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

<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>

madam [21]

The speed of the satellite in a circular orbit around the Earth is 1.32 x 10⁵ m/s.

<h3>Speed of the satellite</h3>

v = √(GM/r)

where;

  • G is universal gravitation constant
  • M is mass of Earth
  • r is radius of the satellite

v = √(6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ x 5.98 x 10²⁴/3.57 x 6.37x 10³)

v = 1.32 x 10⁵ m/s

Thus, the speed of the satellite in a circular orbit around the Earth is 1.32 x 10⁵ m/s.

A block of mass 0.254 kg is placed on top of a light, vertical spring of force constant 5 100 N/m and pushed downward so that th
ryzh [129]

Answer:

8.86 m

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of energy, the elastic potential energy initially stored in the spring will be converted into gravitational potential energy of the block when it is at its maximum height:

\frac{1}{2}kx^2 = mgh

where

k = 5100 N/m is the spring constant

x = 0.093 m is the spring compression

m = 0.254 kg is the mass of the block

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the maximum height of the block

Solving the equation for h, we find

h=\frac{kx^2}{2mg}=\frac{(5100 N/m)(0.093 m)^2}{2(0.254 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)}=8.86 m
