Block mountains are caused by faults in the crust, where rocks can move past each other in a rift and rise. The uplifted blocks

become block mountains (also known as horsts) while the intervening dropped blocks are known as graben (i.e. depressed regions). Which mountain range is formed this way
Answer : A, The Sierra Nevada mountain range of western North America, running along the eastern edge of the U.S. state of California.

Answer:

<u>"The Sierra Nevada mountain range of western North America, running along the eastern edge of the U.S. state of California."</u>

Explanation:

<u>Block Mountains:</u>

Due, to stress created in side the crust of the earth the blocks or pieces of land or mass of land is created. In the past due to natural disaster and events that occurred in the ancient world, left us with some natural phenomenons called as block mountains. As the natural forces like seismic waves and other volcanic eruptions leads to such a disastrous amount of force that uplifts the mass of land on which it is acted upon.

<u>Characteristics of the Block Mountains:</u>

  • The Block mountain have very sharp and jagged peaks.

<u>Types:</u>

There are two main types of the block mountains,which are as below:

  1. <u>Lifted Mountain:</u> Those mountains which are characterized by having two steps, as they are created by ancient and disastrous faults inside the earth crust.
  2. <u>Tilted Mountains:</u> These mountains or ranges are basically characterized by having a gentle slope at one side while also having a steep side on its other face.

Two loudspeakers emit sound waves along the x-axis. A listener in front of both speakers hears a maximum sound intensity when sp
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer

given,

difference between the two consecutive maximum

λ = 0.870 - 0.540

λ = 0.33 m

speed of sound = 340 m/s

b) frequency of the sound

v = f x λ

340 = f x 0.33

f =\dfrac{340}{0.33}

    f = 1030.3 Hz

a) phase difference

  the expression of phase difference is given by

   \phi = \dfrac{2\pi}{\lambda}\ \delta

   \delta = \Delta x - \lambda

   \delta = 0.540 - 0.33

   \delta = 0.21\ m

now,

   \phi = \dfrac{2\pi}{\lambda}\ \times 0.21

   \phi = \dfrac{2\pi}{0.33}\ \times 0.21

   \phi = 3.99 rad

A plank of length L=2.200 m and mass M=4.00 kg is suspended horizontally by a thin cable at one end and to a pivot on a wall at
baherus [9]

Hello!

Let's begin by doing a summation of torques, placing the pivot point at the attachment point of the rod to the wall.

\Sigma \tau = 0

We have two torques acting on the rod:
- Force of gravity at the center of mass (d = 0.700 m)

- VERTICAL component of the tension at a distance of 'L' (L = 2.200 m)

Both of these act in opposite directions. Let's use the equation for torque:
\tau = r \times F

Doing the summation using their respective lever arms:

0 = L Tsin\theta  - dF_g

dF_g = LTsin\theta

Our unknown is 'theta' - the angle the string forms with the rod. Let's use right triangle trig to solve:

tan\theta = \frac{H}{L}\\\\tan^{-1}(\frac{H}{L}) = \theta\\\\tan^{-1}(\frac{1.70}{2.200}) = 37.69^o

Now, let's solve for 'T'.

T = \frac{dMg}{Lsin\theta}

Plugging in the values:
T = \frac{(0.700)(4.00)(9.8)}{(2.200)sin(37.69)} = \boxed{20.399 N}
