What is the average lifespan of a tornado?
The average lifespan of a tornado is about 10 minutes, but they can range from a few seconds to several hours. Most tornadoes travel a relatively short distance before dissipating.
What Earthquakes produce that travel though Earth?
Seismic waves are produced by earthquakes and travel through the Earth. These waves can be divided into two main types: body waves (P-waves and S-waves) that travel through the interior of the Earth, and surface waves that travel along the Earth's surface.
Approximately how long does an earthquake p-wave take to travel the first 6500 kilometers after the earthquake occurs?
P-waves travel at speeds between 5 to 8 km/s, as such a P-wave may take between 812 and 1300 seconds (13 and 22 minutes respectively) to travel 6500 km. Please see the related question on P-wave velocity.
What waves have the highest velocities in earthquakes?
Primary waves (P-waves) have the highest velocities in earthquakes, typically traveling at speeds of 6-7 kilometers per second through the Earth's interior. These waves are the fastest seismic waves and are the first to be recorded on seismographs during an earthquake.
How far does a primary waves travel in 10 minutes?
3,050
What is the change in velocity divded by the time taken to travel the distance?
Change of velocity / time = average acceleration.
How can you get average velocity?
You can calculate average speed by dividing the total distance travelled by the total time of travel. To go from speed to velocity, you would also need to determine the vector (direction of travel).
How long does it take to travel one astronomical unit?
That cannot be answered unless the velocity is known.
What is the velocity if you travel 882 ft in 5 seconds?
Assuming that you travel 882 feet in a straight line, the average velocity is 882.5 = 176.4 feet per second.
How long will it take for Apollo 11 to travel to the sun if it moves at the same average velocity from earth to the sun?
It would depend on what that velocity was.
What is average velocity?
Average velocity is defined as the change in position of an object divided by the time taken to undergo that change. It gives a measure of how fast an object is moving in a particular direction over a given time interval. Mathematically, it is represented as: average velocity = (final position - initial position) / time.
How far have you traveled if you go mph for minutes?
distance (s) = velocity (v) x time (t). If you travel v mph for t minutes you travel v x t/60 miles
How far do I travel if I am driving 65 miles per hour for 180 minutes?
Change the minutes to hours, so the units are common. Velocity = distance / time, so distance = velocity * time = 65 * 3 = 195 miles
In physics why is the displacement equal average velocity x change in time?
Displacement is equal to average velocity multiplied by the change in time because average velocity is defined as the change in displacement divided by the change in time. Therefore, rearranging this expression gives the displacement formula as average velocity multiplied by change in time.
If it took 33 minutes to travel 34 blocks what is the average minutes per block?
1.03 mpb
What does v equals d divided by t mean?
Velocity = Distance / Time Velocity is defined as the change in Distance travelled over the Time taken to travel across it at this average rate of velocity. Therefore, average velocity and time are inversly proportional to one another, while distance is directly proportional to both time and velocity, and vice versa. At a fixed velocity, the travel time increases as the distance becomes longer; if the distance is fixed, then the velocity must become greater to make the time shorter.
How do calculate average velocity?
Divide the net displacement by the time of travel.
