How can seismographs be used to predict hurricane intensity?

Physics
1 answer:
nikdorinn [45]2 years ago

Answer: The earth is a noisy place. Seismometers, which measure ground movements to detect earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and manmade explosives, are constantly recording smaller vibrations caused by ocean waves, rushing rivers, and industrial activity.

Which particles are heavy and which are light
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

Protons and neutrons are heavy, Electrons are extremely light

Explanation:

Protons and neutrons are heavier than electrons and reside in the nucleus at the center of the atom. Electrons are extremely lightweight and exist in a cloud orbiting the nucleus.

A spherical balloon is made from a material whose mass is 3.30 kg. The thickness of the material is negligible compared to the 1
stellarik [79]

Answer:

563712.04903 Pa

Explanation:

m = Mass of material = 3.3 kg

r = Radius of sphere = 1.25 m

v = Volume of balloon = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3

M = Molar mass of helium = 4.0026\times 10^{-3}\ kg/mol

\rho = Density of surrounding air = 1.19\ kg/m^3

R = Gas constant = 8.314 J/mol K

T = Temperature = 345 K

Weight of balloon + Weight of helium = Weight of air displaced

mg+m_{He}g=\rho vg\\\Rightarrow m_{He}=\rho vg-m\\\Rightarrow m_{He}=1.19\times \frac{4}{3}\pi 1.25^3-3.3\\\Rightarrow m_{He}=6.4356\ kg

Mass of helium is 6.4356 kg

Moles of helium

n=\frac{m}{M}\\\Rightarrow n=\frac{6.4356}{4.0026\times 10^{-3}}\\\Rightarrow n=1607.85489

Ideal gas law

P=\frac{nRT}{v}\\\Rightarrow P=\frac{1607.85489\times 8.314\times 345}{\frac{4}{3}\pi 1.25^3}\\\Rightarrow P=563712.04903\ Pa

The absolute pressure of the Helium gas is 563712.04903 Pa

I would like help with this physics problem
Darina [25.2K]

(a) This is a freefall problem in disguise - when the ball returns to its original position, it will be going at the same speed but in the opposite direction. So the ball's final velocity is the negative of its initial velocity.

Recall that

v_f=v_i+at

We have v_f=-v_i, so that

-2v_i=at\implies-2\left(8\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)=\left(-2\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)t\implies t=8\,\mathrm s

(b) The speed of the ball at the start and at the end of the roll are the same 8 m/s, so the average speed is also 8 m/s.

(c) The ball's average velocity is 0. Average velocity is given by \dfrac{v_i+v_f}2, and we know that v_f=-v_i.

(d) The position of the ball x_f at time t is given by

x_f=x_i+v_it+\dfrac12at^2

Take the starting position to be the origin, x_i=0. Then after 6 seconds,

x_f=\left(8\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)(6\,\mathrm s)+\dfrac12\left(-2\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(6\,\mathrm s)^2=42\,\mathrm m

so the ball is 42 m away from where it started.

We're not asked to say in which direction it's moving at this point, but just out of curiosity we can determine that too:

x_f-x_i=\dfrac{v_i+v_f}2t\implies42\,\mathrm m=\dfrac{8\,\frac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}+v_f}2(6\,\mathrm s)\implies v_f=6\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}

Since the velocity is positive, the ball is still moving up the incline.

6. What is the change in temperature of a metal rod that is 55.0 cm long, decreases length by 0.20 cm, and that has a coefficien
MrMuchimi

Explanation:

We have,

Length of a metal rod is 55 cm or 0.55 m

Change in length is 0.2 cm or 0.002 m

It is required to find the change in temperature of a metal rod. The coefficient of linear expansion is given by :

\alpha =\dfrac{\Delta L}{L_0\Delta T}

\Delta T is the change in temperature

\Delta T =\dfrac{\Delta L}{L_0\alpha }\\\\\Delta T =\dfrac{0.002}{0.55\times 12\times 10^{-6}}\\\\\Delta T= 303.03^{\circ} C

So, the change in temperature is 303.03 degrees Celsius.
