_____ waves are Longitudinal waves caused by an earthquake!

Physics

fgiga [73]3 years ago

Answer:

An earthquake generates a series of seismic waves that travel through the interior or near the surface of the Earth. ... They're compressional or longitudinal waves that push and pull the ground in the direction the wave is traveling. They usually cause very little damage.

Compressional waves 

Explanation:

(longitudinal, primary, P-waves of earthquake seismology) are the fastest of all seismic waves. They propagate by compressional and dilatational uniaxial strains in the direction of wave travel through solid, liquid, and gas media.

To solve the problem, it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the kinematic equations of the description of angular movement.

The angular velocity can be described as

\omega_f = \omega_0 + \alpha t

Where,

\omega_f =Final Angular Velocity

\omega_0 =Initial Angular velocity

\alpha = Angular acceleration

t = time

The relation between the tangential acceleration is given as,

a = \alpha r

where,

r = radius.

PART A ) Using our values and replacing at the previous equation we have that

\omega_f = (94rpm)(\frac{2\pi rad}{60s})= 9.8436rad/s

\omega_0 = 63rpm(\frac{2\pi rad}{60s})= 6.5973rad/s

t = 11s

Replacing the previous equation with our values we have,

\omega_f = \omega_0 + \alpha t

9.8436 = 6.5973 + \alpha (11)

\alpha = \frac{9.8436- 6.5973}{11}

\alpha = 0.295rad/s^2

The tangential velocity then would be,

a = \alpha r

a = (0.295)(0.2)

a = 0.059m/s^2

Part B) To find the displacement as a function of angular velocity and angular acceleration regardless of time, we would use the equation

\omega_f^2=\omega_0^2+2\alpha\theta

Replacing with our values and re-arrange to find \theta,

\theta = \frac{\omega_f^2-\omega_0^2}{2\alpha}

\theta = \frac{9.8436^2-6.5973^2}{2*0.295}

\theta = 90.461rad

That is equal in revolution to

\theta = 90.461rad(\frac{1rev}{2\pi rad}) = 14.397rev

The linear displacement of the system is,

x = \theta*(2\pi*r)

x = 14.397*(2\pi*\frac{0.25}{2})

x = 11.3m

8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

The transverse component of acceleration is 26.32 m/s^2 where as radial the component of acceleration is 8.77 m/s^2

Explanation:

As per the given data

u=π/4 rad

ω=u'=2 rad/s

α=u''=4 rad/s

r=e^u

So the transverse component of acceleration are given as

a_{\theta}=(ru''+2r'u')\\

Here

r=e^u\\r=e^{\pi/4}\\r=2.1932 m

r'=e^u.u'\\r'=2.1932 \times 2\\r'=4.3864 m

So

a_{\theta}=(ru''+2r'u')\\a_{\theta}=(2.1932\times 4+2\times 4.3864 \times 2)\\a_{\theta}=26.32 m/s\\

The transverse component of acceleration is 26.32 m/s^2

The radial component is given as

a_r=r''-r\theta'^2

Here

r''=e^u.u'^2+e^u u''\\r''=2.1932 \times (2)^2+2.1932\times 4\\r''=17.5456 m

So

a_r=r''-ru'^2\\a_r=17.5456-2.1932\times (2)^2\\a_r=8.7728 m/s^2

The radial component of acceleration is 8.77 m/s^2

Can you explain that gravity pulls us to the Earth & can you calculate weight from masses on both on Earth and other planets
schepotkina [342]
I don't actually understand what your question is, but I'll dance around the subject
for a while, and hope that you get something out of it.

-- The effect of gravity is:  There's a <em>pair</em> of forces, <em>in both directions</em>, between
every two masses.

-- The strength of the force depends on the <em>product</em> of the masses, so it doesn't matter whether there's a big one and a small one, or whether they're nearly equal. 
It's the product that counts.  Bigger product ==> stronger force, in direct proportion.

-- The strength of the forces also depends on the distance between the objects' centers.  More distance => weaker force.  Actually, (more distance)² ==> weaker force.

-- The forces are <em>equal in both directions</em>.  Your weight on Earth is exactly equal to
the Earth's weight on you.  You can prove that.  Turn your bathroom scale face down
and stand on it.  Now it's measuring the force that attracts the Earth toward you. 
If you put a little mirror down under the numbers, you'll see that it's the same as
the force that attracts you toward the Earth when the scale is right-side-up.

-- When you (or a ball) are up on the roof and step off, the force of gravity that pulls
you (or the ball) toward the Earth causes you (or the ball) to accelerate (fall) toward the Earth. 
Also, the force that attracts the Earth toward you (or the ball) causes the Earth to accelerate (fall) toward you (or the ball).
The forces are equal.  But since the Earth has more mass than you have, you accelerate toward the Earth faster than the Earth accelerates toward you.

--  This works exactly the same for every pair of masses in the universe.  Gravity
is everywhere.  You can't turn it off, and you can't shield anything from it.

-- Sometimes you'll hear about some mysterious way to "defy gravity".  It's not possible to 'defy' gravity, but since we know that it's there, we can work with it.
If we want to move something in the opposite direction from where gravity is pulling it, all we need to do is provide a force in that direction that's stronger than the force of gravity.
I know that sounds complicated, so here are a few examples of how we do it:
-- use arm-muscle force to pick a book UP off the table
-- use leg-muscle force to move your whole body UP the stairs
-- use buoyant force to LIFT a helium balloon or a hot-air balloon 
-- use the force of air resistance to LIFT an airplane.

-- The weight of 1 kilogram of mass on or near the Earth is 9.8 newtons.  (That's
about 2.205 pounds).  The same kilogram of mass has different weights on other planets. Wherever it is, we only know one of the masses ... the kilogram.  In order
to figure out what it weighs there, we need to know the mass of the planet, and
the distance between the kilogram and the center of the planet.

I hope I told you something that you were actually looking for.

Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

1030 mph

Explanation:

The new velocity equals the initial velocity plus the wind velocity.

First, in the x (east) direction:

vₓ = 335 mph + 711 cos 19° mph

vₓ = 1007 mph

And in the y (north) direction:

vᵧ = 0 mph + 711 sin 19° mph

vᵧ = 231 mph

The net speed can be found with Pythagorean theorem:

v² = vₓ² + vᵧ²

v² = (1007 mph)² + (231 mph)²

v ≈ 1030 mph
