What type of fault creates huge mountains

Physics
1 answer:
vladimir1956 [14]3 years ago
7 0

Together, normal and reverse faults are called dip-slip faults, because the movement on them occurs along the dip direction -- either down or up, respectively. Reverse faults create some of the world's highest mountain chains, including the Himalaya Mountains and the Rocky Mountains .

When an object is thrown upwards and reaches its maximum height its speed is: a. Greater than the initial
suter [353]

Answer:

Option d

Explanation:

When we throw an object in the upward direction, we provide it with certain initial velocity due to which it covers a certain distance up to the maximum height.

While the object is moving in the upward direction, its velocity keeps on reducing due to the acceleration due to gravity which acts vertically downwards in the opposite direction thus reducing its velocity.

So, the maximum height attained by the object is the point where this upward velocity of the body becomes zero and after that the object starts to fall down.

A girl pulls on a 10-kg wagon with a constant horizontal force of 30 n. if there are no other horizontal forces, what is the wag
olga2289 [7]
Force = mass * acceleration
F = ma

Given m = 10 kg, F = 30 N;

F = ma
30 = 10a

Solving for a:
a = 3 m/s^2

The acceleration is 3 meters per second squared.

Determine the amount of work done by the applied force when a 87 N force is applied to move a 15 kg object a horizontal
elena-s [515]

Answer:

391.5 J

Explanation:

The amount of work done can be calculated using the formula:

  • W = F║d
  • where the force is parallel to the displacement

Looking at the formula, we can see that the mass of the object does not affect the work done on it.

Substitute the force applied and the displacement of the object into the equation.

  • W = (87 N)(4.5 m)
  • W = 391.5 J  

The amount of work done on the object is 391.5 J in order to move it 4.5 meters with an applied force of 87 Newtons.
