An earthquake emits both S-waves and P-waves which travel at different speeds through the Earth. A P-wave travels at 9 000 m/s and an S-wave travels at 5 000 m/s. If P-waves are received at a seismic station 1.00 minute before an S-wave arrives, how far away is the earthquake center?

Answers

Answer 1

Assuming constant speeds, the P-wave covers a distance d in time t such that

9000 m/s = d/(60 t)

while the S-wave covers the same distance after 1 more minute so that

5000 m/s = d/(60(t + 1))

Now,

d = 540,000 t

d = 300,000(t + 1) = 300,000 t + 300,000

Solve for t in the first equation and substitute it into the second equation, then solve for d :

t = d/540,000

d = 300,000/540,000 d + 300,000

4/9 d = 300,000

d = 675,000

So the earthquake center is 675,000 m away from the seismic station.

All household circuits are wired in parallel. A 1140-W toaster, a 270-W blender, and a 80-W lamp are plugged into the same outlet. (The three devices are in parallel when plugged into the same outlet.) Assume that this is the standard household 120-V circuit with a 15-A fuse.
a. What current is drawn by each device?
b. To see if this combination will blow the 15-A fuse, find the total current used when all three appliances are on.

Answers

Answer:

total current = 12.417 A

so it will not fuse as current is less than 15 A

Explanation:

given data

toaster = 1140-W

blender = 270-W

lamp = 80-W

voltage = 120 V

solution

we know that current is express as

current = power ÷ voltage   ......................1

here voltage is same in all three device

so

current by toaster is

I = [tex]\frac{1140}{120}[/tex]

I = 9.5 A

and

current by blender

I = [tex]\frac{270}{120}[/tex]

I = 2.25 A

and

current by lamp is

I = [tex]\frac{80}{120}[/tex]

I = 0.667 A

so here device in parallel so

total current is = 9.5 A + 2.25 A + 0.667 A

total current = 12.417 A

so it will not fuse as current is less than 15 A

If R = 20 Ω, what is the equivalent resistance between points A and B in the figure?​

Answers

Answer:

c. 70 Ω

Explanation:

The R and R resistors are in parallel.  The 2R and 2R resistors are in parallel.  The 4R and 4R resistors are in parallel.  Each parallel combination is in series with each other.  Therefore, the equivalent resistance is:

Req = 1/(1/R + 1/R) + 1/(1/2R + 1/2R) + 1/(1/4R + 1/4R)

Req = R/2 + 2R/2 + 4R/2

Req = 3.5R

Req = 70Ω

Complete question is;

A circuit consists of four 100-W lamps connected in parallel across a 230-V supply. Inadvertently, a voltmeter has been connected in series with the lamps. The resistance of the voltmeter is 1500 Ω and that of the lamps under the conditions stated is six times their value then burning normally. What will be the reading of the voltmeter?

Answer:

150.42 V

Explanation:

We are told that the circuit consists of four 100W lamps.

We know that Power is given by the equation;

P = V²/R

Thus;

R = V²/P

Now, we are told that the four lamps are connected in parallel across a 230V supply.

Thus, V = 230 V

So resistance, R = 230²/100

R = 529 Ω

We are told that the resistance of the lamps under the conditions stated is six times their value when burning normally.

Thus, total resistance of each lamp under the conditions = 529 × 6 = 3174 Ω

So, since they are connected in parallel, equivalent resistance for each lamp = 3174/4 = 793.5 Ω

Now, since this resistance is connected in series with the voltmeter resistance of 1500 Ω

Therefore, total circuit resistance = 1500 + 793.5 = 2293.5 Ω

Thus;

circuit current = 230/2293.5 = 0.100283 A

Now, according to Ohm’s law, voltage drop across the voltmeter = 1500 × 0.100283 ≈ 150.42V

The resistance of the voltmeter is 1500 Ω and that of the lamps under the conditions stated is six times their value then burning normally. What will be the reading of the voltmeter?

Answer:

the reading of the voltmeter=150.4V

Explanation:

We can determine the wattage of a lamp using below expression:

: W = I² R....................eqn(1)

But fro ohms law V=IR

then I= V/R

If we substitute I into equation (1)

We have W= V²/R

But W= 100W

V= 230V

Then

W=220²/R

100 = 2302/R

R = 529 Ω

We can as well calculate the Resistance of each lamp under given condition that they are sixtimes their value when burning normally.

R = 6 × 529 = 3174 Ω

We can also calculate quivalent resistance of the abovefour lamps connected in parallel then

R = 3174/4

= 793.5 Ω

total circuit resistance can be calculated since we know that resistance is connected to voltmeter of 1500 Ω resistance in series arrangement

Then

total circuit resistance = 1500 + 793.5

= 2293.5 Ω

Then from ohms law again

I= V/R

circuit current = 230/2293.5 A

The reading of the voltage drop across the voltmeter

= 1500 × 230/2293.5

Water flows at 0.00027 m3/s through a 10-m long garden hose lying on the ground, with a radius of 0.01 m. Water has a viscosity of 1 mPa.s What is the magnitude of gauge pressure in Pa of the water entering the hose

Answers

Answer:

The gauge pressure is  [tex]P = 687.4 \ Pa[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The rate of flow is  [tex]Q = 0.00027 m^3 /s[/tex]

      The height is h  =  10 m

      The radius is  r =  0.01 m

     The  viscosity is  [tex]\eta = 1mPa \cdot s = 1 *10^{-3} \ Pa\cdot s[/tex]

       

Generally the gauge pressure according to Poiseuille's equation  is mathematically represented as  

               [tex]P = 8 \pi \eta * \frac{L * v }{ A}[/tex]

Here v is the velocity of the water which is mathematically represented according to continuity equation as

             [tex]v = \frac{Q}{A }[/tex]

Where A is the cross-sectional area which is mathematically represented as

            [tex]A = \pi r^2[/tex]

substituting values

          [tex]A = 3.142 *(0.01)^2[/tex]

           [tex]A = 3.142 *10^{-4} \ m^2[/tex]

So

      [tex]v = \frac{ 0.00027}{3.142*10^{-4}}[/tex]

       [tex]v = 0.8593 \ m/s[/tex]

So

       [tex]P = 8 * 3.142 * 1.0*10^{-3}* \frac{10 * 0.8593 }{ 3.142*10^{-4}}[/tex]

       [tex]P = 687.4 \ Pa[/tex]

A pulley 326 mm in diameter and rotating initially at 4.00 revolutions per second receives a constant angular acceleration of 2.25 radians per second squared by a drive belt. What is the linear velocity of the belt after 5.00 seconds

Answers

Answer:

The linear velocity, v = 5.93 m/s

Explanation:

To find the linear velocity after 5 seconds, we find its angular velocity after 5 seconds using

ω' = ω + αt where ω = initial angular speed = 4.00 rev/s = 4.00 × 2π rad/s = 25.13 rad/s, ω' =  = final angular speed, α = angular acceleration = 2.25 rad/s² and t = time = 5.00 s

ω' = ω + αt

= 25.13 rad/s + 2.25 rad/s² × 5.00 s

= 25.13 rad/s + 11.25 rad/s

= 36.38 rad/s

The linear velocity v is gotten from v = rω' where r = radius of pulley = 326 mm/2 = 163 mm = 0.163 m

v = rω'

= 0.163 m × 36.38 rad/s

= 5.93 m/s

So, the linear velocity  v = 5.93 m/s

How much energy is required to accelerate a spaceship with a rest mass of 121 metric tons to a speed of 0.509 c?

Answers

Answer

1.07E22 Joules

Explanation;

We know that mass expands by a factor

=>>1/√[1-(v/c)²]

But v= 0.509c

So

1/√(1 - 0.509²)

=>>> 1/√(1 - 0.2591)

= >> 1/√(0.7409) = 1.16

But given that 121 tons is rest mass so 121- 1.16= 119.84 tons is kinetic energy

And we know that rest mass-energy equivalence is 9 x 10^19 joules per ton.

So Multiplying by 119.84

Kinetic energy will be 1.07x 10^22 joules

Light passes from a material with index of refraction 1.3 into one with index of refraction 1.2. Compared to the incident ray, what happens to the refracted ray?

Answers

Answer:

It bends away from the normal

Explanation:

From Snell's law of Refraction, when a ray passes from a medium of lower Refractive index to a medium with higher Refractive index, the Refractive ray will bend towards the normal. However, when the ray passes from a medium of higher Refractive index to a medium of lower Refractive index, the Refractive ray will bend away from the normal.

Now, from the question we are told that Light passes from a material with index of refraction 1.3 into one with index of refraction 1.2.

This means from a higher Refractive index to a lower one and from Snell's law as earlier said, the refracted ray will bend away from the normal

The refracted ray is seen to bend away from the normal.

Let us recall that an optically denser medium will have a higher refractive index. This means that the medium with a refractive index of  1.3  is the denser medium and the medium with a refractive index of  1.2 is the less dense medium.

From the statement in the question, we can boldly say that light is travelling from a denser to less dense medium given the values of the refractive index given. When light is travelling from a denser to a less dense medium, the refracted ray bends away from the normal.

Answer:

The intensity at distance 2d from source is  [tex]I_1 = \frac{1}{4} * I[/tex]  

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The distance of the wave from point source is  d  

     The  intensity is  [tex]I[/tex]  

     The distance we are considering is  2d

Generally the intensity of a wave is mathematically represented as

            [tex]I = \frac{ P }{\pi d^2 }[/tex]    

Here P is power of point source      

Now when  d =  2d

          [tex]I_1 = \frac{ P }{\pi (2d)^2 }[/tex]        

           [tex]I_1 = \frac{ 1 }{4 } * \frac{ P }{\pi d^2 }[/tex]

    =>   [tex]I_1 = \frac{1}{4} * I[/tex]  

The intensity at a distance 2d from the source is equal to [tex]I'=\frac{I}{4}[/tex]

Given the following data:

Distance = dIntensity = I

To determine the intensity at a distance 2d from the source:

Mathematically, the intensity of a wave is given by the formula:

[tex]I=\frac{P}{\pi d^2}[/tex]

Where:

I is the intensity of a wave.P is the power.d is the distance.

Since the distance is doubled (2d), we have:

Let the new intensity be [tex]I'[/tex]

[tex]I'=\frac{P}{\pi (2d)^2}\\\\I'=\frac{P}{4\pi (d)^2}\\\\I'=\frac{1}{4} \times \frac{P}{\pi (d)^2}\\\\I'=\frac{1}{4} \times I\\\\I'=\frac{I}{4}[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

a

   [tex]m = 0.169 \ kg[/tex]

b

  [tex]|v_{max} |= 0.5653 \ m/s[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The  spring constant is  [tex]k = 14 \ N/m[/tex]

     The  maximum extension of the spring is  [tex]A = 6.0 \ cm = 0.06 \ m[/tex]

     The number of oscillation is  [tex]n = 30[/tex]

      The  time taken is  [tex]t = 20 \ s[/tex]

Generally the the angular speed of this oscillations is mathematically represented as

           [tex]w = \frac{2 \pi}{T}[/tex]

where T is the period which is mathematically represented as

     [tex]T = \frac{t}{n}[/tex]

substituting values

     [tex]T = \frac{20}{30 }[/tex]

     [tex]T = 0.667 \ s[/tex]

Thus  

       [tex]w = \frac{2 * 3.142 }{ 0.667}[/tex]

       [tex]w = 9.421 \ rad/s[/tex]

this angular speed can also be represented mathematically as

       [tex]w = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }[/tex]

=>   [tex]m =\frac{k }{w^2}[/tex]

substituting values

      [tex]m =\frac{ 15 }{(9.421)^2}[/tex]

      [tex]m = 0.169 \ kg[/tex]

In SHM (simple harmonic motion )the equation for velocity is  mathematically represented as

[tex]\frac{1}{f}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{u}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{1}{v}[/tex]

where: f is the focal length, u is the object distance and v is the image distance.

Thus, u = 265.00 cm and v = 2.70 cm.

[tex]\frac{1}{f}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{265}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{27}{10}[/tex]

  = [tex]\frac{10+7155}{2650}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{f}[/tex]  = [tex]\frac{7165}{2650}[/tex]

⇒ f = [tex]\frac{2650}{7165}[/tex]

      = 0.37

The focal length of the eye is 0.37 cm.

When light is either reflected or refracted, the quantity that does not change in either process is its

Answers

Answer:

Frequency

Explanation:

When waves travel from one medium to another, it is only the frequency of the wave that remains constant . when a wave is refracted at the boundary between two media, the wave will slow down and its wavelength decreases. The wave usually bends at the interface between the two media. The wavelength and speed of a wave may change at the boundary between two media but its frequency remains the same.

Hence the frequency of light is its only property that remains constant.

An electric device delivers a current of 5.0 A to a circuit. How many electrons flow through this circuit in 5 s?

Answers

The amount of charge after 5 seconds is:

5.0 A × 5 s = 25 C

The number of electrons is:

25 C × (1 electron / 1.6×10⁻¹⁹ C) = 1.6×10²⁰ electrons

Two long, parallel conductors, separated by 11.0 cm, carry currents in the same direction. The first wire carries a current I1 = 3.00 A, and the second carries I2 = 8.00 A.

(a) What is the magnetic field created by I1 at the location of I2?

(b) What is the force per unit length exerted by I1 on I2?

(c) What is the magnetic field created by I2 at the location of I1?

Answers

Explanation:

Given that,

Separation between two long parallel conductors, r = 11 cm = 0.11 m

Current in first wire, [tex]I_1=3\ A[/tex]

Current in second wire, [tex]I_2=8\ A[/tex]

(a) The magnetic field created by I₁ at the location of I₂ is given by :

[tex]B_{12}=\dfrac{\mu_o I_1}{2\pi r}\\\\B_{12}=\dfrac{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 3I_1}{2\pi \times 0.11}\\\\B_{12}=5.45\times 10^{-6}\ T[/tex]

(b) Magnetic force per unit length exerted by [tex]I_1[/tex] on [tex]I_2[/tex] is given by :

[tex]\dfrac{F}{l}=\dfrac{\mu_o I_1I_2}{2\pi r}\\\\\dfrac{F}{l}=\dfrac{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 3\times 8}{2\pi \times 0.11}\\\\\dfrac{F}{l}=4.36\times 10^{-5}\ N/m[/tex]

(c) The magnetic field created by I₂ at the location of I₁ is given by :

[tex]B_{21}=\dfrac{\mu_o I_2} {2\pi r}\\\\B_{12}=\dfrac{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 8}{2\pi \times 0.11}\\\\B_{12}=1.45\times 10^{-5}\ T[/tex]

Hence, this is the required solution.

The heat capacity of object B is twice that of object A. Initially A is at 300 K and B at 450 K. They are placed in thermal contact and the combination is thermally insulated. The final temperature of both objects is

Answers

Answer:

The final temperature of both objects is 400 K

Explanation:

The quantity of heat transferred per unit mass is given by;

Q = cΔT

where;

c is the specific heat capacity

ΔT is the change in temperature

The heat transferred by the  object A per unit mass is given by;

Q(A) = caΔT

where;

ca is the specific heat capacity of object A

The heat transferred by the  object B per unit mass is given by;

Q(B) = cbΔT

where;

cb is the specific heat capacity of object B

The heat lost by object B is equal to heat gained by object A

Q(A) = -Q(B)

But heat capacity of object B is twice that of object A

The final temperature of the two objects is given by

[tex]T_2 = \frac{C_aT_a + C_bT_b}{C_a + C_b}[/tex]

But heat capacity of object B is twice that of object A

[tex]T_2 = \frac{C_aT_a + C_bT_b}{C_a + C_b} \\\\T_2 = \frac{C_aT_a + 2C_aT_b}{C_a + 2C_a}\\\\T_2 = \frac{c_a(T_a + 2T_b)}{3C_a} \\\\T_2 = \frac{T_a + 2T_b}{3}\\\\T_2 = \frac{300 + (2*450)}{3}\\\\T_2 = 400 \ K[/tex]

Therefore, the final temperature of both objects is 400 K.

A circular coil of wire 8.40 cm in diameter has 17.0 turns and carries a current of 3.20 A . The coil is in a region where the magnetic field is 0.610 T.Required:a. What orientation of the coil gives the maximum torque on the coil ?b. What is this maximum torque in part (A) ?c. For what orientation of the coil is the magnitude of the torque 71.0 % of the maximum found in part (B)?

Answers

Answer:

a) for the torque to be maximum, sin should be maximum

i.e (sinФ)maximum = 1

b) therefore the Maximum torque is

Tmax = 0.1838 × 1 = 0.1838  N.m

c) Given the torque is 71.0% of its maximum value; Ф  = 45.24⁰ ≈ 45⁰

Explanation:

Given that; Diameter is 8.40 cm,

Radius (R) = D/2 = 8.40/2 = 4.20 cm = 0.042 m

Number of turns (N) = 17

Current in the loop (I) = 3.20 A

Magnetic field (B) = 0.610 T

Let the angle between the loop's area vector A and the magnetic field B be

Now. the area of the loop is;

A = πR²

A = 3.14 ( 0.042 )²

A =  0.005539 m²

Torque on the loop (t) = NIABsinФ

t = 17 × 3.20 ×0.005539 × 0.610 × sinФ

t = 0.1838sinФ N.m

for the torque to be maximum, sin should be maximum

i.e (sinФ)maximum = 1

therefore the Maximum torque is

Tmax = 0.1838 × 1 = 0.1838  N.m

Given the torque is 71.0% of its maximum value

t = 0.71 × tmax

t = 0.71 × 0.1838

t = 0.1305

Now

0.1305 N.m =  0.1838 sinФ N.m

sinФ = 0.1305 / 0.1838

sinФ = 0.71001

Ф = sin⁻¹ 0.71001

Ф  = 45.24⁰ ≈ 45⁰

A bus carrying 10 people has over turned on a remote hillside during an intense thunderstorm. What three factors could contribute to creating a delay in advanced care

Answers

Answer:

The three factors that can contribute to creating a delay in advanced care for the passengers in the overturned bus include:

1. Lack of communication: Since the accident happened on the remote hillside, there is a possibility that, there would be no communication network which could have afforded them the opportunity to call medical or technical team.

2. Steep Nature of the Hill: This is another factor which will affect the care which they could have received. Steeply area tends to be difficult for climbing in or out from.

3. Thunderstorm: This factor is another reason which could contribute to delay in receiving advance care. Thunderstorm create barriers for location f the area where the bus overturned or in other situation complicate the rescue efforts of the team sent out to rescue.

Explanation:

What did the results of photoelectric-effect experiments establish?

Answers

Answer:

Option A

Electrons are emitted if low intensity, high-frequency light hits a metal surface.

Explanation:

From the experiments conducted to study the photoelectric effect, conclusions were made that the key factor that contributes to the emission of electrons from the surface of the metal is the frequency of the beam of light. This frequency has to be beyond a minimum threshold, if not, there will be no emission of electrons from the metal surface no matter the intensity of the beam of light or the length of time it is incident upon the metal surface.

This makes option A correct because it highlights the contributions made by the threshold frequency to the photoelectric effect.

At the pizza party you and two friends decide to go to Mexico City from El Paso, TX where y'all live. You volunteer your car if everyone chips in for gas. Someone asks how much the gas will cost per person on a round trip. Your first step is to call your smarter brother to see if he'll figure it out for you. Naturally he's too busy to bother, but he does tell you that it is 2015 km to Mexico City, there's 11 cents to the peso, and gas costs 5.8 pesos per liter in Mexico. You know your car gets 21 miles to the gallon, but we still don't have a clue as to how much the trip is going to cost (in dollars) each person in gas ($/person).

Answers

Answer:

cost_cost = $ 96

Explanation:

In this exercise we have units in the groin system and the SI system, to avoid problems let's reduce everything to the SI system

   

         performance = 21 miles / gallon (1,609 km / 1 mile) (1 gallon / 3,785 l)

         perfomance= 8,927 km / l

now let's use a direct rule of proportions (rule of three). If a liter travels 8,927 km, how many liters are needed to travel the 2015 km

          #_gasoline = 2015 km (1l / 8.927 km) = 225.72 liters

Now let's find the total cost of fuel. Ns indicates that $ 0.11 = 1 peso and the liter of fuel costs 5.8 pesos

            cost_litre = 5.8 peso ($ 0.11 / 1 peso) = $ 0.638

 

             cost_gasoline = #_gasoline   cost_litro

             cost_gasoline = 225.72   0.638

             cost_gasoline = $ 144

This cost is for the one way trip, the total round trip cost is

             cost_total = 2 cost_gasoline

             cost_total = $ 288

Now let's look for the cost in the vehicle, you and two people will go, for which a total of 3 people will go, so the cost per person is

                cost_person = total_cost / #_people

                cost_person = 288/3

                cost_cost = $ 96

If the intensity of an electromagnetic wave is 80 MW/m2, what is the amplitude of the magnetic field of this wave

Answers

CHECK THE COMPLETE QUESTION BELOW;

the intensity of an electromagnetic wave is 80 MW/m2, what is the amplitude of the magnetic field of this wave? (c=3.0×108m/s, μ0=4π×10−7T⋅m/A, ε0=8.85×10−12C2/N⋅m2)

Answer:

2.4×10^5 N/C

Explanation:

the amplitude can be explained as the maximum field strength of the electric and magnetic fields. Wave energy is proportional to its amplitude squared (E2 or B2).

We were told to calculate the amplitude of the magnetic field, which can be done using expresion below

S=ε²/2cμ

Where S is the intensity intensity of an electromagnetic wave given as 80 MW/m2

ε² is the Amplitude which we are looking for

c= speed of light given as 3×10^8m/s

Substitute the values into above formula we have,

S=ε²/2cμ

Making Amplitude subject of formula

ε²=S×2cμ

ε²=[80×10^6)(2×3×10^8)(4Π×10^-7)

= 245598.44

ε²=2.4×10^5 N/C

Therefore, amplitude of the magnetic field of this wave is S=2.4×10^5 N/C
