A thrust fault is a reverse fault with an extremely high dip (close to 90°). This is the false statement.
Answer: Option D
<u>Explanation:</u>
Faults are the fracture or fracture zone occurring on the rocks. These fractures can travel through the rocks leading to massive destruction. So, depending upon the direction of their travel, the faults can be classified as normal, reverse and strike slip fault. Also, the angle of dip along the fault is one of the important criteria for determining the type of faults.
There is dip-slip fault which has its movement along the vertical fault plane while the strike slip fault will be in horizontal direction. Similarly, an oblique fault will be acting in both vertical and the horizontal direction. So, the fourth statement related to thrust fault is false as in reverse fault or thrust fault the dip will be shallow and not high.
Answer:
L₁ = W×L / w
Explanation:
The scenario is shown in the image below.
<u>At the pivot point, the torque acting on this point must be zero so that there will be easy back and forth without the heavier child.</u>
<u>Torque created by lighter child + Torque created by the heavier child = 0</u>
Thus,
According to the axis system, the heavier child is left to the pivot (origin), so,
W×(- L ) + w× L₁ = 0
So,
<u>L₁ = W×L / w</u>
