Which of the following sequences correctly lists the different in earthquake waves

Physics
1 answer:
gregori [183]2 years ago

The sequence that correctly lists earthquake waves from strongest to weakest is : ( C ) P waves -- S waves-- Surface waves

<h3 /><h3>Types of earthquake waves </h3>

P waves are the strongest waves because they move more rapidly inside the incompressible earth core sending its energy at a hazardous rate, while the S waves are slower and produces vertical movement of the earth surface.

The weakest waves are the S waves which sweeps across the outer surface of the earth and they are also the slowest of all the waves.

Hence we can conclude that the sequence that correctly lists earthquake waves from strongest to weakest is P waves -- S waves-- Surface waves

A 620 kg moose is standing in the middle of a train track. A 10,000 kg train moving at 10 m/s is unable to stop and the moose en
ddd [48]

Answer:

This is an example of Inelastic colission

Explanation:

Step one:

given:

mass of moose m1 = 620 kg

mass of train m2= 10,000kg

Initial velocity of moose  u1= 0 m/s

Initial velocity of train v1 = 10m/s

combined velocity of the system is given as v

Applying the conservation of momentum equation we have

m1u1+ m2u1= (m1+m2)V

substitutting we have

620*0+10000*10= (620+10000)V

100000= 10620V

divide both sides by 10620

V = 100000/10620

V=9.41m/s

The velocity of the moose after impact is 9.41m/s

A bicyclist passing through a city accelerates after he passes the sign post marking the city limits at x=0. His acceleration is
Anni [7]

Answer:

A. 24 m, 14 m/s

B. 8.0 m

Explanation:

Given:

x₀ = 6.0 m

v₀ = 4.0 m/s

a = 5.0 m/s²

t = 2.0 s

A. Find: x and v

x = x₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

x = (6.0 m) + (4.0 m/s) (2.0 s) + ½ (5.0 m/s²) (2.0 m/s)²

x = 24 m

v = at + v₀

v = (5.0 m/s²) (2.0 s) + (4.0 m/s)

v = 14 m/s

B. Find x when v = 6.0 m/s.

v² = v₀² + 2a (x − x₀)

(6.0 m/s)² = (4.0 m/s)² + 2 (5.0 m/s²) (x − 6.0 m)

x = 8.0 m

which jar contains a mixture? a jar of solid carbon a jar of carbon dioxide gas a jar of liquid copper a jar of copper and water
marysya [2.9K]
Solid carbon is an element in its solid state, not a mixture.
Carbon-dioxide gas is a compound in its gaseous state, not a mixture.
Liquid copper is an element in its liquid state, not a compound.
Copper will never dissolve in water, so copper in water is a mixture.

3. Which types of light are not absorbed by genetic material?
Radda [10]

Given what we know, we can confirm that genetic material is not known to absorb light originating from an infrared or microwave radio source.

<h3>What light does genetic material absorb?</h3>
  • Genetic material is known to absorb UV light.
  • This represents ultraviolet light.
  • UV light is electromagnetic radiation, and the primary source of UV light that we are exposed to is the sun.

Therefore, given that the only form of light listed that genetic material is known to absorb is that of Ultraviolet or UV light, we can confirm that the answer to the question proposed is infrared and microwave radio light.
