Magnitudes are measured by intensity so a 3.4 earthquake is much less stronger than a 4.5 earthquake it’s very literally when measuring them the higher the number the stronger it is

Please help with this question.
EastWind [94]

Answer:

41.16 Joules

Explanation:

Potential energy at a given instant is a function of mass and height of an object. The formula is

E_p = mgh = 2.80kg\cdot 9.8\frac{m}{s^2}\cdot 1.50m = 41.16 J

Why does magma rise from depth to the surface of the earth?
Viefleur [7K]

Answer

Magma is less dense compared to the surrounding rock.

the overlying rock creates pressure which forces the magma to be directed upward.

Explanation:

at high temperatures the magma is liquid form with the high energy which causes the formation of bonds and the pressure build up creates the increase  channeling of the liquid.as the temperature decreases the magma moves into the surface

20.0 moles, 1840 g, of a nonvolatile solute, C 3H 8O 3 is added to a flask with an unknown amount of water and stirred. The solu
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

0.144 kg of water

Explanation:

From Raoult's law,

Mole fraction of solvent = vapor pressure of solution ÷ vapor pressure of solvent = 423 mmHg ÷ 528.8 mmHg = 0.8

Let the moles of solvent (water) be y

Moles of solute (C3H8O3) = 2 mole

Total moles of solution = moles of solvent + moles of solute = (y + 2) mol

Mole fraction of solvent = moles of solvent/total moles of solution

0.8 = y/(y + 2)

y = 0.8(y + 2)

y = 0.8y + 1.6

y - 0.8y = 1.6

0.2y = 1.6

y = 1.6/0.2 = 8

Moles of solvent (water) = 8 mol

Mass of water = moles of water × MW = 8 mol × 18 g/mol = 144 g = 144/1000 = 0.144 kg
