In 8,450 seconds, the number of radioactive nuclei decreases to 1/16 of the number present initially. What is the half-life (in s) of the material

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

2113 seconds

Explanation:

The general decay equation is given as [tex]N = N_0e^{-\lambda t} \\\\[/tex], then;

[tex]\dfrac{N}{N_0} = e^{-\lambda t} \\[/tex] where;

[tex]N/N_0[/tex] is the fraction of the radioactive substance present = 1/16

[tex]\lambda[/tex] is the decay constant

t is the time taken for decay to occur = 8,450s

Before we can find the half life of the material, we need to get the decay constant first.

Substituting the given values into the formula above, we will have;

[tex]\frac{1}{16} = e^{-\lambda(8450)} \\\\Taking\ ln\ of \both \ sides\\\\ln(\frac{1}{16} ) = ln(e^{-\lambda(8450)}) \\\\\\ln (\frac{1}{16} ) = -8450 \lambda\\\\\lambda = \frac{-2.7726}{-8450}\\ \\\lambda = 0.000328[/tex]

Half life f the material is expressed as [tex]t_{1/2} = \frac{0.693}{\lambda}[/tex]

[tex]t_{1/2} = \frac{0.693}{0.000328}[/tex]

[tex]t_{1/2} = 2,112.8 secs[/tex]

Hence, the half life of the material is approximately 2113 seconds

Calculate di/dt
di/dt = _________.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\frac{di}{dt} = 7.31 \ A/s[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that  

     The  number of turns is  [tex]N = 450 \ turns[/tex]

      The  radius is  [tex]r = 1.17 \ cm = 0.0117 \ m[/tex]

       The  position from the center consider is  x =  3.45 cm  =  0.0345 m

       The  induced emf is  [tex]e = 8.20 *10^{-6} \ V/m[/tex]

Generally according to Gauss law

        [tex]\int\limits { e } \, dl = \mu_o * N * \frac{di}{dt } * A[/tex]

=>    [tex]e * 2\pi x = \mu_o * N * \frac{d i }{dt } * A[/tex]

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

                [tex]A = \pi r ^2[/tex]

=>      [tex]e * 2\pi x = \mu_o * N * \frac{d i }{dt } * \pi r^2[/tex]

=>       [tex]\frac{di}{dt} = \frac{2e * x }{\mu_o * N * r^2}[/tex]ggl;

Here  [tex]\mu_o[/tex] is the permeability of free space with value

          [tex]\mu_o = 4\pi * 10^{-7} \ N/A^2[/tex]

=>     [tex]\frac{di}{dt} = \frac{2 * 8.20*10^{-6} * 0.0345 }{ 4\pi * 10^{-7} * 450 * (0.0117)^2}[/tex]

=>      [tex]\frac{di}{dt} = 7.31 \ A/s[/tex]

The value of di/dt from the given values of the solenoid electric field is;

di/dt = 7.415 A/s

We are given;

Number of turns; N = 450 per m

Radius; r = 1.17 cm = 0.0117 m

Electric Field; E = 8.2 × 10⁻⁶ V/m

Position of electric field; r' = 3.45 cm = 0.0345 m

According to Gauss's law of electric field;

∫| E*dl | = |-d∅/dt |

Now, ∅ = BA = μ₀niA

where;

n is number of turns

i is current

A is Area

μ₀ = 4π × 10⁻⁷ H/m

Thus;

E(2πr') = (d/dt)(μ₀niA)  (negative sign is gone from the right hand side because we are dealing with magnitude)

Since we are looking for di/dt, then we have;

E(2πr') = (di/dt)(μ₀nA)

Making di/dt the subject of the formula gives;

di/dt = E(2πr')/(μ₀nA)

Plugging in the relevant values gives us;

di/dt = (8.2 × 10⁻⁶ × 2 × π × 0.0345)/(4π × 10⁻⁷ × 450 × π × 0.0117²)

di/dt = 7.415 A/s

In a double-slit experiment, light from two monochromatic light sources passes through the same double slit. The light from the first light source has a wavelength of 587 nm. Two different interference patterns are observed. If the 10th order bright fringe from the first light source coincides with the 11th order bright fringe from the second light source, what is the wavelength of the light coming from the second monochromatic light source?

Answers

Answer:

The wavelength is [tex]\lambda_2 = 534 *10^{-9} \ m[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The wavelength of the first light is  [tex]\lambda _ 1 = 587 \ nm[/tex]

    The order of the first light that is being considered is  [tex]m_1 = 10[/tex]

     The order of the second light that is being considered is  [tex]m_2 = 11[/tex]

Generally the distance between the fringes for the first light is mathematically represented as

      [tex]y_1 = \frac{ m_1 * \lambda_1 * D}{d}[/tex]

 Here  D is the distance from the screen

 and    d  is the distance of separation of the slit.

      For the second light the distance between the fringes is  mathematically represented as

         [tex]y_2 = \frac{ m_2 * \lambda_2 * D}{d}[/tex]

Now given that both of the light are passed through the same double slit

       [tex]\frac{y_1}{y_2} = \frac{\frac{m_1 * \lambda_1 * D}{d} }{\frac{m_2 * \lambda_2 * D}{d} } = 1[/tex]

=>    [tex]\frac{ m_1 * \lambda _1 }{ m_2 * \lambda_2} = 1[/tex]

=>     [tex]\lambda_2 = \frac{m_1 * \lambda_1}{m_2}[/tex]

=>    [tex]\lambda_2 = \frac{10 * 587 *10^{-9}}{11}[/tex]

=>   [tex]\lambda_2 = 534 *10^{-9} \ m[/tex]

The location of a particle is measured with an uncertainty of 0.15 nm. One tries to simultaneously measure the velocity of this particle. What is the minimum uncertainty in the velocity measurement. The mass of the particle is 1.770×10-27 kg

Answers

Answer:

198 ms-1

Explanation:

According to the Heisenberg uncertainty principle; it is not possible to simultaneously measure the momentum and position of a particle with precision.

The uncertainty associated with each measurement is given by;

∆x∆p≥h/4π

Where;

∆x = uncertainty in the measurement of position

∆p = uncertainty in the measurement of momentum

h= Plank's constant

But ∆p= mΔv

And;

m= 1.770×10^-27 kg

∆x = 0.15 nm

Making ∆v the subject of the formula;

∆v≥h/m∆x4π

∆v≥ 6.6 ×10^-34/1.770×10^-27 × 1.5×10^-10 ×4×3.142

∆v≥198 ms-1

Can you come up with a mathematical relationship, based on your data that shows the relationship between distance from the charges and electric field strength?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

This question appears incomplete because of the absence of the data been talked about in the question. However, there is a general ruling here and it can be applied to the data at hand.

If an increase in the distance of charges (let's denote with "d") causes the electric field strength (let's denote with"E") to increase, then the mathematical representation can be illustrated as d ∝ E (meaning distance of charge is directly proportional to electric field strength).

But if an increase in the distance of the charges causes the electric field strength to decrease, then the mathematical representation can be illustrated as d ∝ 1/E (meaning distance of charge is inversely proportional to electric field strength).

A scatterplot can also be used to determine this. If there is a positive correlation (correlation value is greater than zero but less than or equal to 1) on the graph, then it is illustrated as "d ∝ E" BUT if there is a negative correlation (correlation value is less than zero but greater than or equal to -1), then it can be illustrated as "d ∝ 1/E".

A large reflecting telescope has an objective mirror with a 14.0 m radius of curvature. What angular magnification in multiples does it produce when a 3.25 m focal length eyepiece is used? ✕

Answers

Answer:

The magnification is  [tex]m = -2.15[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  radius is  [tex]r = 14.0 \ m[/tex]

    The  focal length eyepiece is  [tex]f_e = 3.25 \ m[/tex]

Generally the objective focal length is mathematically represented as

A charged particle moving through a magnetic field at right angles to the field with a speed of 25.7 m/s experiences a magnetic force of 2.98 10-4 N. Determine the magnetic force on an identical particle when it travels through the same magnetic field with a speed of 4.64 m/s at an angle of 29.2° relative to the magnetic field.

Answers

Answer:

The magnetic force would be:

[tex]F\approx 2.625\,\,10^{-5}\,\,N[/tex]

Explanation:

Recall that the magnetic force on a charged particle (of charge q) moving with velocity (v) in a magnetic field B, is given by the vector product:

F = q v x B

(where the bold represents vectors)

the vector product involves the sine of the angle ([tex]\theta[/tex]) between the vectors, so we can write the relationship between the magnitudes of these quantities as:

[tex]F=q\,v\,B\,sin(\theta)[/tex]

Therefore replacing the known quantities for the first case:

[tex]F=q\,v\,B\,sin(\theta)\\2.98\,\,10^{-4} \,\,N=q\,(25.7\,\,m/s)\,B\,sin(90^o)\\2.98\,\,10^{-4} \,\,N=q\,(25.7\,\,m/s)\,B\\q\,\,B=\frac{2.98\,\,10^{-4} }{25.7} \,\frac{N\,\,s}{m}[/tex]

Now, for the second case, we can find the force by using this expression for the product of the particle's charge times the magnetic field, and the new velocity and angle:

[tex]F=q\,v\,B\,sin(\theta)\\F=q\,(4.64\,\,m/s)\,B\,sin(29.2^o)\\F=q\,B(4.64\,\,m/s)\,\,sin(29.2^o)\\F=\frac{2.98\,\,10^{-4} }{25.7} \,(4.64\,\,m/s)\,\,sin(29.2^o)\\F\approx 2.625\,\,10^{-5}\,\,N[/tex]

Explain why the two plates of a capacitor are charged to the same magnitude when a battery is connected to the capacitor.

Answers

Answer:

This is because the same electron removed from the positively charged plate is what is taken to the negatively charged plate, maintaining the same amount of electron according to the conservation of charge in an electric circuit.

Explanation:

In any circuit, electrons are neither created nor destroyed according to the laws of conservation of charge, but are transferred from one point to another on the circuit. When the plates of a capacitor are connected to battery, the battery pushes the electron to move due to its potential difference. Electrons are then moved from the positive plate, at a steady rate, to the negative plate. The removal of electrons from the positive plate is what leaves it positively charged from deficiency of electrons, and the addition of electrons at the negatively charged plate is what leaves the plate negatively charge from excess of electrons. From this, we can see that the same electrons removed from the positively charged plate are  taken to the negatively charged plate.

A solid block is attached to a spring scale. When the block is suspended in air, the scale reads 21.2 N; when it is completely immersed in water, the scale reads 18. 2 N. What are the volume and density of the block?

Answers

Answer:

7066kg/m³

Explanation:

The forces in these cases (air and water) are: Fa =mg =ρbVg Fw =(ρb −ρw)Vg where ρw = 1000 kg/m3 is density of water and ρb is density of the block and V is its density. We can find it from this two equations:

Fa /Fw = ρb / (ρb −ρw) ρb = ρw (Fa /Fa −Fw) =1000·(1* 21.2 /21.2 − 18.2)

= 7066kg/m³

Explanation:

Answer:

The volume of the block is 306 cm³

The density of the block is 7.07 g/cm³

Explanation:

Given;

weight of block in air, [tex]W_a[/tex] = 21.2 N

Weight of block in water, [tex]W_w[/tex] = 18.2 N

Mass of the block in air;

[tex]W_a = mg[/tex]

21.2 = m x 9.8

m = 21.2 / 9.8

m = 2.163 kg

mass of the block in water;

[tex]W_w = mg[/tex]

18.2 = m x 9.8

m = 18.2 / 9.8

m = 1.857 kg

Apply Archimedes principle

Mass of object in air  - mass of object in water = density of water   x  volume                  of object

2.163 kg - 1.857 kg = 1000 kg/m³ x Volume of block

0.306 kg = 1000 kg/m³ x Volume of block

Volume of the block = [tex]\frac{0.306 \ kg}{1000 \ kg/m^3}[/tex]

Volume of the block = 3.06 x 10⁻⁴ m³

Volume of the block = 306 cm³

Determine the density of the block

[tex]Density = \frac{mass}{volume} \\\\Density =\frac{2163 \ g}{306 \ cm^3} \\\\Density = 7.07 \ g/cm^3[/tex]

An organ pipe open at both ends has two successive harmonics with frequencies of 220 Hz and 240 Hz. What is the length of the pipe? The speed of sound is 343 m/s in air.

Answers

Answer:

The  length is  [tex]l = 8.6 \ m[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The frequencies of the two successive harmonics are [tex]f_1 = 220 \ Hz[/tex] ,  [tex]f_2 = 240 \ Hz[/tex]

   The speed of sound in the air is  [tex]v_s = 343 \ m/s[/tex]

Generally the frequency of a given harmonic is mathematically represented as

     [tex]f_n = \frac{n v }{2l}[/tex]

Here  n defines  the position of the harmonics

Now since the position of both harmonic is not know but we know that they successive then we can represented them mathematically as

    [tex]220 = \frac{n v}{2l}[/tex]

and  

     [tex]240 = \frac{(n+1) v}{2l}[/tex]

So

   [tex]\frac{(n + 1 ) v}{2l} - \frac{n v}{2l} = 240-220[/tex]

=>  [tex]\frac{v}{2l} = 20[/tex]

=>   [tex]l = 8.6 \ m[/tex]

Distinguish between physical and chemical changes. Include examples in your explanations.

Answers

Answer:

Chemical changes are recognized when a substance changes its properties permanently and it cannot be the same substance as before.

Instead the physical changes implies that if you can return to the same substance through a reverse process.

Explanation:

A chemical change is, by example, a combustion, if a sheet of paper burns, its result is ashes, the ashes cannot go back to being a sheet of paper because its properties changed, heat energy was generated that changed matter permanently.

A physical change, by example, is that of freezing water, the water becomes ice, but this can easily become water again if the temperature is increased, its properties do not change and the chemistry of the substance does not change.

A chemical change takes place when a chemical reaction takes place, while when a matter changes forms but not the chemical identity then a physical change takes place.  

A product or a new compound formation takes place from a chemical change as the rearrangement of atoms takes place to produce novel chemical bonds.  

• In a chemical change always a chemical reaction takes place.  

• Some of the chemical changes examples are souring milk, burning wood, digesting food, mixing acid and base, cooking food, etc.  

• In a physical change no new chemical species form.  

• The changing of the state of a pure substance between liquid, gas, or solid is a physical change as there is no change in the identity of the matter.  

• Some of the physical changes are melting of ice, tempering of steel, breaking a bottle, crumpling a sheet of aluminum foil, boiling water, and shredding paper.  

Thus, a new substance is formed during a chemical change, while a physical change does not give rise to a new substance.

If a transformer has 50 turns in the primary winding and 10 turns on the secondary winding, what is the reflected resistance in the primary if the secondary load resistance is 250 W?

Answers

Answer:

The reflected resistance in the primary winding is 6250 Ω

Explanation:

Given;

number of turns in the primary winding, [tex]N_P[/tex] = 50 turns

number of turns in the secondary winding, [tex]N_S[/tex] = 10 turns

           y ’= m λ / (d 2L)

           y ’=( m λ / d L) /2

           y ’= y / 2

the distance between the interference fringes is reduced by half

b) the density of the network doubles

      if the density doubles in the same distance there are twice as many slits, so the distance between them is reduced by half

            d ’= d / 2

we substitute

          y ’= m λ (L d / 2)

          y ’= m λ / (L d) 2

          y ’= y 2

the distance between stripes is doubled

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 system of four particles moves along a dimension. The center of mass is at rest, and the particles do not interact with any objects outside of the system. Find the velocity of v4 at t=2.83 seconds given the details for the motion of particles 1,2,3

Answers

Answer:

v = - 14.08 m / s

Explanation:

The definition of center of mass is

        [tex]x_{cm}[/tex] = 1 /M  ∑sun [tex]x_{i} m_{i}[/tex]

where M is the total mass of the system and [tex]x_{i}[/tex] and [tex]m_{i}[/tex] are the position and mass of each component.

The velocity of the center of mass can be found by deriving this expression with respect to time

         [tex]v_{cm}[/tex] = 1 / M ∑ m_{i} [tex]v_{i}[/tex] vi

let's find the total mass

          M = m₁ + m₂ + m₃ + m₄

          M = 1.45 + 2.81 +3.89 + 5.03

          m = 13.18 kg

let us substitute in the velocity of the center of mass [tex]v_{cm}[/tex] = 0

          0 = 13.18 (m₁ v₁ + m₂ v₂ + m₃v₃ + m₄v₄)

          v₄ = - (m₁ v₁ + m₂ v₂ + m₃v₃) / m₄

let's substitute the given values

v₄ = -[1.45 (6.09 +0.299 t) +2.81 (7.83 + 0.357t) +3.89 (8.09 + 0.405 t)] / 5.03

They ask us for the calculations for a time t = 2.83 s

          v₄ = - [8.8305 + 1.227 + 22.00 + 2.839 + 31.47 +4.4585] / 5.03

          v = - 14.08 m / s

The velocity of the particle 4 at time, t = 2.83 s, is -14.1 m/s.

The given parameters;

[tex]m_1 = 1.45 \ kg, \ \ v_1(t) = (6.09 \ m/s) + (0.299 \ m/s^2)\times t\\\\m_2 = 2.81 \ kg, \ \ v_2(t) = (7.83 \ m/s) + (0.357 \ m/s^2)\times t \\\\m_3 = 3.89 \ kg, \ \ v_3(t) = (8.09 \ m/s) + (0.405 \ m/s^2)\times t\\\\m_4 = 5.03 \ kg[/tex]

The velocity of the center mass of the particles is calculated as;

[tex]M_{cm}V_{cm} = m_1v_1 + m_2 v_2 + m_3v_3 + m_4v_4\\\\V_{cm} = \frac{m_1v_1 + m_2 v_2 + m_3v_3 + m_4v_4}{M_{cm}} \\\\0 = \frac{m_1v_1 + m_2 v_2 + m_3v_3 + m_4v_4}{M_{cm}}\\\\m_1v_1 + m_2 v_2 + m_3v_3 + m_4v_4 = 0\\\\m_4v_4 = -(m_1v_1 + m_2 v_2 + m_3v_3)\\\\v_4 = \frac{-(m_1v_1 + m_2 v_2 + m_3v_3)}{m_4}[/tex]

The velocity of particle 1 at time, t = 2.83 s;

[tex]v_1 = 6.09 \ + \ 0.299\times 2.83\\\\v_1 = 6.94 \ m/s[/tex]

The velocity of particle 2 at time, t = 2.83 s;

[tex]v_2 = 7.83\ + \ 0.357\times 2.83\\\\v_2 = 8.84 \ m/s[/tex]

The velocity of particle 3 at time, t = 2.83 s;

[tex]v_3 = 8.09\ + \ 0.405 \times 2.83\\\\v_3 = 9.24 \ m/s[/tex]

The velocity of the particle 4 at time, t = 2.83 s;

[tex]v_4 = \frac{-(m_1v_1 + m_2v_2 + m_3v_3)}{m_4} \\\\v_4 = \frac{-(1.45\times 6.94\ + \ 2.81\times 8.84\ + \ 3.89 \times 9.24)}{5.03} \\\\v_4 = -14 .1 \ m/s[/tex]

Thus, the velocity of the particle 4 at time, t = 2.83 s, is -14.1 m/s.

"If a beam of monochromatic light is passed though a slit of width 15 μm and the second order dark fringe of the diffraction pattern is at an angle of 5.2o from the central axis, what is the wavelength of the light?"

Answers

Answer:

  λ= 5.4379 10⁻⁷ m = 543.79 nm

Explanation:

The phenomenon of diffraction is described by the expression for destructive diffraction is

           a sin θ = (m + 1/2) λ

           λ = a sin θ / (m + 1/2)

let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

           a = 15 um = 15 10⁻⁶ m

           m = 2

           θ = 5.2º

Let's calculate

          λ = 15 10⁻⁶ sin 5.2 / (2 +1/2)

         λ = 5.4379 10⁻⁷ m

Let's reduce to nm

          λ= 5.4379 10⁻⁷ m = 543.79 nm

A 0.500 H inductor is connected in series with a 93 Ω resistor and an ac source. The voltage across the inductor is V = −(11.0V)sin[(500rad/s)t]. What is the voltage across the resistor at 2.09 x 10-3 s? Group of answer choices 205 V 515 V 636 V 542 V

Answers

Answer:

205 V

V[tex]_{R}[/tex] = 2.05 V

Explanation:

L = Inductance in Henries, (H)  = 0.500 H

resistor is of 93 Ω so R = 93 Ω

The voltage across the inductor is

[tex]V_{L} = - IwLsin(wt)[/tex]

w = 500 rad/s

IwL = 11.0 V

Current:

I = 11.0 V / wL

 = 11.0 V / 500 rad/s (0.500 H)

 = 11.0 / 250

I = 0.044 A

Now

V[tex]_{R}[/tex] = IR

    = (0.044 A) (93 Ω)

V[tex]_{R}[/tex] = 4.092 V

Deriving formula for voltage across the resistor

The derivative of sin is cos

V[tex]_{R}[/tex] = V[tex]_{R}[/tex] cos (wt)

Putting V[tex]_{R}[/tex] = 4.092 V and w = 500 rad/s

V[tex]_{R}[/tex] = V[tex]_{R}[/tex] cos (wt)

    = (4.092 V) (cos(500 rad/s )t)

So the voltage across the resistor at 2.09 x 10-3 s is which means

t = 2.09 x 10⁻³

V[tex]_{R}[/tex] = (4.092 V) (cos (500 rads/s)(2.09 x 10⁻³s))

    =  (4.092 V) (cos (500 rads/s)(0.00209))

    = (4.092 V) (cos(1.045))

    = (4.092 V)(0.501902)

    = 2.053783

V[tex]_{R}[/tex] = 2.05 V

A mass m = 0.7 kg is released from rest at the origin 0. The mass falls under the influence of gravity. When the mass reaches point A, it is a distance x below the origin 0; when the mass reaches point B it is a distance of 3 x below the origin 0. What is vB/vA?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]v_B/v_A=\sqrt{3}[/tex]

Explanation:

Consider the two kinematic equations for velocity and position of an object falling due to the action of gravity:

[tex]v=-g\,t\\ \\position=-\frac{1}{2} g\,t^2[/tex]

Therefore, if we consider [tex]t_A[/tex] the time for the object to reach point A, and [tex]t_B[/tex] the time for it to reach point B, then:

[tex]v_A=-g\,t_A\\v_B=-g\,t_B\\\frac{v_B}{v_A}= \frac{-g\,t_B}{-g\,t_A} =\frac{t_B}{t_A}[/tex]

Let's work in a similar way with the two different positions at those different times, and for which we have some information;

[tex]x_A=-x=-\frac{1}{2}\, g\,t_A^2\\x_B=-3\,x=-\frac{1}{2}\, g\,t_B^2\\ \\\frac{x_B}{x_A} =\frac{t_B^2}{t_A^2} \\\frac{t_B^2}{t_A^2}=\frac{-3\,x}{-x} \\\frac{t_B^2}{t_A^2}=3\\(\frac{t_B}{t_A})^2=3[/tex]

Notice that this quotient is exactly the square of the quotient of velocities we are looking for, therefore:

[tex](\frac{t_B}{t_A})^2=3\\(\frac{v_B}{v_A})^2=3\\ \frac{v_B}{v_A}=\sqrt{3}[/tex]

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

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.
