Why is it important to know the location of active and inactive faults in our country?

Physics
1 answer:
Andrew [12]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

I hope this helps.

Explanation:

It's important to know the location of an active fault in order to determine the magnitude of the expected earthquake. There is a chance than an inactive fault can become active again. It's important that we take the locations into account in order to be prepared and ready for if it occurs.

Bess [88]

Answer

i'm not 100% sure but 1764

Explanation:

Work done = gravitational potential energy

Gravitational potential energy = mass(kg) × height(m) × gravitational field strength(N/kg)

We can assume that the student is on earth so the gravitational field strength is 9.8N/kg

So work done = 60 × 3×9.8

=1764

(if you need help calculating power but if you do just divide your answer by 12 and you will get 147)

Copper and aluminum are being considered for a high-voltage transmission line that must carry a current of 60.7 A. The resistanc
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

a) The magnitude JJ of the current density for a copper cable is 5.91 × 10⁵A.m⁻²

b)The mass per unit length \lambdaλ for a copper cable is 0.757kg/m

c)The magnitude J of the current density for an aluminum cable is 3.5 × 10⁵A/m²

d)The mass per unit length \lambdaλ for an aluminum cable is 0.380kg/m

Explanation:

The expression for electric field of conductor is,

E =  \frac{V}{L}

The general equation of voltage is,

V = iR

The expression for current density in term of electric field is,

J = \frac{E}{p}

Substitute (V/L)  for E in the above equation of current density.

J = \frac{V}{pL} ------(1)

Substitute iR for V in equation (1)

J = \frac{iR}{pL} ------(2)

Substitute 1.69 × 10⁸ Ω .m for p

50A for i

0.200Ω.km⁻¹ for (R/L) in eqn (2)

J = \frac{(50) (0.200\times 10^-^3) }{1.69 \times 10^-^8 } \\\\= 5.91 \times 10^5A.m^-^2

The magnitude JJ of the current density for a copper cable is 5.91 × 10⁵A.m⁻²

b) The expression for resistivity of the conductor is,

p = \frac{RA}{L}

A = \frac{pL}{R}

The expression for mass density of copper is,

m = dV

where, V is the density of the copper.

Substitute AL for V in equation of the mass density of copper.

m=d(AL)

m/L = dA

λ is use for (m/L)

substitute,

pL/R for A  and λ is use for (m/L) in the eqn above

\lambda = d\frac{p}{\frac{R}{L} } ------(3)

Substitute 0.200Ω.km⁻¹ for (R/L)

8960kgm⁻³  for d and 1.69 × 10⁸ Ω .m

\lambda = (8960) \frac{(1.69 \times 10^-^8 }{0.200\times 10^-^3} \\\\= 0.757kg.m^-^1

c) Using the equation (2) current density for aluminum cable is,

J = \frac{iR}{pL}

p is the resistivity of the aluminum cable.

Substitute 2.82 × 10⁻⁸Ω.m for p ,

50A for i and 0.200Ω.km⁻¹ for (R/L)

J = \frac{(50)(0.200\times10^-^3) }{2.89\times 10^-^8} \\\\= 3.5 \times10^5A/m^2

The magnitude J of the current density for an aluminum cable is 3.5 × 10⁵A/m²

d) Using the equation (3) mass per unit length for aluminum cable is,

\lambda = d\frac{p}{\frac{R}{L} }

p is the resistivity and is the density of the aluminum cable.

Substitute 0.200Ω.km⁻¹ for (R/L), 2700 for d and 2.82 × 10⁻⁸Ω.m for p

\lambda = (2700) \frac{(2.82 \times 10^-^8) }{(0.200 \times 10^-^3) } \\\\= 0.380kg/m

The mass per unit length \lambdaλ for an aluminum cable is 0.380kg/m

What characteristic of a planet determines the acceleration due to gravity on it?
Korvikt [17]
The mass of a planet determines the acceleration due to gravity on it. This is according to Newton's Law of Gravitation, which basically states that the more mass a body has, the greater the force of attraction it exerts on other bodies with mass near it.

The gravitational force is:

F = GMm/r², where G is a constant, r is the distance between large mass M and small mass m.

Considering the fact that acceleration is force per unit mass, if we divide gravitational force by the small mass (to get force per unit mass), we see the dependence mathematically:

a = GM/r²
