Answer:
It was generally believed that mountains were produced by vertical forces
Explanation:
The main view of the world worked geologically prior to the 1960s was that the mountains were formed by the vertical forces of nature.
The early people prior to 1960s believed in many different natural phenomenons and they give their own reasons for their occurrence. But later many researchers and geophysicists studied the formation of the earth and came with possible answers to these questions.
Thus the answer is
" It was generally believed that mountains were produced by vertical forces."
Answer:
The weight lifter would not get past this sticking point.
Explanation:
Generally torque applied on the weight is mathematically represented as
T = F z
To obtain Elbow torque we substitute 4000 N for F (the force ) and 2cm
for z the perpendicular distance
So Elbow Torque is 

To obtain the torque required we substitute 300 N for F and 30cm 
So the Required Torque is 

Now since
it mean that the weight lifter would not get past this sticking point
Answer:
The tension on an object is equal to the mass of the object x gravitational force plus/minus the mass x acceleration. T = mg + ma.
