Question
Earthquakes are essentially sound waves—called seismic waves—traveling through the earth. Because the earth is solid, it can support both longitudinal and transverse seismic waves. The speed of longitudinal waves, called P waves, is 8000 m/s Transverse waves, called S waves, travel at a slower 4500 m/s. A seismograph records the two waves from a distant earthquake. The S wave arrives 2.0 min after the PP wave.How far away is the Earthquake. Assume that the waves travel in straight lines, although actual seismic waves follow more complex routes.
Answer:
The distance is [tex]d = 1.23 *10^{6} \ m[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The speed of longitudinal seismic wave is [tex]v_p = 8000 \ m/s[/tex]
The speed of Transverse seismic wave is [tex]v_s = 4500 \ m/s[/tex]
The time difference between the arrival of longitudinal seismic with respect to Transverse waves is [tex]\Delta t = 2.0\ min = 120\ seconds[/tex]
Generally the time difference between the arrival of longitudinal seismic with respect to Transverse waves is mathematically represented as
[tex]\Delta t = t_p - t_s[/tex]
=> [tex]\Delta t =\frac{d}{v_p} -\frac{d}{v_s}[/tex]
=> [tex]d = \frac{\Delta t}{ \frac{1}{v_p} - \frac{1}{v_s} }[/tex]
=> [tex]d = \frac{120 }{ \frac{1}{8000} - \frac{1}{4500} }[/tex]
=> [tex]d = 1.23 *10^{6} \ m[/tex]

A rock is dropped (from rest) off a bridge over the Merrimack River. The falling rock
accelerates at 10 m/s2 downward. If it takes 2.5 seconds before a splash is heard,
approximately how high is the bridge?
Answer:
31.25 meters or ~31 meters approximately
Explanation:
Let's see which of the 5 variables we are given since this is a constant acceleration problem.
[tex]v_i \ \ \ \ \ \ t \\ v_f \ \ \ \ \ \triangle x \\ a[/tex]We want to find the height of the bridge, aka the vertical displacement of the rock. Let's set the upwards direction to be positive and the downwards direction to be negative.
We are told that the acceleration is 10 m/s² downward, so we have a = -10 m/s².
We are also told that the time it takes the rock to hit the water is 2.5 seconds. Time is the same regardless of the x- or y- direction, so we can say that t = 2.5 seconds.
Now, we aren't told this directly, but we can figure out that the velocity in the y-direction is 0 m/s, since the rock is dropped from rest off the bridge. Therefore, [tex]v_i=0 \frac{m}{s}[/tex].
We want to find the vertical displacement, the height of the bridge, so we can say that [tex]\triangle x= \ ?[/tex]
We have 4 out of 5 variables:
[tex]v_i,\ a, \ t, \ \triangle x[/tex]Look through the constant acceleration equations to see which equation has all 4 of these variables. You should come up with this one (no final velocity):
[tex]x_f=x_i+v_it+\frac{1}{2}at^2[/tex]Subtract [tex]x_i[/tex] from both sides of the equation to get:
[tex]\triangle x=v_it+\frac{1}{2}at^2[/tex]Substitute in our known variables and solve for delta x.
[tex]\triangle x=(0\frac{m}{s})(2.5s) + \frac{1}{2} (-10\frac{m}{s^2})(2.5s)^2[/tex]0 m/s multiplied by 2.5 s is 0, so we have:
[tex]\triangle x =\frac{1}{2} (-10)(2.5)^2[/tex]Evaluate the exponent first and multiply the terms together.
[tex]\triangle x =(-5)(6.25)[/tex] [tex]\triangle x =-31.25[/tex]The vertical displacement is -31.25 meters from the rock's starting position, so we can say that the height of the bridge is 31.25 meters, which is approximately 31 meters tall.
Answer:
31 meters

Find the tension in the two ropes that are holding the 2.9 kg object in place. Rope 1 makes an angle of 51.3° with respect to the vertical. Rope 2 is pulling horizontally.
Answer:
Explanation:
Let the tension in horizontal rope be T₁ and in the other rope be T₂ which is making angle of 51.3⁰
The vertical component of tension T₂ will balance the weight .
= T₂ cos 51.3 = 2.9 x 9.8
T₂ = 2.9 x 9.8 / cos 51.3
= 28.42 / .625

Name each of the five steps in the PRICE treatment. (Site 1)
Answer:
Protection – Protect the wounded area with a support or something similar.
Rest – Do not continue to exercise while your wound is healing. It may take a few weeks or months to recover. You may need crutches or a sling.
Ice – Wrap a bag of ice or a bag of frozen peas in a towel and apply it to the wounded area for 15–20 minutes every two to three hours.
Compression – Apply elastic compression bandages to the wounded area during the day to reduce swelling.
Elevation – Make sure the injured body part is elevated above the height of your heart as much as possible to help reduce swelling.
Explanation:
Just did it.
Answer:
The five-step process for treating a muscle or joint injury such as an ankle sprain is called "P.R.I.C.E." which is short for Protection, Rest, Ice, Compression, and Elevation).
It can be used even by someone without first-aid training, and should be used immediately when an injury occurs – the earlier, the better – while further medical attention is being sought.
If the athlete experiences too much pain during the process, stop immediately.
"P" is for Protection
Protect the injured person and the area being treated but also protect yourself. If the injury occurs on the sports field, stop the game.
Protect the area being treated with a splint if possible.
If the athlete can move, carefully move them to a safer area using a stretcher or a crutch, but if there is any doubt, do not move the injured athlete.
"R" is for Rest
When a child is injured, the body responds in an effort to defend, localize, protect, and clean up the injured area, a response called inflammation. At the time of injury small blood vessels at the injury site rupture and cause tissue bleeding, which, in turn, can cause bruising and swelling.
Explanation:
There are five warning signs of inflammation:
Pain
Redness;
Tissue hotness;
Swelling, and
Loss of function.
Not every injury exhibits all these signs, but if your child is in pain then it is important to stop exercising immediately to avoid further damage.
"I" is for Ice
As soon as possible after injury, begin applying ice continuously for the first 15-20 minutes to decrease swelling and pain.
An ice bag can be applied directly to the skin (except on the outside of the knee) unless the child has a known cold allergy.
The safest form of icing is to use a plastic bag with ice cubes or crushed ice, or instant cold packs. Do not use “blue ice” or “gel packs”.
While icing will be uncomfortable at first, in 2 to 3 minutes, the skin will go numb and the ice bag will feel more comfortable.
If the child is very uncomfortable with ice bag, then a barrier like a wet towel can be placed between the ice and skin.
The ice bag can be secured in place using an elastic bandage, but the compression should not be too tight.
During the application of the ice, ask the child to wiggle their fingers/toes and monitor tissue around area that is being iced to ensure that they are not experiencing a lost of sensation.
Icing for 15-20 minutes with an ice bag is unlikely to cause nerve damage or frostbite; however, any loss of sensation and any changes in tissue coloration in areas other than the area that is being iced indicate that the application is no longer safe.
Because ice and plastic bags are so important, make sure that someone brings these to every practice and game. Better yet, to be on the safe side, bring your own!
A projectile was launched horizontally with a velocity of 388 m/s, 2.89 m above the ground. How long did it take the projectile to hit the ground? Select one: 1.34 s 0.308 s 0.768 s 0.0744 s
Answer:
Explanation:
Given
Velocity = 388m/s
Height S = 2.89m
Required
Time
Using the equation of motion
S =ut+1/2gt²
2.89 = 388t+1/2(9.8)t²
2.89 = 388t+4.9t²
Rearrange
4.9t²+388t-2.89 =0
Factorize
t = -388±√388²-4(4.9)(2.89)/2(4.9)
t= -388±√(388²-56.644)/9.8
t = -388±387.93/9.8
t =0.073/9.8
t = 0.00744 seconds

Answer:
1. Net force = 90 N
2. Acceleration = 9 m/s²
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Mass (m) of bag = 10 Kg
Force applied 1 (Fₐ₁) = 45 N
Force applied 2 (Fₐ₂) = 60 N
Force of friction (Fբ) = 15 N
Net force (Fₙ) =?
Acceleration (a) =?
1. Determination of the net force acting on the bag.
We'll begin by calculating the total force applied on the bag.
Force applied 1 (Fₐ₁) = 45 N
Force applied 2 (Fₐ₂) = 60 N
Total force applied = Fₐ₁ + Fₐ₂
Total force applied = 45 + 60
Total force applied = 105 N
Finally, we shall determine the net force acting on the bag. This is illustrated below:
Total force applied = 105 N
Force of friction (Fբ) = 15 N
Net force (Fₙ) =?
Net force (Fₙ) = Total force applied – Force of friction (Fբ)
Net force (Fₙ) = 105 – 15
Net force (Fₙ) = 90 N to the right
2. Determination of the acceleration of the bag.
Mass (m) of bag = 10 Kg
Net force (Fₙ) = 90 N
Acceleration (a) =?
Force (F) = mass (m) × acceleration (a)
90 = 10 × a
Divide both side by 10
a = 90 / 10
a = 9 m/s²
Thus, the acceleration of the bag is 9 m/s² to the right.

A child throws a baseball straight up into the air and it takes 4.5 seconds to reach maximum height. What is the total time of flight for the baseball after being thrown and the baseball player catching it? What are the known and unknown variables? And what equation must be used?
Answer:
9 s.
Explanation:
The following data were obtained from the question:
Time (t) taken to reach the maximum height = 4.5 s
Time of flight (T) =?
The time of flight (T) is simply defined as the total time spent by the ball in the air. Mathematically, it defined as twice the time taken (t) to reach the maximum height i.e
T = 2t
With the above formula, we can obtain the time of flight as follow:
Time (t) taken to reach the maximum height = 4.5 s
Time of flight (T) =?
T = 2t
T = 2 × 4.5
T = 9 s
Thus, the time of flight of the ball is 9 s.
