All metals are solid at (our) living temperatures except for mercury which is a liquid. Metals are shiny for a while at least when properly finished. Metals are good conductors of both heat and electricity. This is due to the excess electrons in their valence clouds that facilitate energy transfer.What are 5 characteristics of metal?

Metals are lustrous, malleable, ductile, good conductors of heat and electricity

Silver conducts electricity better than any other metal.

Brass is an alloy made from zinc and copper.

Pure gold is too soft for many things so most gold is combined with other metals to make it stronger. ...

World time periods are often listed by the metal used.

the first s-wave reaches a seismic station 22 minutes after an earthquake occurred. how long did it take the first p-wave to rea
Naddik [55]

The time taken for the first p-wave to reach the same seismic station is approximately 13 minutes.

<h3>Time of travel of the P-wave</h3>

In rock, S waves generally travel about 60% the speed of P waves, and the S wave always arrives after the P wave.

<h3>Relationship between speed and time</h3>

v ∝ 1/t

v₁t₁ = v₂t₂

t₁/t₂ = v₂/v₁

t₁/t₂ = 0.6v₁/v₁

t₁/t₂ =  0.6

t₁ = 0.6t₂

t₁ = 0.6 x 22 mins

t₁ = 13.2 mins

Thus, the time taken for the first p-wave to reach the same seismic station is approximately 13 minutes.

An object moves from the position +16m to the position +43m in 12s. What us the total displacement
NeX [460]

First method

initial distance = 16m

final distance= 43 m

total distance covered= final -initial

                                     =43m -16m

                                     =27m

Second method

Si= 16m

Sf =43 m

t= 12 s

first we will find V

V =  (Sf-Si)/ t

V =( 43- 16)/ 12

V = 27/12  ⇒ V= 9/4

V= distance / time

distance= V×time

distance = (9/4) ×12

distance =27

Avery likes to walk 30 feet in 10<br>seconds. What is her speed?​
Sliva [168]

Answer:

If she is walking 30 feet every 10 seconds, that means she is walking 180 feet per minute. Multiply that by the 60 minutes in an hour, means she walks (180x60)= 10,800 feet an hour.

She walks 3 feet a second.

She walks 180 feet a minute.

She walks 10,800 feet an hour.
