Answer:

An earthquake is a trembling movement of the earth's crust. These tremors are generally caused by shifts of the plates that make up the earth's surface. ... A tsunami (pronounced soo-NAHM-ee) is a series of huge waves that occur as the result of a violent underwater disturbance, such as an earthquake or volcanic eruption.

Fofino [41]

Explanation:

It is a branch of astronomy wherein measurements of the positions and movements of celestial bodies are precisely are made.  

For the measurement, minute wobbling of the position of the body is detected. When the shift is detected periodically, the astronomers  come to know that the star is orbited by a planet.  

Also, basic data about the properties of the stars can be collected using this method.

A parallel-plate capacitor is connected to a battery. What happens to the stored energy if the plate separation is doubled while
zlopas [31]

Answer:

new energy of the capacitor is half that of initial energy

Explanation:

As we know that the energy stored in the capacitor is given as

U = \frac{1}{2}CV^2

here we know that capacitance of parallel plate capacitor is given as

C = \frac{\epsilon_0 A}{d}

V = voltage of battery

so now we have capacitor remains connected to the same battery and the separation between the plates is doubled

so we have

C' = \frac{\epsilon_0 A}{2d}

so now the energy stored between the plates is

U = \frac{1}{2}(\frac{C}{2})V^2

so new energy of the capacitor is half
