)/3.47

a = 3.71 m/s²

Also Given: m = 1612 kg

Substitute into equation 2

F = 1612(3.71)

F = 5980.52 N.

Finally,

Substitute into equation 1

P = 5980.52×12.87

P = 76969.29 W

A coil of 160 turns and area 0.20 m2 is placed with its axis parallel to a magnetic field of initial magnitude 0.40 T. The magne
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

The rate at which power is generated in the coil is 10.24 Watts

Explanation:

Given;

number of turns of the coil, N = 160

area of the coil, A = 0.2 m²

magnitude of the magnetic field, B = 0.4 T

time for field change = 2 s

resistance of the coil, R =  16 Ω

The induced emf in the coil is calculated as;

emf = dΦ/dt

where;

Φ is magnetic flux = BA

emf = N (BA/dt)

emf = 160 (0.4T x 0.2 m²)/dt

emf = 12.8 V/s

The rate power is generated in the coil is calculated as;

P = V²/ R

P = (12.8²) / 16

P = 10.24 Watts

Therefore, the rate at which power is generated in the coil is 10.24 Watts

Pani-rosa [81]
<span>Even though the Sun has a greater mass than Earth, the Moon orbits Earth because it's closer to the Earth than to the Sun. Because of this proximity between the Earth and the Moon, the Earth has a stronger gravitational pull than the Sun does. Furthermore, the Earth's mass is 81 times that of the Moon, and so at this proximity, it is more than able to overpower what pull the Sun exerts on the Moon.</span>
