A road that rises 1 ft for every 100 ft traveled

Physics
1 answer:
Lana71 [14]3 years ago
6 0

Explanation:

6% grade

=> Rises 6 feet for every 100 feet traveled

This would mean that tanx = 6/100.

=> x = tan^-1(6/100) = 3.4°. (1d.p.)

Hence the road is inclined at an angle of 3.4° above the horizontal.

A seismographic station receives S and P waves from an earthquake, separated in time by 17.8 s. Assume the waves have traveled o
Georgia [21]

Answer:

D = 230.2 Km

Explanation:

let distance between seismograph and focus of quake is D

From time distance formula we  can calculate the time taken by the S wave

T_1 =\frac{D}{4.5}

From time distance formula we  can calculate the time taken by the P wave

T_2 =\frac{D}{6.90}

It is given in equation both waves are seperated from each other by 17.8 sec

so we have

T_1 - T_2 = 17.8sec

Putting both time value to get distance value

\frac{D}{4.5} - \frac{D}{6.90} = 17.8

D = 230.2 Km
