To measure the strength of an earthquake, you can use either a Richter scale or Mercalli scale. Richter scale uses the amplitued of the wave and the distance from the source. Mercalli scale uses observations of people and is not considered to be scientific as Richter scale.
Answer:
Apparent depth = 45 cm
Explanation:
The refractive index of water in a pool, n = 4/3
Real depth, d = 60 cm
We need to find its apparent depth when viewed vertically through air. The ratio of real depth to the apparent depth is equal to the refractive index of the material. Let the apparent depth is d'. So,

So, the apparent depth is 45 cm.
Answer:
vB = 15.4 m/s
Explanation:
Principle of conservation of energy:
Because there is no friction the mechanical energy is conserve
ΔE = 0
ΔE : mechanical energy change (J)
K : Kinetic energy (J)
U: Potential energy (J)
K = (1/2)mv²
U = m*g*h
Where :
m: mass (kg)
v : speed (m/s)
h : hight (m)
Ef - Ei = 0
(K+U)final - (K+U)initial =0
(K+U)final = (K+U)initial
((1/2)mv²+m*g*h)final = ((1/2)mv²+m*g*h)initial , We divided by m both sides of the equation:
((1/2)vB² + g*hB = (1/2 )vA²+ g*hA
(1/2) (vB)² + (9.8)*(14.7) = 0 + (9.8)(26.8 )
(1/2) (vB)² = (9.8)(26.8 ) - (9.8)*(14.7)
(vB)² = (2)(9.8)(26.8 - 14.7)
(vB)² = 237.16

vB = 15.4 m/s : speed of the cart at B
Answer:
a) 4.485 kg b) 3.94 kg
Explanation:
since the maximum tension the line can stand is 44 N and for question a the speed is constant (acceleration must be zero since the velocity or speed is not changing), F(tension) = mass * acceleration due to gravity (g) .
44 = m * 9.81m/s^2
m = 44/9.81 = 4.485kg
b) F(tension) = ma + mg ( where a is the acceleration of the body and g is the acceleration of the gravity)
44 = m (a +g)
44 = m (1.37 + 9.81)
44/11.18 = m
m = 3.94 kg
