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.

There are two torques t1 and t2 on the beam due to the weights, one torque t3 due to the weight of the beam, and one torque t4 due to the string.

You need to figure out t4 to know the tension in the string.

Since the whole thing is not moving t1 + t2 + t3 = t4.

torque t = r * F * sinФ = distance from axis of rotation * force * sin (∡ between r and F)

t1 =3.2 * 44g 
t2 = 7 * 49g 
t3 = 3.5 * 24g 

t4 = t1 + t2 + t3 = 5570,118

The t4 also is given by:

t4 = r * T * sin Ф

r = 7
Ф = 32°
T: tension in the string

T = t4 / (r * sinФ)

T = t4 / (7 * sin(32°)) 

T = 1501,6 N

Question:
exis [7]

Answer:

She can swing 1.0 m high.

Explanation:

Hi there!

The mechanical energy of Jane (ME) can be calculated by adding her gravitational potential (PE) plus her kinetic energy (KE).

The kinetic energy is calculated as follows:

KE = 1/2 · m · v²

And the potential energy:

PE = m · g · h

Where:

m = mass of Jane.

v = velocity.

g = acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s²).

h = height.

Then:

ME = KE + PE

Initially, Jane is running on the surface on which we assume that the gravitational potential energy of Jane is zero (the height is zero). Then:

ME = KE + PE      (PE = 0)

ME = KE

ME = 1/2 · m · (4.5 m/s)²

ME = m · 10.125 m²/s²

When Jane reaches the maximum height, its velocity is zero (all the kinetic energy was converted into potential energy). Then, the mechanical energy will be:

ME = KE + PE      (KE = 0)

ME = PE

ME = m · 9.8 m/s² · h

Then, equallizing both expressions of ME and solving for h:

m · 10.125 m²/s² =  m · 9.8 m/s² · h

10.125 m²/s² / 9.8 m/s²  = h

h = 1.0 m

She can swing 1.0 m high (if we neglect dissipative forces such as air resistance).

If a microwave oven produces electromagnetic waves with a frequency of 2.30 ghz, what is their wavelength?
vovikov84 [41]

Answer: wavelength is 1.30 \times 10^8 nm.

The frequency of the microwave is, f = 2.30 GHz.

To Find frequency use the formula:

c=fλ

Where, c is the speed of electromagnetic wave or light. f is the frequency, and λ is the wavelength of light.

Rearranging, \lambda = \frac{c}{f}

Plug in the values,

\lambdam = \frac{3 \times 10^8 m/s}{2.30 GHz\frac{10^9 Hz}{1 GHz}}=0.130 m\frac{10^9 nm}{1 m} = 1.30 \times 10^8 nm.

How do you calculate average speed?
Mila [183]

Divide
       (the distance covered in some period of time)
by
       (the time taken to cover the distance).

The quotient is the average speed during that period of time.
