All the processes that form mountain ranges are known as

1 answer:

3 0

All Mountains are built through a general process called "deformation" of the crust of the Earth. Deformation is a fancy word which could also mean "folding". An example of this kind of folding comes from the process described below.

When two sections of the Earth's lithosphere collide, rather than being subducted, where one slab of lithosphere is forced down to deeper regions of the Earth, the slabs pile into each other, causing one or both slabs can fold up like an accordion. This process elevates the crust, folds and deforms it heavily, and produces a mountain range. Mountain building and mantle subduction usually go together.

Bond [772]

Answer:

= 925.92 N

≅ 926N

Explanation:

Pressure due to car = pressure due to applied force

12000/18^2 = Force / 5^2

force = 12000 * 25/ 324

= 925.92 N

For equilibrium

Pressure1 = Pressure2

A1F1 = A2F2

12000*pi*(5^2) = F2 ( pi)*(18^2)

so, F2 = Applied force to lift car = 925.92 N

Pascal's principle

Pressure1 = Pressure2

F1/A1 = F2/A2 (F=force and A=area)

A1 =Pi*(0.05)²

A2 =Pi(0.18)²

F2=12000

F1 = 12000*(0.05)² / (0.18)² = 926N

You stand on a straight desert road at night and observe a vehicle approaching. This vehicle is equipped with two small headligh

choli [55]

Answer:

They can be seen from a distance of 4.372 kilometers.

Explanation:

Using the Reyligh creterion for diffraction through a circular aperture we have

$\frac{x}{D}=\frac{1.22\lambda }{d}$

where symbol's have their usual meaning

thus applying values we get

$D=\frac{dx}{1.22\lambda }$

$\therefore D=\frac{0.633\times 4.61\times 10^{-3}}{1.22\times 547\times 10^{-9}}\\\\D=4372.77m\\=4.372km$

The value of the normal force exerted on a 2,000 gram block on a table

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

N = 19.6 N

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a block, m = 2000 g

1 kg = 1000 g

It means, 2000 g = 2kg

We need to find the value of normal force on the block on a table. Normal force is balanced by the weight of the block as follows :

N = mg, g is acceleration due to gravity

N = 2 kg × 9.8 m/s²

N = 19.6 N

So, the normal force acting on the block is 19.6 N.

Energy produced by nuclear fusion is ?

pentagon [3]

<h3>Answer;</h3>

D. Produces no wastes

<h3>Explanation;</h3>

Nuclear fusion are nuclear reactions in which two or more atomic nuclei fuse or join to generate different atomic nuclei together with subatomic particles, such as protons or neutrons.
Additionally, nuclear fusion reactions yields lots energy. The energy produced is usually more than the energy consumed by the reaction.
Fusion power is a form of power generation in which energy generated using fusion reactions is used to produce heat that is used in generation of electricity. Energy from nuclear fusion reactions is not coupled by production of wastes.
