Body waves
Explanation:
A shear wave(S-wave) is a type of seismic body waves that shakes the ground back and forth perpendicular to the direction the wave is moving.
- Seismic waves are elastic waves usually generated when there is a disturbance within the earth.
- There are two types of seismic waves:
Surface waves
Body waves
- Body waves travel within the earth and they cause disturbances there. P and S waves are the two types of body waves that we have.
- Surface waves travels on the earth surface. They are the love and rayleigh waves. They are the ones that cause destruction on the earth surface during an earthquake.

Explanation:
It is given that,
The horizontal speed of a cliff diver, 
It reaches the water below 2.00 s later, t = 2 s
Let
is the distance where the diver hit the water. It can be calculated as follows :

Let
is the height of the cliff. It can be calculated using second equation of motion as follows :

So, the cliff is 19.6 m high and it will hit the water at a distance of 19.6 m.
Answer:
I = 4.75 A
Explanation:
To find the current in the wire you use the following relation:
(1)
E: electric field E(t)=0.0004t2−0.0001t+0.0004
ρ: resistivity of the material = 2.75×10−8 ohm-meters
J: current density
The current density is also given by:
(2)
I: current
A: cross area of the wire = π(d/2)^2
d: diameter of the wire = 0.205 cm = 0.00205 m
You replace the equation (2) into the equation (1), and you solve for the current I:

Next, you replace for all variables:

hence, the current in the wire is 4.75A
Answer:twice of initial value
Explanation:
Given
spring compresses
distance for some initial speed
Suppose v is the initial speed and k be the spring constant
Applying conservation of energy
kinetic energy converted into spring Elastic potential energy

When speed doubles

divide 1 and 2


Therefore spring compresses twice the initial value
Answer:
28.6260196842 m
Explanation:
Let h be the height of the building
t = Time taken by the watermelon to fall to the ground
Time taken to hear the sound is 2.5 seconds
Time taken by the sound to travel the height of the cliff = 2.5-t
Speed of sound in air = 340 m/s
For the watermelon falling

For the sound
Distance = Speed × Time

Here, distance traveled by the stone and sound is equal


The time taken to fall down is 2.4158 seconds

Height of the buidling is 28.6260196842 m
