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.

g100num [7]

The true brightness of an object is called its luminosity. It is the total amount of energy emitted by bright or meteorological objects over a period of time. It has the SI unit of joules per second or watts. So the answer is letter A. Intensity is the measure of how strong the substance or object is when it projects something. Magnitude is a measure of how great is the size the object produces. Viscosity is the measure of flow of a substance.

Could I please get some help on this question I don’t understand .

Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

12.5 m/s

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Height (h) = 8 m

Final velocity (v) at 8 m above the lowest point =?

NOTE: Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

The velocity of the roller coaster at 8 m above the lowest point can be obtained as follow:

v² = u² + 2gh

v² = 0² + (2 × 9.8 × 8)

v² = 0 + 156.8

v² = 156.8

Take the square root of both side

v = √156.8

v = 12.5 m/s

Therefore, the velocity of the roller coaster at 8 m above the lowest point is 12.5 m/s.

A parallel-plate capacitor consists of a set of two parallel plates of area A separated by a distance d. This capacitor is conne

icang [17]

Answer:

1) the capacitance of the capacitor increases. This is due to the induction of opposite charges on the two surfaces of the dielectric by the plate, this increased the charge in the field, from C =Q/v, it is seen that capacitance C will increase with increase in Q since v is constant.

2) the electric field intensity will also increase with increase in electric charges provided plate separation d remains constant.
