Answer:
<em>Aim at the base of the fire and use short bursts until the fire is out.</em>
<em></em>
Explanation:
Fire extinguishers use CO2 (Carbondioxide) as the extinguishing agent. This is because CO2 is denser than air, and does not support combustion.
Aiming at the base of the fire causes the CO2 to fall on the base of the fire, where the source of the fire is, trapping it, and preventing it from further reacting with air in a combustion reaction. Also, the short burst creates a strong wind that forces the flame to blow out.

The total quantity of electrons that have flowed through a circuit is a
quantity of charge, measured in Coulombs, or in Ampere-seconds.
The <em><u>rate</u></em> of flow of electrons, or more accurately the rate of flow of
the charge on them, is electrical current. Its unit is the Ampere.
1 Ampere is 1 Coulomb of charge per second.
Answer:
19.1 deg
Explanation:
v = speed of the proton = 8 x 10⁶ m/s
B = magnitude of the magnetic field = 1.72 T
q = magnitude of charge on the proton = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C
F = magnitude of magnetic force on the proton = 7.20 x 10⁻¹³ N
θ = Angle between proton's velocity and magnetic field
magnitude of magnetic force on the proton is given as
F = q v B Sinθ
7.20 x 10⁻¹³ = (1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹) (8 x 10⁶) (1.72) Sinθ
Sinθ = 0.327
θ = 19.1 deg
Scientists measure the time between the arrival of an earthquake's __P____ and ___S____ waves to help determine the distance between the recording seismograph and the earthquake epicenter.
Explanation:
P- (compressional) and S- (shear) waves produced in earthquakes travel at different speeds. P waves are faster than S waves and hence will be detected first by a seismograph after an earthquake. The further away a seismograph is from the epicenter of an earthquake, the longer the time difference between the two (2) waves will be.
Using several, at least 3, seismographs located at different geoghraphical locations and detecting earthquakes, geologists can extrapolate the epicenter of an earthquake using the time differences in arrivals of the two waves in each of the seismographs, using the mathematics of triangulation.
