A fault that is formed when compression causes the hanging wall to move over the foot wall is a(n) ______.

Art [367]

A fault that is formed when compression causes the hanging wall to move over to the foot wall is a : Reverse Fault
Reverse fault is exactly the opposite of the normal fault which will occur on the region/area undergoing the compression

hope this helps

Technician A says that power is the rate that energy is stored. Technician B says that power refers to the rate that energy is t

Alex777 [14]

Answer:

C. Both technicians A and B

Explanation:

From the physical definition, power is defined as the rate of a body doing work. It is expressed as

P = w/t watts

Where

w - is the work done or the energy of the system in joules

t - time

The unit of power is represented in watts.

Whenever there is a rate of change of energy in the system, it accounts for the efficiency of the power of the system.

Hence, the statements of both technicians are correct.

A physics student standing on the edge of a cliff throws a stone vertically downward with an initial speed of 10 m/s. The instan

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

The velocity just before hitting the ground is $v_f = 30 m/s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The initial speed is $u = 10 m/s$

The final speed is $v = 30 \ m/s$

From the equations of motion we have that

$v^2 =u^2 + 2as$

Where s is the distance travelled which is the height of the cliff

So making it the subject of the the formula we have that

$s = \frac{v^2 - u^2 }{2a}$

Where a is the acceleration due to gravity with a value $a = 9.8m/s^2$

So

$s = \frac{30^2 - 10^2 }{2 * 9.8 }$

$s = 40.8 \ m$

Now we are told that was through horizontally with a speed of

$v_x =10 m/s$

Which implies that this would be its velocity horizontally through out the motion

Now it final velocity vertically can be mathematically evaluated as

$v_y = \sqrt{2as}$

Substituting values

$v_y = \sqrt{(2 * 9.8 * 40.8)}$

$v_y = 28.3 \ m/s$

The resultant final velocity is mathematically evaluated as

$v_f = \sqrt{v_x^2 + v_y^2}$

Substituting values

$v_f = \sqrt{10^2 + 28.3^2}$

$v_f = 30 m/s$

Looking for some help with the left side of the table and the questions followed :)

Inessa [10]

Answer:

(1). Going in the order: Gas, Liquid, Solid.

Particle separation: Very large; large; small.

Strength of forces between particles: very weak; weak; strong.

(2). a. The change of state is condensation.

b. The density of the substance is increasing as particles move closer together.

(3). a. The liquid's temperature decreases until it reaches solidification (freezing) point, and then the temperature will remain constant until all of the liquid has solidified.

b. The particles move with less and less energy until they have low enough energy to come together and solidify, then they will release more energy when they come together to form bonds, and vibrate about their equilibrium positions once they are part of a molecular bond.

Additional explanation:

(1). The particle separation in a gas is very large because the gas has a very low density, and since particles are not that close together, the strength of forces between particles is very weak.

The liquid is somewhat more denser than the gas and therefore the particle separation is large but less than that in a gas, The strength of forces between particles is still weak but greater than in a gas.

Finally, particle separation in a solid is small because the solid is still more denser than the liquid, and the strength of forces between particles is strong because it's these forces that give a solid its rigid shape.

(2). a.The change of state of a substance in which particles slow down and move close together is called condensation.

b. As the particles move close together, they are occupying less and less volume; therefore, the density is increasing.

(3). The explanation is already given in the answer.

PLEASE HELP

Sergeu [11.5K]

The vertical component of the initial velocity is $v_0_y = \frac{y}{t} + \frac{1}{2} gt$

The horizontal component of the initial velocity is $v_0_x = \frac{x}{t}$

The horizontal displacement when the object reaches maximum height is $X = \frac{xy}{gt^2} + \frac{x}{2}$

The given parameters;

the horizontal displacement of the object, = x

the vertical displacement of the object, = y

acceleration due to gravity, = g

time of motion, = t

The vertical component of the initial velocity is given as;

$y = v_0_yt - \frac{1}{2} gt^2\\\\v_0_yt = y + \frac{1}{2} gt^2\\\\v_0_y = \frac{y}{t} + \frac{1}{2} gt$

The horizontal component of the initial velocity is calculated as;

$x = v_0_xt\\\\v_0_x = \frac{x}{t}$

The time to reach to the maximum height is calculated as;

$T = \frac{v_f_y -v_0_y}{-g} \\\\T = \frac{-v_0_y}{-g} \\\\T = \frac{v_0_y}{g} \\\\T = \frac{1}{g} (v_0_y)\\\\T = \frac{1}{g} (\frac{y}{t} + \frac{1}{2} gt)\\\\T = \frac{y}{gt} + \frac{1}{2} t$

The horizontal displacement when the object reaches maximum height is calculated as;

$X= v_0_x \times T\\\\X= \frac{x}{t} \times (\frac{y}{gt} + \frac{1}{2} t)\\\\X = \frac{xy}{gt^2} + \frac{x}{2}$
