An engineer is designing a tsunami hazard mitigation plan for cities at risk of tsunami activity. one major goal of the plan is to implement warning systems that will give people enough advance notice to evacuate areas likely to be affected. based on the map, which cities in the united states would most likely benefit from the engineer's plan?

a)cities along the hurricane belt in the atlantic ocean
b)cities near volcanoes that have been recently active
c)cities near tectonic plate boundaries in the pacific ocean
d)cities along the path of the northeasterly trade winds

How are calculation for velocity and speed different

Two manned satellites approaching one another at a relative speed of 0.550 m/s intend to dock. the first has a mass of 2.50 ✕ 103 kg, and the second a mass of 7.50 ✕ 103 kg. assume that the positive direction is directed from the second satellite towards the first satellite. (a) calculate the final velocity after docking, in the frame of reference in which the first satellite was originally at rest.(b) what is the loss of kinetic energy in this inelastic collision? (c) repeat both parts, in the frame of reference in which the second satellite was originally at rest. final velocity(d) loss of kinetic energy = ?

Air conditioners not only cool air, but dry it as well. suppose that a room in a home measures 5.0m×9.0m×2.4m . if the outdoor temperature is 30 ∘c and the vapor pressure of water in the air is 85 % of the vapor pressure of water at this temperature, what mass of water must be removed from the air each time the volume of air in the room is cycled through the air conditioner? the vapor pressure for water at 30 ∘c is 31.8 torr.
