Answer:

d. epicentral distance scale

Explanation:

The depth of focus from the epicenter, called as Focal Depth, is an important parameter in determining the damaging potential of an earthquake. Most of the damaging earthquakes have shallow focus with focal depths less than about 70km. Distance from epicenter to any point of interest is called epicentral distance

Two samples of water are mixed together.

horrorfan [7]

Let the cold water go up x degrees.

Let the hot water go down 100 - x degrees.

The formula for heat exchange is m*c*delta t

Givens

Ice

deltat = x

m = 0.50 kg

c = 4.18

Hot water

deltat = 100 - x

m = 1.5 kg

c = 4.18

Formula

The heat up = heat down

0.50 * c * x = 1.5 * c * (100 - x) Divide both sides by c

Solution

0.50 *x = 1.5*(100 - x) Remove the brackets.

0.5x = 150 - 1.5x Add 1.5x to both sides.

0.5x + 1.5x = 150 - 1.5x + 1.5x Combine like terms

2x = 150 Divide by 2

x = 75

A heat engine accepts 200,000 Btu of heat from a source at 1500 R and rejects 100,000 Btu of heat to a sink at 600 R. Calculate

diamong [38]

To solve the problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the conservation of energy through the heat transferred and the work done, as well as through the calculation of entropy due to heat and temperatra.

By definition we know that the change in entropy is given by

$\Delta S = \frac{Q}{T}$
