How are ocean waves different from waves experienced in an earthquake?

Answers

Answer 1

When an earthquake occurs, rocks at a fault line slip or break, and two sections of Earth's crust physically move relative to one another. That movement releases energy, and two types of seismic waves radiate outward from the earthquake through Earth's interior and along its surface.

WHEREAS

Ocean waves are created by energy passing through water, causing it to move in a circular motion. ... Wind-driven waves, or surface waves, are created by the friction between wind and surface water. As wind blows across the surface of the ocean or a lake, the continual disturbance creates a wave crest.

In addition to how much force Earth exerts on the object, which features of an object affect its weight?

A.mass and location of the object
B.shape and location of the object
C.location of the object and how much energy the object has
D.mass of the object and how much energy the object has

Answers

Answer/Explanation:

The weight of an object is defined as the force that is exerted due to the gravitational force.

Mathematically, it can be written as :

W = m g

Where

m is the mass of the object

g is the acceleration due to gravity

Also,  

We know that the value of g varies with respect to the location. At the equator, the value of g is less as compared to the poles.

The feature of an object that affects its weight are :

Mass of the object

Location of the object

Calculate the density of an object with a mass of 15.6 grams and a volume of 2 cm3

Answers

Given :

Mass of object, m = 15.6 grams.

Volume of object, V = 2 cm³.

To Find :

The density of the object.

Solution :

We know, density of an object is given by :

[tex]\rho = \dfrac{m}{V}\\\\\rho = \dfrac{15.6}{2}\ grams/cm^3\\\\\rho = 7.8\ grams/cm^3[/tex]

Hence, this is the required solution.

77. Two blocks, with masses m1 = 400 g and m2 = 600 g, are connected by a string and lie on a frictionless tabletop. A force F = 3.5 N is applied to block m2. Find the acceleration of each object.

Answers

Answer:

See the answers below. And the free body diagrams attached.

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we must build a free body diagram, where we show the forces acting on a body, first for the m2 body, where the force of 3.5 [N] acts to the right. In such a way that a reaction force is presented in the opposite direction due to the string tied between both bodies, we will call this force T1.

Now using Newton's second law, which is defined as the sum of forces equal to the product of mass by acceleration, we can determine an equation as a function of T1.

∑F = m*a

[tex]3.5 -T_{1}=0.6*a_{2}[/tex]

We have an equation with two unknowns, in such a way we must perform a second free body diagram for the body with mass m1, to acquire the additional equation.

∑F =m₁*a₁

[tex]T_{1}=0.4*a_{1}[/tex]

By kinematics we know that if the string tied to Body 2 moves a distance, the part of the string at the end tied to body 1 will move the same distance. This same analysis is valid for velocities and accelerations.

This is the accelerations a1 and a2 are equal. Now equalizing both equations.

[tex]3.5-0.4*a_{1}=0.6*a_{2}\\but\\a_{1}=a_{2}\\3.5-0.4*a_{1}=0.6*a_{1}\\a_{1}=3.5[m/s^{2} ][/tex]

The acceleration of each block connected by the given string is 3.5 m/s².

The given parameters;

mass of the first block, m1 = 400 g = 0.4 kgmass of the second block, m2 = 600 g = 0.6 kgapplied force, F = 3.5 N

The net force on the blocks is calculated as follows;

[tex]\Sigma F = ma\\\\F - T = m_2a\\\\F - m_1(a -g)= m_2a\\\\g = 0 \ , \ in \ horizontal \ direction\\\\F - m_1a = m_2 a\\\\F = m_2 a + m_1 a\\\\F = a(m_1 + m_2)\\\\a = \frac{F}{m_1 + m_2} \\\\a = \frac{3.5 }{0.4 + 0.6} \\\\a = 3.5 \ m/s^2[/tex]

Thus, the acceleration of each block connected by the given string is 3.5 m/s².

When an old building is to be torn down, Mr. Pham’s company removes the bricks, cleans off the mortar from the bricks, and then sells the bricks to companies that restore historic buildings. Which compound is Mr. Pham’s company most likely to use in its work?

hydrochloric acid
nitric acid
sodium hydroxide
lithium hydroxide

Answers

Answer:

hydrochloric acid

Explanation:

The compound Mr. Pham's company used is most likely hydrochloric acid.

Hydrochloric acid is a strong acid and it is applied to remove corrosion and rusts from another body.

For industrial purposes, they are used as cleansing agents.

The acid is capable of dissolving and breaking down the rust and corrosion.

A base does not have this property and would not effectively remove the corrosion.

Sodium hydroxide and lithium hydroxide are bases.

Nitric acid is not as strong as hydrochloric acid.

if a 60 kg person was standing on a platform at the surface of saturn and they jumped, they would have to push with a force greater than..?

Answers

Answer:

A 60 kg person standing on a platform at the surface of Saturn and they jumped, they would have to push with a force greater than 540 N

Explanation:

The gravitational attraction between an object on the surface of a planet and the planet is given by the weight of the object

Therefore the force needed to be applied for an object to lift off the surface of a planet = The weight of the object

The weight of the object on the surface of a planet = m × g

Where;

m = The mass of the object

g = The strength of gravity on the planet's surface in N/kg

The given parameters are;

The mass of the person standing on a platform at the surface of Saturn, m = 60 kg

The strength of gravity on the surface of Saturn = 9 N/kg

Therefore, we have;

The weight of the person = The force greater than which the person would have to push on the surface of Saturn so as to Jump = The weight of the person on the surface of Saturn = 60 kg × 9 N/kg = 540 N

Therefore, for a 60 kg person standing on a platform at the surface of Saturn and they jumped, they would have to push with a force greater than 540 N.

ii) The aqueous solution does not change in the color of the blue litmus paper and the blue litmus paper remains blue in color

The aqueous solution formed using the product (MgO) turns the red litmus paper blue

Explanation:

i) Magnesium easily burns in air or oxygen when heated to form a white powder of magnesium oxide. The burning (reaction) of magnesium in air is an exothermic reaction that involves the release of heat and light

The burning of magnesium wire is given by the following chemical reaction;

2Mg + O₂ + Δ Heat → 2MgO + Δ Energy

ii) When magnesium oxide is mixed with water if forms magnesium hydroxide Mg(OH)₂ as shown in the following chemical reaction;

MgO + H₂O → Mg(OH)₂

Magnesium hydroxide is basic and therefore it will turn red litmus paper blue and it does not change the color of the blue litmus paper.

A statue of a great baseball player weighs 2400 N and has a base that is 4 m x 2 m. What is the pressure the statue exerts on the floor?

Answers

Answer:

300N/m²

Explanation:

Pressure is calculated using the formula;

Pressure = Force/Area

Given

Force = 2400N

Area = 4m×2m = 8m²

Substitute the given parameters into the formula as shown;

Pressure = 2400/8

Pressure = 300N/m²

Hence the pressure the statue exerts on the floor is 300N/m²
