7 × 1 0 8 k g and that it landed 5 0 0 m vertically below the launch point and 3 0 m horizontally from it. Later measurements indicated that the block had a mass between 7. Seismic waves produced by its impact with the ground triggered seismographs as far away as 2 0 0 k m. On July 1 0, 1 9 9 6 , a granite block broke away from a wall in Yosemite Valley and, as it began to slide down the wall, was launched into projectile motion. Neglecting any mechanical energy loss the waves experienced as they traveled, determine the intensities of (b) the body wave and (c) the surface wave when they reached a seismograph 200 km away.(d) On the basis of these results, which wave is more easily detected on a distant seismograph? Assume that the impact lasted 0.50 s, the vertical cylinder had a depth d of 5.0 m, and each wave type received 20 % of the energy the block had just before impact.
Later measurements indicated that the block had a mass between 7.3 × 10^7kg and 1.7 × 10^8kg and that it landed 500 m vertically below the launch point and 30 m horizontally from it.(The launch angle is not known.) (a) Estimate the block's kinetic energy just before it landed.Consider two types of seismic waves that spread from the impact point - a hemispherical body wave traveled through the ground in an expanding hemisphere and a cylindrical surface wave traveled along the ground in an expanding shallow vertical cylinder (Fig. Seismic waves produced by its impact with the ground triggered seismographs as far away as 200 km. On July 10,1996, a granite block broke away from a wall in Yosemite Valley and, as it began to slide down the wall, was launched into projectile motion.
