BaLLatris [955]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

48 degress

Explanation:

An earthquake causes many different intensities of shaking in the area of the epicenter where it occurs. So the intensity of an earthquake will vary depending on where you are. Sometimes earthquakes are referred to by the maximum intensity they produce. In the United States, we use the Modified Mercalli Scale. Earthquake intensity is a ranking based on the observed effects of an earthquake in each particular place. Therefore, each earthquake produces a range of intensity values, ranging from highest in the epicenter area to zero at a distance from the epicenter.

Which graph shows the relationship between temperature, X, and kinetic energy, Y?
strojnjashka [21]
Answer: see the graph attached (straight line, passing through the origin and positive slope).


Justification:

1) Kinetic energy and temperature are in direct proportion. That means:

i)  Being kinetic energy y and temperature x: y α x

ii) That implies: y = kx,where k is the constant of proportionality.

iii) The graph is a line that passes through the origin and has positive slope k (k = y / x).

2) The proportional relationship between kinetic energy (KE) and temperature (T) is shown by the Boltzman law, which states:

Average KE = [3 / 2] KT, where K is Boltzman's constant, whose graph is of the form shown in the figure attached.

dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

Please find the answer in the explanation

Explanation:

When you calculate the SLOPE of a line segment, what does the SLOPE represent? (Choose all that apply) the Distance traveled the Displacement the Velocity the Acceleration None of the above

The slope of any time graph can not give you distance or displacement except for position - time graph.

When you plot either distance or displacement against time, that is, distance time graph or displacement time graph, you can get speed or velocity as the slope of the line segment.

You can only acceleration as a slope in a line of best fit if velocity is plotted against time. That is, in a velocity time graph.

What is the mass of an object that experiences a gravitational force of 510 N near Earth's surface?
sineoko [7]

Answer:The mass of an object is 52 kg.

Explanation:

Gravitational force on the object ,F=510 N

Acceleration due to gravity = g = 9.8 m/s^2

Mass of the object = m

Force = mass × acceleration

510 N=m\times 9.8 m/s^2

m=52.04 kg\approx 52 kg

The mass of an object is 52 kg.
