A boy flying a pebble 15m high in the air which fell and settled at the bottom of a pond 10metres deep By how much distance did the pebble fall?

The pebble fell a total distance of 25 meters, which is the sum of the height it was thrown (15m) and the depth of the pond (10m).


What direction does sound move?

Sound waves move in all directions from their source in a radial fashion, spreading out in a spherical pattern. This means that sound waves move outward in all directions from the source, similar to dropping a pebble in a pond and seeing ripples spread outwards.


Why would a heavy stone being dropped into a pond produce waves with a higher amplitude then the impact of a light stone would?

A heavier stone creates larger disturbances in the water upon impact due to its greater mass and momentum. This results in larger waves with higher amplitudes compared to those produced by a lighter stone, which has less force upon impact, generating smaller waves.


What is Difference between sound wave and ripple in a pond?

Sound waves are longitudinal mechanical waves that travel through a medium, such as air or water, by causing particles to oscillate in the direction of the wave. Ripples in a pond are transverse waves that are caused by a disturbance on the water's surface, like a dropped stone, creating a series of wave crests and troughs that move outward from the disturbance. Sound waves propagate through a medium by compressing and expanding it, while ripples in a pond travel across the water's surface through a series of crests and troughs.


What are two examples of waves you can see?

Two examples of waves you can see are ocean waves at the beach and ripples on the surface of a pond or lake.

What is meant by the focus and epicenter of a seismic wave?

The focus and epicenter are terms used to describe the start and spread of a seismic event. Toss a pebble into a pond , the spot the pebble lands is the main energy focal point, the epicenter is the immediate surrounding area of the strongest waves, the waves become weaker as they leave this area.
