The distribution of earthquake across the globe provides the primary indicator of boundaries between all tectonic plates. Earthquakes have a definite distribution pattern. There are three major belts in the world which are frequented by earthquakes of varying intensities and these belts are as under the circus pacific belt, mid Atlantic belt and mid continental belt.

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the uploaded image

Answer:

The tension on the shank is  T =8391.6 N

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

       The strain on the strain on the head is \Delta l = 0.1 mm/mm = \frac{0.1}{1000} = 0.1 *10^{-3} m/m

         The contact area is  A = 2.8 mm^2 = 2.8* (\frac{1}{1000} )^2 = 2.8*10^{-6} m^2  

Looking at the first diagram

           At  600 MPa of stress

               The strain is  0.3mm/mm

          At   450 MPa of stress

                 The strain is   0.0015 mm/mm

 To find the stress at  \Delta l we use the interpolation method

            \frac{\sigma_{\Delta l} -  \sigma_{0.0015} }{ \sigma _ {0.3} - \sigma_{0.0015} } = \frac{e_{\Delta l }  - e_{0.0015}}{e_{0.3} - e_{ 0.0015}}

Substituting values

              \frac{\sigma _{\Delta l} - 450}{600 - 450} = \frac{0.1 -0.0015}{0.3 - 0.0015}

            \sigma _{\Delta l} -450 = 49.50

             \sigma _{\Delta l} = 499.50 MPa

Generally the force on each head is mathematically represented as

              F = \sigma_{\Delta l} * A

Substituting values

             F = 499.50*10^{6} * 2.8*10^{-6}

                =1398.6N

Now the tension on the bolt shank is as a result of the force on the 6 head which is mathematically evaluated as

              T = 6 * F

                  = 6* 1398.6

              T =8391.6 N

2. Two long parallel wires each carry a current of 5.0 A directed to the east. The two wires are separated by 8.0 cm. What is th
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

The magnitude of magnetic field at given point = 5.33 × 10^{-5} T

Explanation:

Given :

Current passing through both wires = 5.0 A

Separation between both wires = 8.0 cm

We have to find magnetic field at a point which is 5 cm from any of wires.

From biot savert law,

We know the magnetic field due to long parallel wires.

⇒ B = \frac{\mu_{0}i }{2\pi R}

Where B = magnetic field due to long wires, \mu_{0} = 4\pi \times10^{-7}, R = perpendicular distance from wire to given point

From any one wire R_{1}  = 5 cm, R_{2}  = 3 cm

so we write,

∴ B = B_{1} + B_{2}

 B = \frac{\mu_{0} i}{2\pi R_{1} } +  \frac{\mu_{0} i}{2\pi R_{2} }

 B =\frac{ 4\pi \times10^{-7} \times5}{2\pi } [\frac{1}{0.03} + \frac{1}{0.05} ]

 B = 5.33\times10^{-5}  T

Therefore, the magnitude of magnetic field at given point = 5.33\times10^{-5} T

What is a transverse wave? How do the particles in the medium move in relation to the energy of the wave? Does this wave require
Pani-rosa [81]
A transverse wave is a wave where the particles in the medium move perpendicular (at right angles) to the direction of the source or its propagation (think of a snake slithering through grass) an example of a transverse wave could be a light wave. Light waves for instance don’t need a medium in order to propagate but transverse waves in general do need a medium.

The earth’s orbit around the sun is elliptical. What does this word mean?.
omeli [17]

Answer:

An elliptical orbit is the revolving of one object around another in an oval-shaped path called an ellipse. The planets in the solar system orbit the sun in elliptical orbits. Many satellites orbit the Earth in elliptical orbits as does the moon.
