Why do scientists need to study seismic waves to analyze the interior of the earth and the layers of the earth?

Two loudspeakers, 5.5 m apart and facing each other, play identical sounds of the same frequency. you stand halfway between them, where there is a maximum of sound intensity. moving from this point toward one of the speakers, you encounter a minimum of sound intensity when you have moved 0.33 m . assume the speed of sound is 340 m/s. part a) what is the frequency of the sound? part b) if the frequency is then increased while you remain 0.21 m from the center, what is the first frequency for which that location will be a maximum of sound intensity? express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.

The receptor cells that convert light energy into neural signals are called

Aspring has a relaxed length of 33 cm (0.33 m) and its spring stiffness is 6 n/m. you glue a 76 gram block (0.076 kg) to the top of the spring, and push the block down, compressing the spring so its total length is 15 cm. you make sure the block is at rest, then at time t=0 you quickly move your hand away. the block begins to move upward, because the upward force on the block by the spring is greater than the downward force on the block by the earth. calculate y vs. time for the block during a 0.09-second interval after you release the block, by applying the momentum principle in three steps each of 0.03-second duration.
