... friction is 0.1, and the child is moving at 5 m/s when she jumps in the wagon, how far does the wagon roll before coming to a stop? (10 points) This was a two-part problem. To find the distance the loaded wagon rolled, you needed to find its initial velocity. That in turn came from the conservation ...

How can the second law help find net force? • If you know an object’s mass & acceleration, you can use Newton’s second law to find the force by using the equation F=ma. • Suppose a tennis ball leaves a racket with a speed of 100 km/h with an acceleration of 5,000 m/s2. The ball’s mass is 0.06 kg. F ...

Seismometer

Seismometers are instruments that measure motion of the ground, including those of seismic waves generated by earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and other seismic sources. Records of seismic waves allow seismologists to map the interior of the Earth, and locate and measure the size of these different sources.The word derives from the Greek σεισμός, seismós, a shaking or quake, from the verb σείω, seíō, to shake; and μέτρον, métron, measure and was coined by David Milne-Home in 1841, to describe an instrument designed by Scottish physicist James David Forbes.Seismograph is another Greek term from seismós and γράφω, gráphō, to draw. It is often used to mean seismometer, though it is more applicable to the older instruments in which the measuring and recording of ground motion were combined than to modern systems, in which these functions are separated.Both types provide a continuous record of ground motion; this distinguishes them from seismoscopes, which merely indicate that motion has occurred, perhaps with some simple measure of how large it was.The concerning technical discipline is called seismometry, a branch of seismology.
