They are built through the process of what called as Orogenesis. Orogenesis is the process of the mountain making, upheaval or formation. It is also called Orogeny. Orogeny is the process which the mountains are formed. The process of mountain formation especially when it is faulting. The making of the mountains is also Orogenesis. An orogeny is an event which leads to mountain deformation due to some interaction between Earth Lithosphere and tectonic plates. When continental plates crumple and pushed forward to form one or more mountain ranges an orogen or orogenic belt develops, it involves many geological processes called orogenesis.

A 41.0 g marble moving at 2.30 m/s strikes a 25.0 g marble at rest. What is the speed of each marble immediately after the colli
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

speed of each marble after collision will be 1.728 m/sec

Explanation:

We have given mass of the marble m_1=41gram=0.041kg

Velocity of marble v_1=2.30m/sec

Its collides with other marble of mass 25 gram

So mass of other marble m_2=25gram=0.025kg

Second marble is at so v_2=0m/sec

We have to find the velocity of second marble

From momentum conservation we know that

m_1v_1+m_2v_2=(m_!+m_2)v, here v is common velocity of both marble after collision

So 0.041\times 2.30+0.025\times 0=(0.041+0.025)v

v = 1.428 m /sec

So speed of each marble after collision will be 1.728 m/sec

Predict the energy transformation that occurs when carson sands a piece of wood with sandpaper.
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

Explanation:

The hand provides Kinetic Energy in moving.

The KE is transformed to Frictional energy

The Frictional Energy can produce heat and light energy.

The sandpaper produces little shreds from the grit of the paper.

The shreds have KE (they move)

ANTONII [103]

Answer:

W=315 x 10⁵ J

Explanation:

Given that

F= 2.5 x 10⁵ N

d= 90 m

K.E.=5.4 x 10⁷ J

We know that work done by all force is equal to the change in kinetic energy

Lets take work done by catapult is W

W + F.d= K.E.

W= 5.4 x 10⁷ -  2.5 x 10⁵  x 90 J

W= (540 - 25 x 9) 10⁵ J

W=315 x 10⁵ J
