It is a seismic wave that effects the surface of the land by causing it to rise and fall like waves in an ocean. Seismic waves can be broken down into a number of different types. Specifically, it is a Raleigh surface wave that behaves much like water waves since it moves the ground up and down as it travels. Seismic waves are produced in earthquakes.
Answer: - 45000 N.s
Explanation: Impulse is equal to the change in momentum
J = Δp
To solve for impulse we calculate the change in momentum
Δp = m ( Δv)
= 1500 kg ( 10 m/s - 40 m/s)
= - 45000 N.s
-- The potential energy of a 12-lb bowling ball up on the shelf
doesn't have anything to do with the temperature of the ball or
the shelf.
-- The potential energy of a jar full of gas does depend on the
temperature of the gas. The warmer it is, the greater its pressure
is, and the more work it can do if you let it out through a little hole
in the jar. If it gets hot enough, it'll have enough potential energy
to blow the jar to smithereens.
All of the above. They all right
The work to stretch a spring from its rest position is
(1/2) (spring constant) (distance of the stretch)²
E = 1/2 k x² .
You said it takes 1700 joules to stretch the spring 3 meters from its rest position, so we can write
1700 joules = 1/2 k (3m)²
1 joule = 1 newton-meter
1700 N-m = 1/2 k (3m)²
Multiply each side by 2: 3400 N-m = k · 9m²
Divide each side by 9m² k = 3400 N-m / 9m²
= (377 and 7/9) newton per meter
