The reason for that is that P-waves (primary waves) travel faster than S-waves (secondary waves).
If we call
the speed of the primary waves and
the speed of the secondary waves, and we call
the distance of the seismogram from the epicenter, we can write the time the two waves take to reach the seismogram as
So the lag time between the arrival of the P-waves and of the S-waves is
We see that this lag time is proportional to the distance S, therefore the larger the distance, the greater the lag time.
Answer:
The correct answer is - c. Spaceship will have a velocity to the East and will be slowing down.
Explanation:
In this case, if turned on thruster #2 then it will exert force on the west side as thruster 2 is on the east side and it can be understood by Newton's third law that says each action has the same but opposite reaction.
As the spaceship engine applies force on the east side then according to the law the exhauster gas applies on towards west direction. It will try to decrease the velocity of the spaceship however, the direction of floating still be east side initally.
Answer:
the answer is C
Explanation:
gravity forces down not up or sideways.
Answer:
b
c
e
h
Explanation:
Note that the swing direction was not giving in the question and direction could be sideways (in a turn) or in a track or both
The question show something in common ...acceleration
So let's look at the statements and pick the correct ones
a is false while b is correct as the train is accelerating
c is correct. The train is accelerating even thou the speed could not be ascertained
d is false and not feasible as the train is accelerating
e is true as the train maybe moving at a constant speed in a circle
f is false. This could be constant velocity in a circle. Same as g (false)
h is true. It's accelerating
Answer:
Distance = displacement = 35m
Explanation:
The distance of the student is how far he has gone.
Distance = 25m + 10m
Distance = 35m
Displacement is the distance specified in specific direction. Since the student walk in the sane direction, thence the displacement is also 35m
