What type of fault creates huge mountains

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 .

Many Amtrak trains can travel at a top speed of 42.0 m/s. Assuming a train maintains that speed for several hours, how many kilo

777dan777 [17]

Answer:

605 km

Explanation:

Hello

the same units of measure should be used, then

Step 1

convert 42 m/s ⇒ km/h

1 km =1000 m

1 h = 36000 sec

$42 \frac{m}{s}*\frac{1\ km}{1000\ m}=0.042\ \frac{km}{s}\\ 0.042\ \frac{km}{s}\\$

$0.042\ \frac{km}{s}*\frac{3600\ s}{1\ h} =151.2 \frac{km}{h}\\ \\Velocity =151.2\ \frac{km}{h}$

Step 2

find kilometers traveled after 4 hours

$V=\frac{s}{t}\\ \\$

V,velocity

s, distance traveled

t. time

now, isolating s

$V=\frac{s}{t} \\s=V * t\\$

and replacing

$s=V * t\\s=151.2\frac{km}{h}*4 hours\\ s=604.8 km\\$

S=604.8 Km

What is the density (in kg/m3) of a woman who floats in freshwater with 4.92% of her volume above the surface

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

The density of the woman is 950.8 kg/m³

Explanation:

Given;

fraction of the woman's volume above the surface = 4.92%

then, fraction of the woman's volume below the surface = 100 - 4.92% = 95.08%

the specific gravity of the woman $= \frac{95.08}{100 } = 0.9508$

The density of the woman is calculate as;

$Specific \ gravity \ of \ the \ woman = \frac{Density \ of \ the \ woman }{Density \ of \ fresh \ water }\\\\ Density \ of \ the \ woman = Specific \ gravity \ of \ the \ woman \ \times \ Density \ of \ fresh \ water$

Density of fresh water = 1000 kg/m³

Density of the woman = 0.9508 x 1000 kg/m³

Density of the woman = 950.8 kg/m³

Therefore, the density of the woman is 950.8 kg/m³

What figure represents a longitudinal figure

OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

The wavelength can always be determined by measuring the distance between any two corresponding points on adjacent waves. In the case of a longitudinal wave, a wavelength measurement is made by measuring the distance from a compression to the next compression or from a rarefaction to the next rarefaction.

Perpendicular parking spaces require turning at a ______-degree angle.

Archy [21]

Perpendicular means at 90 degree angle. so,
<span>Perpendicular parking spaces require turning at a 90 degree angle.

When you are going to park perpendicularly, you need a distance of 7 to 8 feet from the vehicle you are parking next to, and when you are parking parallel, you need 5 feet distance from the vehicle you are parking next to.</span>
