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. 

<span>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. </span>

The size (radius) of an oxygen molecule is about 2.0 ×10−10 m. Make a rough estimate of the pressure at which the finite volume
timurjin [86]

Answer:

P = 1 x 10⁸ Pa

Explanation:

given,

radius = 2.0 ×10⁻¹⁰ m

Temperature

T = 300 K

Volume of gas molecule =

V = \dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3

V = \dfrac{4}{3}\pi (2\times 10^{-10})^3

 V = 33.51 x 10⁻³⁰ m³

we know,

P  V = 1 . k T

k = 1.38  x 10⁻²³ J/K

P(33.51 x 10⁻³⁰) = 1 . (1.38  x 10⁻²³) x 300

P = 1.235 x 10⁸ Pa

for 1 significant figure

P = 1 x 10⁸ Pa

As a diligent physics student, you carry out physics experiments at every opportunity. At this opportunity, you carry a 1.33 m l
deff fn [24]

Answer: 62 μT

Explanation:

Given

Length of rod, l = 1.33 m

Velocity of rod, v = 3.19 m/s

Induced emf, e = 0.263*10^-3 V

Using Faraday's law, the induced emf of a rod can be gotten by the formula

e = blv where,

e = induced emf of the rod

b = magnetic field of the rod

l = length of the rod

v = velocity of the rod. On substituting, we have

0.263*10^-3 = b * 1.33 * 3.19

0.263*10^-3 = b * 4.2427

b = 0.263*10^-3 / 4.2427

b = 0.0000620 T

b = 62 μT

Thus, the strength of the magnetic field is 62 μT

Vector B~ has x, y, and z components of 8.7,
blagie [28]

Answer:

The magnitude of B is 10.95\ units

Explanation:

we know that

The magnitude of Vector B is

B=\sqrt{x^{2}+y^{2}+z^{2}}

where

x,y and z are the components of vector B

we have

x=8.7\ units, y=1.4\ units,z=6,5\ units

substitute

B=\sqrt{8.7^{2}+1.4^{2}+6.5^{2}}

B=\sqrt{119.9}

B=10.95\ units
