Seismic Waves What are seismic waves? Seismic waves are the waves of energy caused by breaking of rock within the earth or an explosion. These waves are the energy that travels through the earth and is recorded on seismographs. There are many different types of these waves‚ but the two main ones are the body waves that usually travel though in inner layer of the earth‚ and the surface waves that only move around the surface of the planet. Body waves travel through the inner layer of the earth

Question 2.1: (i) Calculate the number of electrons which will together weigh one gram. (ii) Calculate the mass and charge of one mole of electrons. * ------------------------------------------------- Answer (i) Mass of one electron = 9.10939 × 10–31 kg Number of electrons that weigh 9.10939 × 10–31 kg = 1 Number of electrons that will weigh 1 g = (1 × 10–3 kg) = 0.1098 × 10–3 + 31 = 0.1098 × 1028 = 1.098 × 1027 (ii) Mass of one electron = 9.10939 × 10–31 kg Mass of one mole of

Ocean Waves A wave is a periodic disturbance in space and time‚ possibly transferring energy to or through a space-time region. Have you ever ridden a wave in the ocean? Ocean waves travel on the surface of the water. You can see them and you can feel them. As you swim through the water‚ you can even make your own waves. The winds cause waves on the surface of the ocean (and on lakes). The wind transfers some of its energy to the water‚ through friction between the air molecules and the water molecules

of the moon and the earth rotates eastward through the bulge once every 24 hours and fifteen minutes. The moon appears to rotate around the earth every day. However‚ it is the earth’s rotation that gives this appearance. The moon actually orbits the earth in an elliptical pattern‚ taking 27.3 days to complete one orbit. Earth is also being pulled towards the Moon and away from the water. When the Moon is full‚ or new‚ the gravitational pull of the Moon and the Sun are combined. At these
