A fault that is formed when compression causes the hanging wall to move over to the foot wall is a : Reverse Fault
Reverse fault is exactly the opposite of the normal fault which will occur on the region/area undergoing the compression

hope this helps<span />

To measure the height of a building without a ruler or tape measure, an engineer drops a rock off the top of the building and fi
serg [7]

The relevant equation we can use in this problem is:

h = v0 t + 0.5 g t^2

where h is height, v0 is initial velocity, t is time, g is gravity

 

Since it was stated that the rock was drop, so it was free fall and v0 = 0, therefore:

h = 0 + 0.5 * 9.81 m/s^2 * (4.9 s)^2

<span>h = 117.77 m</span>

What does the electric field strength tell about the electric firld?
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

The region around a charged particle where another charged particle experiences a force of attraction or repulsion is called electric field.

The strength of electric field is defined as the force experienced by the unit positive test charge.

E = F / q

Electric field strength is a vector quantity and it is measured in newton per coulomb.

Where, F is the force of attraction or repulsion between the two charges and q is the test charge on which the electric field strength is to be calculated.

The strength of electric field is more if the field is strong. It means more be the electric field strength at a point more be the electric field.

An object accelerates from rest and travels 53 m west in 5.2 s. Determine the acceleration
zmey [24]

Answer:

20.4m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial velocity  = 0m/s

Distance  = 53m

Time  = 5.2s

Unknown:

Acceleration  = ?

Solution:

This is a linear motion and we use the right motion equation;

        S = ut  + \frac{1}{2}at²

S is the distance

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

t is the time

 Insert the parameters and solve;

       53  = (0x 5.2) +  \frac{1}{2} x a x 5.2

       53  = 2.6a

         a = \frac{53}{2.6}  = 20.4m/s²

A piece of steel is 11.5cm long at 22C. It is heated to 1221C, close to its melting point. How long is it, in cm, at the high te
Nataly [62]

Answer:

The length at the final temperature is 11.7 cm.

Explanation:

We need to use the thermal expansion equation:

\Delta L=\alpha L_{0}\Delta T

Where:

  • L(0) is the initial length
  • ΔT is the differential temperature, final temperature minus initial temperature (T(f)-T(0))
  • ΔL is the final length minus the initial length (L(f)-L(0))
  • α is the coefficient of linear expantion of steel (12.5*10⁻⁶ 1/°C)  

So, we have:

L_{f}-L_{0}=\alpha L_{0}(T_{f}-T_{0})

L_{f}=L_{0}+\alpha L_{0}(T_{f}-T_{0})

L_{f}=0.115+(12.5*10^{-6})(0.115)(1221-22)

L_{f}=0.117\: m

Therefore, the length at the final temperature is 11.7 cm.

I hope it helps you!

On your first trip to Planet X you happen to take along a 280 g mass, a 40-cm-long spring, a meter stick, and a stopwatch. You'r
arsen [322]

Answer:

5.31143691523 m/s²

Explanation:

m = Mass = 280 g

x = Displacement of spring = 21.7 cm

Time period

T=\dfrac{14}{11}\\\Rightarrow T=1.27\ s

Angular velocity is given by

\omega=\dfrac{2\pi}{T}\\\Rightarrow \omega=\dfrac{2\pi}{1.27}\\\Rightarrow \omega=4.94739\ rad/s

\omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}\\\Rightarrow k=\omega^2m\\\Rightarrow k=4.94739^2\times 0.28\\\Rightarrow k=6.85346698739\ N/m

From Hooke's law

mg=kx\\\Rightarrow g=\dfrac{kx}{m}\\\Rightarrow g=\dfrac{6.85346698739\times 0.217}{0.28}\\\Rightarrow g=5.31143691523\ m/s^2

The acceleration due to gravity on the planet is 5.31143691523 m/s²

Yes, I have been able to satisfy my curiosity.
