Is there any alternative method to find the intensity of earthquake​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Hey mate....

Explanation:

This is ur answer.....

Another way to measure the strength of an earthquake is to use the Mercalli scale. Invented by Giuseppe Mercalli in 1902, this scale uses the observations of the people who experienced the earthquake to estimate its intensity.

A clay ball (mass = 0.25kg) has a rightward momentum of +1.75 kg∙m/s. A second clay ball (mass = 0.25 kg) has a leftward momentum of -1.75 kg∙m/s. The two collide, stick together, and come to a complete stop after the collision.
a) What was the total energy of the system before the collision?
b) What was the total energy of the system after the collision?

Answers

Answer:

the total energy before collision is 12.25J

the total energy after collision is tranfered to sound and heat (by the friction between the two clay balls)

Explanation:

first we should know the velocity of the 2 balls:

momentum=mass ×velocity

we have the momentum and the mass of the 2

so momentum ÷mass=velocity

clay ball 1 velocity=7 m/s & clay ball 2 velocity= -7 m/s

KE=1/2 mv²

1/2 ×0.25×7²=6.125J KE of ball 1

1/2 ×0.25×-7²=6.125J KE of ball 2

add them both we will have 12.25J which is before collision

this energy will then be tranfered to heat and sound as they stop after the collision(velocity =0m/s)

4.00 kg glass coffee cup is 30.0°C at room temperature. It is then plunged into hot dishwater at a temperature of 90.0°C, as shown in Figure below. If the temperature of the cup reaches that of the dishwater, how much heat does the cup absorb? C glass = 837 (J/kg.C)*

Answers

Answer:

Q = 200800 Joules.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 4kg

Initial temperature = 30.0°C

Final temperature = 90.0°C

Specific heat capacity of glass = 837 J/kg°C

To find the quantity of heat absorbed;

Heat capacity is given by the formula;

[tex] Q = mcdt[/tex]

Where;

Q represents the heat capacity or quantity of heat.

m represents the mass of an object.

c represents the specific heat capacity of water.

dt represents the change in temperature.

dt = T2 - T1

dt = 90 - 30

dt = 60°C

Substituting the values into the equation, we have;

[tex] Q = 4*837*60[/tex]

Q = 200800 Joules.

Therefore, the amount of heat absorbed is 200800 Joules.

How much work did you do?​PLEASE HELP ME,, I WOULD BE SO HAPPY You push against a wall with all your might and generate an insane 2500N of force. However, the wall doesn't move. How much work did you do?​

Answers

Answer: None

Explanation:

    Since the wall did not move, it does not matter how much force you generated. You did no work in the physics sense.

    Work is calculated by multiplying the displacement by the force. Since there was no displacement (no movement) we put the value as 0. 0 times anything is still 0, as shown below.

2500 N * 0 = 0.

    You did no work, or 0 J of work.

A yodeler yodels at a cliff 2000 m away. The sound of the echo returns in 9.8 s. If the wavelength of the sound wave is .85 m then what is the period of the sound wave?

Answers

Answer:

Hey man, are you who I think you are? ... you used your student number on your account.... anyways im in your class :) guess who I am for free points. so the formula for period is Period=Wavelength/Velocity, so P=.85/velocity, to find velocity would be using the formula speed=distance/time, so the velocity is 2000/9.8 which is around 204.0816327.... so back to period formula, P=.85m/204.08 which gives a period of .004165. But im not entire sure so you have to check that on your own. (gl guessing who I am. hehe)

Which of the following statements is true?
A. An object with stored energy cannot have mechanical energy.

В.An object with mechanical energy is always able to perform work.

C. An object with potential energy is always in motion.

D An object with kinetic energy is always positioned above the ground.

Answers

Answer:

В. An object with mechanical energy is always able to perform work.

Explanation:

Energy can be defined as the ability (capacity) to do work. The two (2) main types of energy are;

a. Gravitational potential energy (GPE): it is an energy possessed by an object or body due to its position above the earth.

b. Kinetic energy (KE): it is an energy possessed by an object or body due to its motion.

Furthermore, the mechanical energy of a physical object or body is the sum of the potential energy and kinetic energy possessed by the object or body and it is measured in Joules.

Mathematically, it is given by the formula;

Mechanical energy = G.P.E + K.E

Hence, the true statement is that an object with mechanical energy is always able to perform work.

the far point of a miopic person is 80cm in front of eye.what is the nature and power of the lens required to correct the problem​

Answers

Answer:

Part A

The nature of the lens required is a concave lens

Part B

The power of the lens required is -1.25 D

Explanation:

Part A

Myopia is the eye condition whereby the focus of light entering the eye is in front of the retina such that the vision of a myopic person is blurred

The given far point of the myopic person in question = 80 cm

To correct the problem, the focus of light entering the eye will be moved further to reach the retina, by means of a concave lens which makes distant objects appear to come from (form an image at) 80 cm

Part B

The lens formula is given as follows;

[tex]\dfrac{1}{f} = \dfrac{1}{d_o} + \dfrac{1}{d_i}[/tex]

Where;

f = The focus of the lens (virtual focus)

[tex]d_o[/tex] = The distance of the object = ∞ (infinity)

[tex]d_i[/tex] = The distance of the image = -80 cm (virtual image formed in front of the mirror)

Plugging in the values, gives;

[tex]\dfrac{1}{f} = \dfrac{1}{\infty} + \dfrac{1}{-80 \, cm} = \dfrac{1}{-80 \, cm}[/tex]

[tex]\therefore \dfrac{1}{f} = \dfrac{1}{-80 \, cm}[/tex]

f = -80 cm = -0.8 m

The power of a lens, 'P' is the reciprocal of the focal length, 'f', given in meters

[tex]P = \dfrac{1}{f (in \, meters)}[/tex]

The SI unit for the power of a lens is the dioptre (D)

Therefore;

[tex]P = \dfrac{1}{-0.80 \, m} = -1.25 \, D[/tex]

Therefore, the power of the lens required, P = -1.25 D.

Pilings are driven into the ground at a building site by dropping a 2250 kg object onto them. What change in gravitational potential energy does the object undergo if it is released from rest 16.0 m above the ground and ends up 1.30 m above the ground ? Change in gravitational potential energy:

Answers

Answer: 324.135 kJ

Explanation:

Given

Mass of dropping is [tex]m=2250\ kg[/tex]

The initial height of dropping is [tex]h_1=16\ m[/tex]

The final height of dropping [tex]h_2=1.3\ m[/tex]

Gravitational potential energy is the function of height i.e.

[tex]\Rightarrow \text{G.E.}=mgh[/tex]

Change in Gravitational Energy is

[tex]\Rightarrow \Delta \text{G.E.}=mg(h_1-h_2)=2250\times 9.8\times (16-1.3)\\\\\Rightarrow \Delta \text{G.E.}=3,24,135\ J\approx 324.135\ kJ[/tex]

A 400 N girl standing on a dock exerts a force of 100 N on a 1000 kg sailboat as she pushes it away from the dock. How much force does the sailboat exert on the girl?

Answers

Answer:

The boat pushes back on the girl with an equal force of 100N

Explanation:

Newton's third law of forces explains that action and reaction are equal and opposite. This means that for every action of a force, there is an equal but opposite reaction.

In our case, as the girl pushes on the boat with a force of 100N, the boat pushes back with a force of 100N also, following Newton's third law
