Answer:

"An earthquake radiates P and S waves in all directions and the interaction of the P and S waves with Earth's surface and shallow structure produces surface waves. Near an earthquake the shaking is large and dominated by shear-waves and short-period surface waves."  please rephrase this in your own words.

Explanation:

Im not sure if this helps but credits to: eqseis.geosc.psu.edu › Notes › waves_and_interior

I believe the answer should be the last option. upon interaction, both objects should have the same charge after the electrons are transferred.

A 600kg car is moving at 5 m/s to the right and elastically collided with a stationary 900 kg car. What is the velocity of the 9
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

\mathrm{v}_{2} \text { velocity after the collision is } 3.3 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}

Explanation:

It says “Momentum before the collision is equal to momentum after the collision.” Elastic Collision formula is applied to calculate the mass or velocity of the elastic bodies.

m_{1} v_{1}=m_{2} v_{2}

\mathrm{m}_{1} \text { and } \mathrm{m}_{2} \text { are masses of the object }

\mathrm{v}_{1} \text { velocity before the collision }

\mathrm{v}_{2} \text { velocity after the collision }

\mathrm{m}_{1}=600 \mathrm{kg}

\mathrm{m}_{2}=900 \mathrm{kg}

\text { Velocity before the collision } v_{1}=5 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}

600 \times 5=900 \times v_{2}

3000=900 \times v_{2}

\mathrm{v}_{2}=\frac{3000}{900}

\mathrm{v}_{2}=3.3 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}

\mathrm{v}_{2} \text { velocity after the collision is } 3.3 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}

A wave is 8 meters long and has a frequency of 3 Hz. Find speed
Olenka [21]

Answer:

The speed is 24 \frac{meter}{s}

Explanation:

A wave is a disturbance that propagates through a certain medium or in a vacuum, with transport of energy but without transport of matter.

The wavelength is the minimum distance between two successive points of the wave that are in the same state of vibration. It is expressed in units of length (m).

Frequency is the number of vibrations that occur in a unit of time. Its unit is s⁻¹ or hertz (Hz).

The speed of propagation is the speed with which the wave propagates in the middle, that is, the magnitude that measures the speed at which the wave disturbance propagates along its displacement. Relate wavelength (λ) and frequency (f) inversely proportionally using the following equation:

v = f * λ.

In this case, λ= 8 meter and f= 3 Hz

Then:

v= 3 Hz* 8 meter

So:

v= 24 \frac{meter}{s}

<u><em>The speed is 24 </em></u>\frac{meter}{s}<u><em></em></u>

If a sound waves frequency is 100Hz. what is its period
agasfer [191]

Period = (1/frequency) .

If frequency is 100 per second, then

     Period = (1) / (100 per second)  =  0.01 second .
