Sometimes tectonic forces cause cracks to form in rock. If pieces of the rock move along these cracks, the cracks are called fau

lts.
Scientists use the term faulting to refer to the formation of faults. Depending on the situation, faulting can act as a constructive or a destructive force. Which of the following best shows how faulting can act as a constructive force?
A.
Rock moves sideways along a fault with no change in elevation.
B.
Rocks are worn down as they grind past each other along a fault.
C.
Faulting produces an earthquake that causes a local bridge to collapse.
D.
Rock moves upward along faults to form a mountain range.

It's option D, rock moves upward along faults to form a mountain range

Explanation:

it's all colliding/pushing together so it all builds upward to make the mountain ranges

An AC source operating at 59 Hz with a maximum voltage of 170 V is connected in series with a resistor (R = 1.2 kΩ) and an induc
Alexxandr [17]

I = V/Z

V = voltage, I = current, Z = impedance

First let's find the total impedance of the circuit.

The impedance of the resistor is:

Z_{R} = R

R = resistance

Given values:

R = 1200Ω

Plug in:

Z_{R} = 1200Ω

The impedance of the inductor is:

Z_{L} = j2πfL

f = source frequency, L = inductance

Given values:

f = 59Hz, L = 2.4H

Plug in:

Z_{L} = j2π(59)(2.4) = j889.7Ω

Add up the individual impedances to get the Z, and convert Z to polar form:

Z = Z_{R} + Z_{L}

Z = 1200 + j889.7

Z = 1494∠36.55°Ω

I = V/Z

Given values:

V = 170∠0°V (assume 0 initial phase)

Z = 1494∠36.55°Ω

I = 170∠0°/1494∠36.55°Ω

I = 0.1138∠-36.55°A

Round the magnitude of I to 2 significant figures and now you have your maximum current:

I = 0.11A

A sprinter runs 50m. You are given a stopwatch. Describe how you would measure: 1. the average speed of the sprinter over the en
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

Explanation:

Distance = 50 m

1. To find the average speed, first start the stop watch as the sprinter starts running and then stop it when he reaches the finish line.

Now note the time taken by the sprinter to run for 50 m.

The average speed of the sprinter is defined as the ratio of total distance covered to the total time taken.

Average speed = total distance / total time

2. To find the instantaneous speed, check the seed of the sprinter as he is at the finish line.

A bicycle tire of a radius of 0.44 m has a piece of gum stuck on its rim. What is the angle through which the tire rotates when
Karolina [17]

Based on the calculations, the angle through which the tire rotates is equal to 4.26 radians and 244.0 degrees.

<h3>How to calculate the angle?</h3>

In Physics, the distance covered by an object in circular motion can be calculated by using this formula:

S = rθ

<u>Where:</u>

  • r is the radius of a circular path.
  • θ is the angle measured in radians.
  • S is the distance.

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

1.87 = 0.44 × θ

θ = 1.87/0.44

θ = 4.26 radians.

Next, we would convert this value in radians to degrees:

θ = 4.26 × 180/π

θ = 4.26 × 180/3.142

θ = 244.0 degrees.

A hollow Spherical conductor of radius 12 cm is
Ket [755]

Answer:

Explanation:

Radius of the charged sphere (R)=12cm

Charge (q)=6∗10^−6C

Electric field intensity (E)=?

i) On the surface

E=\frac{1}{4\pix_{e0}  } \frac{q}{R^2} =9*10^{9} *\frac{6*10^{-6} }{0.12^-2}  =3.75*10^6 N/C

ii) Inside the sphere,

E=0;  Because charge enclosed by Gaussian surface is zero.

iii) Outside the sphere at distance 15cm

i.e. r=12+15=27cm=0.27m

E=\frac{1}{4\pi _{e} }_{0} \frac{q}{r^{2} } =9*10^9*\frac{6 \a* *10^6}{(0.27)^2} =7.41*10^5 N/C
