Answer:

A. Fault blocks

Explanation:

The block mountains are formed by pieces of the crust that breaks down and pieces are pushed up by the movement of the crust around them.  These type of mountains usually have a steep and a slope side, due to the irregular nature of the fracture.  Example of such mountains are the Sierra Nevada mountains in North-America.

<u>They're not caused by the collision of two tectonic plates</u>, like most of the mountains of our planet.

Answer: A. fault blocks

Explanation: Fault-block Mountains - Fault-block mountains are formed along fault lines (the edge between plates).

The huge chunks of rock on either side of the fault are called fault blocks. As the tectonic plates

move, some of the fault blocks are pushed up, while others are pushed down. This difference in

elevation (height) forms fault block mountains. The Sierra Nevada Mountains in the western United

States are fault-block mountains.

forsale [732]

The characteristics of wave are amplitude, speed , frequency and wavelength.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Amplitude is defined as the distance covered by the particles or molecules moving in a wave nature. So the maximum positive and negative peak position is termed as amplitude of the wave.

Every wave forms a series of crests and trough regions. The crest region is the positive amplitude while the trough region is the negative amplitude. The distance between two successive crests and troughs are termed as wavelength.

A single crest and trough forms a complete cycle. So the number of times a cycle is repeated for a given time is known as frequency. Speed is defined as the product of frequency and wavelength of the wave. In other words, speed of a wave is the rate at which the particles are moving a given area per unit time.
