<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

<em>S waves are known as secondary wave or shear waves</em>

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <em><u>Seismic wave are types of waves that result from break down of rocks within the earth or an explosion</u></em>. Seismic waves are classified as body waves and surface waves.
  • <em><u>Body waves are classified into either secondary waves or primary waves</u></em>. Commonly known as the<em><u> S-waves and the P-waves.</u></em>
  • <em><u>Secondary waves are types of body waves that move through an object's body unlike th</u></em>e case of surface waves. It is the second wave that is felt after an earthquake.

g You drop a 3.6-kg ball from a height of 3.5 m above one end of a uniform bar that pivots at its center. The bar has mass 9.9 k
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

h = 3.5 m

Explanation:

First, we will calculate the final speed of the ball when it collides with a seesaw. Using the third equation of motion:

2gh = v_f^2 - v_i^2\\

where,

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

h = height = 3.5 m

vf = final speed = ?

vi = initial speed = 0 m/s

Therefore,

(2)(9.81\ m/s^2)(3.5\ m) = v_f^2 - (0\ m/s)^2\\v_f = \sqrt{68.67\ m^2/s^2}\\v_f = 8.3\ m/s

Now, we will apply the law of conservation of momentum:

m_1v_1 = m_2v_2

where,

m₁ = mass of colliding ball = 3.6 kg

m₂ = mass of ball on the other end = 3.6 kg

v₁ = vf = final velocity of ball while collision = 8.3 m/s

v₂ = vi = initial velocity of other end ball = ?

Therefore,

(3.6\ kg)(8.3\ m/s)=(3.6\ kg)(v_i)\\v_i = 8.3\ m/s

Now, we again use the third equation of motion for the upward motion of the ball:

2gh = v_f^2 - v_i^2\\

where,

g = acceleration due to gravity = -9.81 m/s² (negative for upward motion)

h = height = ?

vf = final speed = 0 m/s

vi = initial speed = 8.3 m/s

Therefore,

(2)(9.81\ m/s^2)h = (0\ m/s)^2-(8.3\ m/s)^2\\

<u>h = 3.5 m</u>

The current theory of the structure of the
Mariana [72]

Answers:

a) 2.82(10)^{21} kg

b) 1410 J

c) 36.62 m/s

Explanation:

<h3>a) Mass of the continent</h3>

Density \rho  is defined as a relation between mass m and volume V:

\rho=\frac{m}{V} (1)

Where:

\rho=2720 kg/m^{3} is the average density of the continent

m is the mass of the continent

V is the volume of the continent, which can be estimated is we assume it as a a slab of rock 5300 km on a side and 37 km deep:

V=(length)(width)(depth)=(5300 km)(5300 km)(37 km)=1,030,330,000 km^{3} \frac{(1000 m)^{3}}{1 km^{3}}=1.03933(10)^{18} m^{3}

Finding the mass:

m=\rho V (2)

m=(2720 kg/m^{3})(1.03933(10)^{18} m^{3}) (3)

m=2.82(10)^{21} kg (4) This is the mass of the continent

<h3>b) Kinetic energy of the continent</h3>

Kinetic energy K is given by the following equation:

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^{2} (5)

Where:

m=2.82(10)^{21} kg is the mass of the continent

v=4.8 \frac{cm}{year} \frac{1 m}{100 cm} \frac{1 year}{365 days} \frac{1 day}{24 hours} \frac{1 hour}{3600 s}=1(10)^{-9} m/s is the velocity of the continent

K=\frac{1}{2}(2.82(10)^{21} kg)(1(10)^{-9} m/s)^{2} (6)

K=1410 J (7) This is the kinetic energy of the continent

<h3>c) Speed of the jogger</h3>

If we have a jogger with mass m=77 kg and the same kinetic energy as that of the continent 1413 J, we can find its velocity by isolating v from (5):

v=\sqrt{\frac{2 K}{m}} (6)

v=\sqrt{\frac{2 (1413 J)}{77 kg}}

Finally:

v=36.62 m/s This is the speed of the jogger

A 12-pack of Omni-Cola (mass 4.30 kg) is initially at rest ona horizontal floor. It is then pushed in a straight line for1.20 m
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

a)  W = 46.8 J  and b)   v = 3.84 m/s

Explanation:

The energy work theorem states that the work done on the system is equal to the variation of the kinetic energy

    W = ΔK = k_{f} -K₀

a) work is the scalar product of force by distance

    W = F . d

Bold indicates vectors. In this case the dog applies a force in the direction of the displacement, so the angle between the force and the displacement is zero, therefore, the scalar product is reduced to the ordinary product.

    W = F d cos θ

    W = 39.0 1.20 cos 0

    W = 46.8 J

b) zero initial kinetic language because the package is stopped

    W -W_{fr} = k_{f} -K₀

    W - fr d= ½ m v² - 0

    W - μ N d = ½ m v

   on the horizontal surface using Newton's second law

     N-W = 0

     N = W = mg

 

     W - μ mg d = ½ m v

    v² = (W -μ mg d) 2/m  

    v = √(W -μ mg d) 2/m

    v = √[(46.8 -  0.30 4.30 9.8 1.20) 2/4.3 ]

    v = √(31.63 2/4.3)

    v = 3.84 m/s
