<h3>Answer;</h3>

S waves are known as secondary wave or shear waves

<h3>Explanation;</h3>

Seismic wave are types of waves that result from break down of rocks within the earth or an explosion. Seismic waves are classified as body waves and surface waves.
Body waves are classified into either secondary waves or primary waves. Commonly known as the S-waves and the P-waves.
Secondary waves are types of body waves that move through an object's body unlike the case of surface waves. It is the second wave that is felt after an earthquake.

The resistivity of a metal increases slightly with increased temperature. This can be expressed as rho= rho0[1+α(T−T0)] , where

Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

At 81. 52 Deg C its resistance will be 0.31 Ω.

Explanation:

The resistance of wire = $R_T =\frac{\rho_T \ l}{A}$

Where $R_T$ =Resistance of wire at Temperature T

$\rho_T$ = Resistivity at temperature T $=\rho_0 \ [1 \ + \alpha\ (T-T_0\ )]$

Where $T_0 =20\ Deg\ C , \ \rho_0 = Constant, \alpha =3.9 \times 10^-^3 DegC^-1 \ (Given)$

l=Length of the wire

& A = Area of cross section of wire

For long and thin wire the resistance & resistivity relation will be as follows

$\frac{R_T_1}{R_T_2}=\frac{\rho_0(1+\alpha \cdot(T_1-2 0 )}{\rho_0(1+\alpha \cdot (T_2 -20 )}$

$\frac{0.25}{0.31}=\frac{1}{[1+\alpha(T-20)]}$

$1.24=1+\alpha (T-20)$

$0.24=\alpha(\ T -20 )$

$Putting\ the\ value\ of \alpha = 3.9 \times 10^-^3 DegC^-1$

T = 81.52 Deg C

The end diastolic volume of a heart is 140 mL Assume that it is a sphere. At end diastole, the intraventricular pressure is 7mmI

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

We know that, V = 140 mL = 0.00014 m3

Assume that it is a sphere. so, we have

V = (4/3) \pir3

r3 = (0.00014 m3) (3) / (4) (3.14)

r = \sqrt[3]{}\sqrt[3]{}3\sqrt{}3.34 x 10-5 m3

r = 1.93 x 10-7 m

(a) The wall tension at end diastole will be given as :

using a formula, we have

T = P r / 2 H

where, P = intraventricular pressure at end diastole = 7 mmHg = 933.2 Pa

H = wall thickness at this time = 0.011 m

then, we get

T = (933.2 Pa) (1.93 x 10-7 m) / 2 (0.011 m)

T = 8.18 x 10-3 N

(b) The wall tension at the end of isovolumetric contraction will be given as :

using a formula, we have

T = P r / 2 H

where, P = intraventricular pressure at end of isovolumetric contraction = 80 mmHg = 10665.7 Pa

H = wall thickness at this time = 0.011 m

then, we get

T = (10665.7 Pa) (1.93 x 10-7 m) / 2 (0.011 m)

T = 9.35 x 10-2 N

(d) The wall stress from A and B which will be given as :

we know that, \sigma = T / w

For part A, we have

\sigmaA = (8.18 x 10-3 N) / (0.011 m)

\sigmaA = 0.743 N/m

For part B, we have

\sigmaB = (9.35 x 10-2 N) / (0.011 m)

\sigmaB = 8.5 N/m

At a particular instant, an electron moves toward the east in a uniform magnetic field that is directed straight downward. the m

alexdok [17]

Answer:

towards the south

Explanation:

When the electron enters the region with magnetic field, it experiences a magnetic force perpendicular to both the directions of the electron's velocity and the magnetic field.

The direction of the force exerted on the electron can be found by using the right-hand rule:

- Index finger: direction of the velocity of the electron --> towards the east

- Middle finger: direction of the magnetic field --> downward

- Thumb: direction of the force on a positive particle --> towards the north

However, the electron is a negatively charged particle, so we must reverse the direction of the force: therefore, the force exerted on the electron is towards the south.

A 650 × 10–4 F capacitor stores 24 × 10–3 of charge. What is the potential difference between the plates?

olasank [31]

Answer:

0.369 V

Explanation:

Given :

Capacitance ( c ) = 650 × 10–4 F

Charge ( q ) = 24 × 10–3 C

We are asked to find potential difference ( v )!

We know:

q = c v

= > v = q / c

Putting values here we get:

= > v = ( 24 × 10–3 ) / ( 650 × 10–4 ) V

= > v = 240 / 650 V

= > v = 24 / 65 V

= > v = 0.369 V

Therefore, potential difference between the plates is 0.369 V
