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.

The earth exerts a force of 500 newtons on an object what is the mass of the object in kg
guajiro [1.7K]

 Weight (that's what the 500 N is) = (mass) x (gravity) .

On Earth, gravity = about 9.8 m/s² , so

                                 500 N = (mass) x (9.8 m/s²) .

Divide each side by 9.8 m/s²: 

                                 Mass = (500 N) / (9.8 m/s²)

                                          =    51 kg  (rounded) .

An opera singer in a convertible sings a note at 600 Hz while cruising down the highway at 90km/hr. What is the frequency heard
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

f=647.17Hz

Explanation:

Given data

Frequency fs=600 Hz

Velocity Vs=90 km/hr =25 m/s

Speed of sound v=343 m/s

To find

Frequency f heard by a person standing beside the road in front of the car

Solution

From Doppler's effect we know that:

f=f_{s}(\frac{v+vL}{v+vs} )\\ as\\vL=0

Here Vs is negative as the source is moving towards listener

f=fs(\frac{v+0}{v-vs} )\\f=(600Hz)(\frac{343m/s+0}{343m/s-25m/s} )\\f=647.17Hz
