A geological fold<span> occurs when one or a stack of originally flat and planar surfaces, such as sedimentary strata, are bent or curved as a result of permanent deformation.

So A fold is a Bend? in a rock. Maybe.

</span>A fault<span> is a planar fracture or discontinuity in a volume of </span>rock<span>, across which there has been significant displacement as a result of </span>rock<span>-mass movement.</span>

Answer:

A bold is a bent in a rock.

A fault is a crack in a rock

Explanation:

A bold is a bent in a rock.

In earth's structure, when a flat plate of sedimentary rocks are pressed due to the plates movement into one another, the plate structure takes the shape of a bent structure or curved structure. The rocks buckle into folds. Fold are commonly seen in rock structure that is layered.

A fault is a crack in a rock.

Faults in a rock structure is formed due to stress. Faults are associated with the boundaries of the earth's tectonic plate. Fault is a zone of fracture between two blocks of mountain rocks and it causes relative motion in two sets of rock blocks.

A 26.4 g silver ring (cp = 234 J/kg·°C) is heated to a temperature of 66.2°C and then placed in a calorimeter containing 4.94 ✕
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

The final temperature of the mixture = 64.834 °C.

Explanation:

Heat lost by the silver ring = heat gained by the water + heat transferred to the surrounding.

c₁m₁(t₁-t₃) = c₂m₂(t₃-t₂) + Q..............Equation 1

Where c₁ = specific heat capacity of the silver copper, m₁ = mass of the silver copper, t₁ = initial temperature of the silver copper, t₃ = final temperature of the mixture. c₂ = specific heat capacity of water, t₂ = initial temperature of water, m₂ = mass of water, Q = energy transferred to the surrounding.

making t₃ the subject of the equation,

t₃ = [c₁m₁t₁+c₂m₂t₂-Q]/(c₁m₁+c₂m₂)........................ Equation 2

Given: c₁ = 234 J/kg.°C, m₁ = 26.4 g, t₁ = 66.2 °C, c₂ = 4200 J/K.°C, m₂ = 4.92×10⁻² kg, t₂ = 24.0 °C, Q = 0.136 J.

Substituting into equation 2

t₃ = [(234×26.4×66.2)+(4200×0.0492×24)-0.136]/[(234×26.4)+(4200×0.0492)]

t₃ = (408957.12+4959.36-0.136)/(6177.6+206.64)

t₃ = (413916.48-0.136)/6384.24

t₃ = 413916.34/6384.24

Thus the final temperature of the mixture = 64.834 °C.

if the train is accelerating and the bisicle is traveling at a constant velocity, what do you know about their speed?
Vanyuwa [196]
The train is accelerating meaning there is a change in the velocity so the speed is either increasing or decreasing depending. The bicycle is travelling at a constant velocity meaning it is travelling at a constant speed.
