Answer:

Surface waves, in contrast to body waves can only move along the surface. They arrive after the main P and S waves and are confined to the outer layers of the Earth. They cause the most surface destruction. Earthquake surface waves are divided into two different categories: Love and Rayleigh.

Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

En la zona apótica (profundidad inferior a 200 m); todo lo que queda de la luz solar es una luz tenue, opaca, azul-verde, demasiado impotente para siquiera considerar permitir que ocurra la fotosíntesis. Sin embargo, hay comida para tener; basura, trozos de plantas podridas y derroche de criaturas caen desde arriba para cuidar a los seres vivos en la zona apótica.

Las formas de vida a una profundidad inferior a 200 m dependen de los productos químicos que salen de los respiraderos; el procedimiento que utilizan para hacer los alimentos se llama quimiosíntesis en lugar de fotosíntesis.

In an experiment refractive index of glass was observed to be 1.45,1.56,1.54,1.44,1.54and1.53. Calculate mean value of refractiv
Sever21 [200]
The mean may be calculated by summing the values of the refractive index and dividing the sum by the number of experiments. This is:
Mean = (1.45 + 1.56 + 1.54 + 1.44 + 1.54 + 1.53)/6
Mean = 1.51

The mean absolute error is the sum of the absolute values of errors divided by the number of trials:
MAE = (|1.45-1.51|+|1.56-1.51|+|1.54-1.51|+|1.44-1.51|+|1.54-1.51|+|1.53-1.51|)/6
MAE = 0.043

The fractional error is the MAE divided by the actual value:
Fractional error = 0.043 / 1.51
Fractional error = 43/1510

The percentage error is the fractional error multiplied by 100:
Percentage error = 2.85%

I need help doing this i don’t understand what to do
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

You need to write an essay with 800 to 1,200 words. That talks about the significance of one of the seminal works (Definition- a work that strongly influenced people. Example: Martin Luther King Jr's speech "I Have A Dream") in the unit and how it connects to current issues (Example- Politics). It should be clearly stated and should be well supported by research (Example- a trustworthy article talking about its influence). You should properly cite at least 3 good sources from different perspectives. (Example- a republicans view for one source, a democratic for another, and a neutral for the third) You should also use direct quotes (Example: "Let them eat cake." - Marie Antoinette) and paraphrase- put it in your own words. (Example: Marie Antoinette said that they should eat cake.) I hope this helps, good luck! :)

Two particles collide, one of which was initially moving and the other initially at rest. Is it possible for both particles to b
solmaris [256]

Answer:

Not possible

Explanation:

Unless there's some extra external force to keep both particles at rest after the collision, the momentum must be conserved before and after the collision.

So before the collision, 1 particle is at rest, 1 not ->  total momentum is non-zero

After the collision, both particles are at rest -> total momentum is zero which is different from before.

Therefore this is not possible.

A guy wire 1034 feet long is attached to the top of a tower. When pulled taut, it touches level ground 699 feet from the base of
kolezko [41]

Answer:

80.386 degrees

Explanation:

We use the cosine equation here (which is the adjacent side of the unknown angle divided by the hypotenuse

The adjacent side = 699ft

The hypotenuse = 1034ft

using cos∅ = Adjacent/hypotenuse

where ∅ is the unknown angle

cos ∅ = 699/1034 = 0.167

∅ = arccos 0.167 = 80.368°

As easy as one can imagine
