Answer:

Frequent shallow earthquakes

Explanation:

Shear is the response of a rock to deformation usually by compressive stress and forms particular textures.

During an earthquake when the earth shakes it produces a super shear earthquake in which the propagation of the rupture along the fault surface occurs at speeds in excess of the seismic shear wave (S-wave) velocity.

The mechanisms of shearing depend on the pressure and temperature of the rock and on the rate of shear which the rock is subjected to.

Answer: Current in a wire

We can use the same right-hand rule as we did for the moving charges—pointer finger in the direction the current is flowing, middle finger in the direction of the magnetic field, and thumb in the direction the wire is pushed.

You wish to buy a motor that will be used to lift a 10-kg bundle of shingles from the ground to the roof of a house. The shingle
gogolik [260]

Answer:

\tau=19.21\ N-m

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of bundle of shingles, m = 10 kg

Upward acceleration of the shingles, a=1.5\ m/s^2

The radius of the motor of the pulley, r = 0.17 m

Let T is the tension acting on the shingles when it is lifted up. It can be calculated as :

T-mg=ma

T=m(g+a)

T=10\times (9.8+1.5)

T = 113 N

Let \tau is the minimum torque that the motor must be able to provide. It is given by :

\tau=r\times T

\tau=0.17\times 113

\tau=19.21\ N-m

So, the minimum value of torque is 19.21 N-m. Hence, this is the required solution.

Two identical cylinders, A and B, contain the same type of gas at the same pressure. Cylinder A has twice as much gas as cylinde
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

D. TA < TB

Explanation:

From general gas equation, we know that:

PV  = nRT

PV/R = nT

where,

P = pressure of gas

V = volume of gas

R = General gas constant

T = temperature of gas

n = no. of moles of gas

<u>FOR CYLINDER A</u>:

PV/R = (nA)(TA)  _____ eqn (1)

<u>FOR CYLINDER B</u>:

PV/R = (nB)(TB)  _____ eqn (2)

Because, Pressure, Volume are constant for both cylinders.

Comparing eqn (1) and (2)

(nA)(TA) = (nB)(TB)

It is given that the amount of gas in cylinder A is twice as much as the gas in cylinder B. This means the number moles in cylinder A are twice as much as no. of moles in cylinder B.

nA = 2(nB)

using this in eqn:

2(nB)(TA) = (nB)(TB)

TA = (1/2)(TB)

<u>TA = 0.5 TB</u>

Therefore it is clear that the correct option is:

<u>D. TA<TB</u>

A 1400.0 kg car crests a 3200.0 m pass in the mountains and briefly comes to rest. The car descends 1000 m before climbing and c
rjkz [21]

Answer:

a) v = 88.54 m/s

b) vf = 26.4 m/s

Explanation:

Given that;

m = 1400.0 kg

a)

by using the energy conservation

loss in potential energy is equal to gain in kinetic energy

mg × ( 3200-2800) = 1/2 ×m×v²

so

1400 × 9.8 × 400 = 0.5 × 1400 × v²

5488000 = 700v²

v² = 5488000 / 700

v² = 7840

v = √7840

v = 88.54 m/s

b)

Work done by all forces is equal to change in KE

W_gravity + W_non - conservative = 1/2×m×(vf² - vi²)

we substitute

1400 × 9.8 × ( 3200-2800) - (5 × 10⁶) = 1/2 × 1400 × (vf²  -0 )

488000 = 700 vf²

vf² = 488000 / 700

vf² = 697.1428

vf = √697.1428

vf = 26.4 m/s
