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.

A pitcher exerts a force on a baseball that is 30 times the balls weight. How fast is the pitcher accelerating the ball?
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

 Pitcher is accelerating the ball at 30 times of acceleration due to gravity = 294 m/s²

Explanation:

  Force applied on baseball = 30 times weight of the ball.

   Weight of ball = mg, where m is the mass of ball and g is acceleration due to gravity value.

  We have force applied is also equal to product of mass and acceleration.

                            F = ma = 30 x mg

                                 a = 30g

   So, pitcher is accelerating the ball at 30 times of acceleration due to gravity = 294 m/s²

A proton is initially moving west at a speed of 1.10 106 m/s in a uniform magnetic field of magnitude 0.281 T directed verticall
kifflom [539]

Answer:

so here it will move in circle with radius 4.06 cm

Explanation:

As we know that proton is moving towards west while the magnetic field is vertically upwards

So here the force on the proton must be perpendicular to the velocity

So here we have

F = q(\vec v \times \vec B)

so here we have

F = qvB sin90

since force is perpendicular to the velocity so here it must be centripetal force

here we have

\frac{mv^2}{R} = qvB

so we have

R = \frac{mv}{qB}

R = \frac{(1.66 \times 10^{-27})(1.10 \times 10^6)}{(1.6 \times 10^{-19})(0.281)}

R = 4.06 cm

so here it will move in circle with radius 4.06 cm
