The answer of this question is called uplift i.e the rising of rock layers in geology is called uplift.

Uplift is the process in which there will be vertical elevation of earth surface due to various natural processes occurring inside the surface of earth like earth quakes. Sometimes uplift is also caused by the mountain building which hampers the balance of a particular region.

In the process of uplift,the rocks normally metamorphic rocks present underground will be brought up to the earth surface.The enhanced elevation will cause erosion of lot of materials on the surface of earth.

What exerts a centripetal force on a person running around a curve?
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

The inertial force of the body

Explanation:

Everybody that is moving in a curved path has an inertial force called centrifugal force.

The counterforce of the centrifugal force is called the centripetal force. It also acts on every rotating body.

This force is always directed towards the center of the origin of the curve.

The velocity of the object changes its direction and magnitude at any instant of time. But the speed and angular velocity of the object remains the same for uniform circular motion.

So, according to the Newtonian mechanics, it is the inertial force of the body responsible for the centripetal force.

To what temperature will a 79.0 g piece of glass raise if it absorbs 9457 calories of heat and its specific heat capacity is 0.5
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

T_final = 279.4 [°C]

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we must use the following equation of thermal energy.

Q=m*C_{p}*(T_{f}-T_{i})

where:

Q = heat = 9457 [cal]

m = mass = 79 [g] = 0.079 [kg]

Cp = specific heat = 0.5 [cal/g*°C]

T_initial = initial temperature = 40 [°C]

T_final = final temperature [°C]

9457 = 79*0.5*(T_{f}-40)\\239.41=T_{f}-40\\\\T_{f}=279.4[C]
