When waves generated by tsunamis approach shore, the height of the waves generally increases. Understanding the factors that contribute to this increase can aid in controlling potential damage to areas at risk. Green's law tells how water depth affects the height of a tsunami wave. If a tsunami wave has height H at an ocean depth D, and the wave travels to a location of water depth d, then the new height h of the wave is given by h

How are series and parallel circuits simililar? both have multiple paths for electrons to travel. both require resistors in their circuits. both require a switch to complete the circuit. both have at least one path for electrons to travel.

Determine the fraction of the magnitude of kinetic energy lost by a neutron (m1 = 1.01 u) when it collides head-on and elastically with a target particle at rest which is 21h (heavy hydrogen, m = 2.01 u).

The ultracentrifuge is an important tool for separating and analyzing proteins. because of the enormous centripetal accelerations, the centrifuge must be carefully balanced, with each sample matched by a sample of identical mass on the opposite side. any difference in the masses of opposing samples creates a net force on the shaft of the rotor, potentially leading to a catastrophic failure of the apparatus. suppose a scientist makes a slight error in sample preparation and one sample has a mass 10 mg larger than the opposing sample. if the samples are 12 cm from the axis of the rotor and the ultracentrifuge spins at 70,000 rpm, what is the magnitude of the net force on the rotor due to the unbalanced samples? ( be thorough on your answer)
