Answer:
1) a substance made by mixing other substances together.
2) diverse in character or content.
3) of the same kind; alike.
4) a means of solving a problem or dealing with a difficult situation.
5) a homogeneous noncrystalline substance consisting of large molecules or ultramicroscopic particles of one substance dispersed through a second substance. Colloids include gels, sols, and emulsions; the particles do not settle, and cannot be separated out by ordinary filtering or centrifuging like those in a suspension.
Answer/Explanation: Speed and direction can change with time. When you throw a ball into the air, it leaves your hand at a certain speed. As the ball rises, it slows down. Then, as the ball falls back toward the ground, it speeds up again. When the ball hits the ground, its direction of motion changes and it bounces back up into the air.
Answer:
The earthquake occurred at a distance of 1122 km
Explanation:
Given;
speed of the P wave, v₁ = 8.5 km/s
speed of the S wave, v₂ = 5.5 km/s
The distance traveled by both waves is the same and it is given as;
Δx = v₁t₁ = v₂t₂
let the time taken by the wave with greater speed = t₁
then, the time taken by the wave with smaller speed, t₂ = t₁ + 1.2 min, since it is slower.
v₁t₁ = v₂t₂
v₁t₁ = v₂(t₁ + 1.2 min)
v₁t₁ = v₂(t₁ + 72 s)
v₁t₁ = v₂t₁ + 72v₂
v₁t₁ - v₂t₁ = 72v₂
t₁(v₁ - v₂) = 72v₂
The distance traveled is given by;
Δx = v₁t₁
Δx = (8.5)(132)
Δx = 1122 km
Therefore, the earthquake occurred at a distance of 1122 km
Fluid Friction exists when it is acted upon an object when in fluid.
