Which of the following affects the speed of a seismic wave?

Chemistry
1 answer:
scoray [572]3 years ago
3 0

Explanation:

The speed of seismic waves is affected by the density of the underlying rock.

Seismic waves are elastic waves that transmits elastic energy from one point to the other.

These waves generally produced during an earthquake.

  • The higher the density of rock bodies, the faster the wave travels.
  • Rocks that are well packed with little to no void have a higher seismic velocity.
  • Where density of rock is low, the speed is also low

Dahasolnce [82]
    The  temperature will  be  1200K   if  the volume remained   constant

      calculation
 This is calculated  using   gay lussac  law  formula,  that is P1/ T1=P2/T2  since the   volume is constant
P1 =  100 Kpa
T1=  300 K
P2=  400 Kpa
T2=?

by  making  T2   the subject of the formula  T2 =( P2 xT1)/P1

T2  is therefore = (400 KPa  x 300 K)  / 100 Kpa = 1200 K

You drink part of your bottle of water, leaving 160 g in the bottle. When you purchased the water, it had a temperature of 10oC.
Evgesh-ka [11]

The energy that the water in the  bottle absorbed is obtained as 16800 J.

<h3>What is the specific heat capacity?</h3>

The specific heat capacity of the water refers to the energy that is required to raise the temperature of 1Kg of the water by 1 degree.

Now we have the following;

mass (m) =  160 g

temperature change dT = ( 35oC -  10oC)

specific heat capacity (c)= 4.2 J/(g * oC).

Now;

H = mcdT

H =  160 g * 4.2 J/(g * oC) *  ( 35oC -  10oC)

H = 16800 J
