<span>The Appalachian Mountains were formed when colliding tectonic plates folded and upthrust, mainly during the Permian Period and again in the Cretaceous Period. The folds and thrusts were then eroded and carved by wind, streams and glaciers. These erosive processes are ongoing, and the topography of the Appalachian Mountains continue to change. They have changed with the miles of land that are cleared of all vegetation and topsoil. In the 1970's coal miners literally blow away the top of a mountain to get to the coal underneath.</span>
A wave is basically propagation of disturbances—that is, deviations from a state of rest or equilibrium—from place to place in a regular and organized way. Most familiar are surface waves on water, but both sound and light travel as wavelike disturbances, and the motion of all subatomic particles exhibits wavelike properties.
Answer:
Use Fc centripetal force as positive and W the weight as negative
N = m v^2 / R + m g
v^2 = (N - m g) R / m
v^2 = (995 - 57 * 9.8) 42.7 / 57 = 327 m^2/s^2
v = 18.1 m/s
Note: N - m g is the net force producing the centripetal force
