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.

Answer:

The amplitude  is  A =  90.2 \ m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The frequency of when sound is approaching observer is   f = 392 Hz

     The frequency as the move away from observer  is  f_ a =  330 \ Hz

    The time between the pitch are t =  10 \ s

Here you are the observer and your friends are the source of the sound

The period is mathematically evaluated as

       T =  2 t

as it is the time to complete one oscillation which from on highest pitch to the next highest pitch

Now T can also be mathematically represented as

          T = \frac{2 \pi}{w}

Where  w is the angular velocity

=>   \frac{2 \pi}{w}  =  2 * 10

=>   w =  0.314 \ rad/sec

Now using Doppler Effect,

   The source of the sound is approaching the observer

The

          f = f_o (\frac{v}{v- wA} )

         392  = f_o (\frac{v}{v- wA} )

Where A is the amplitude

    So when the source is moving away from the observer

         f_a =  f_o (\frac{v}{v+ wA} )  

        330  =  f_o (\frac{v}{v+ wA} )  

Here  f_o is the fundamental frequency

Dividing the both equation  we have

           \frac{392}{330}  =  \frac{f_o(\frac{v}{v-wA} )}{f_o(\frac{v}{v+wA}}

           1.1878  = \frac{v+wA}{v-wA}

         1.1878 v -  1.1878 wA = v+wA

        1.1878 v = 2.1878 wA

=>     A =  \frac{(0.1878 * (330))}{(2.1878)* (0.314)}

         A =  90.2 \ m

Please I need help........
LenKa [72]

Answer:

7.46 J/kg/K

Explanation:

The heat absorbed or lost is:

q = mCΔT

where m is the mass, C is the heat capacity, and ΔT is the change in temperature.

Given q = 15.0 J, m = 0.201 kg, and ΔT = 10.0 °C:

15.0 J = (0.201 kg) C (10.0 °C)

C = 7.46 J/kg/°C

Which is the same as 7.46 J/kg/K.

If you connected 10 of these 12V (10 W) lamps in parallel, to the 12V source, how much current would the source have to supply
Flauer [41]

Answer:

T=8.33A

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Number of battery n=10

Voltage sourceE=12V

Lamp PowerP=10W

Generally the equation for Resistance is mathematically given by

 R=\frac{V^2}{P}

 R=\frac{12^2}{10}

 R=14.4ohms

Therefore

 R_{eq}=\frac{14.4}{10}

 R_{eq}=1.44

Generally the equation for Current is mathematically given by

 T=\ffrac{V}{Req}

 T=\frac{12}{1.44}

 T=8.33A
