Answer:

3. they can travel through solids

4. they move rock at right angles to the direction of wave travel

Explanation:

S waves are called transverse waves they have the ability to move past the solids. They cannot move through the liquids, these waves are perpendicular to the direction of travel.

They are also called longitudinal waves, the ad is second to record on the seismograph as they slowly pass through the rocks. They have a speed of 3.4 to 7.2 km as per the boundary.

From the average distance of one of jupiter's moons to jupiter and its orbital period around jupiter, we can determine:

den301095 [7]

Answer: Jupiter's mass

Explanation:

From Kepler's third law:

$T^2=\frac{4\pi^2}{GM}a^3$

where T is the orbital period of a satellite, a is the average distance of the satellite from the Planet, M is the mass of the planet, G is the gravitational constant.

If the average distance of one of Jupiter's moons to Jupiter and its orbital period around Jupiter is given then mass of the Jupiter can be found:

$\Rightarrow M_J=\frac{4\pi^2}{GT_m^2}a_m^3$
