What type of force was applied to these rocks to form folds?

Physics

<span>Folds are caused by compression forces pushing rock together like the ends of a big runner rug or something similar. You press on the ends, and things start to fold up and bunch up in the middle. So horizontal force or compressional force is said to be applied on rocks</span>

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

A) 12.57 m

B) 5 RPM

C) 3.142 m/s

Explanation:

A) Distance covered in 1 Revolution:

The formula that gives the relationship between the arc length or distance covered during circular motion to the angle subtended or the revolutions, is given as follows:

s = rθ

where,

s = distance covered = ?

r = radius of circle = 2 m

θ = Angle = 2π radians  (For 1 complete Revolution)

Therefore,

s = (2 m)(2π radians)

<u>s = 12.57 m</u>

B) Angular Speed:

The formula for angular speed is given as:

ω = θ/t

where,

ω = angular speed = ?

θ = angular distance covered = 15 revolutions

t = time taken = 3 min

Therefore,

ω = 15 rev/3 min

<u>ω = 5 RPM</u>

C) Linear Speed:

The formula that gives the the linear speed of an object moving in a circular path is given as:

v = rω

where,

v = linear speed = ?

r = radius = 2 m

ω = Angular Speed in rad/s = (15 rev/min)(2π rad/1 rev)(1 min/60 s) = 1.571 rad/s

Therefore,

v = (2 m)(1.571 rad/s)

<u>v = 3.142 m/s</u>

A bug is sitting on the edge of a rotating disk. At what angular velocity will the bug slide off the disk if its radius is 0.241
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

ω = 3.61 rad/sec

Explanation:

Firstly, we should know that the bug will not slip if friction can provide sufficient opposing force.

μmg = mv^2/r = mω^2r

Thus;

μg = ω^2r

ω^2 = μg/r

ω = √(μg/r)

ω = √(0.321 * 9.8)/0.241

ω = √(13.05)

= 3.61 rad/sec
