Explanation:

The forces acting on the rock include Normal Force, Gravitational force & Friction force

It's possible for it to stay on the boulder because the normal force balances it's weight. also because static friction acts on the boulder up to it's limiting friction even if it were on an attempt to move as a result of air resistance. gravitational forces act upon it by mainly affecting it it's weight. as altitude increases, it's weight decreases since gravity varies from a height to another.

Which formation is one feature of karst topography?
steposvetlana [31]
Karst is a topography formed from the dissolution of soluble rocks such as limestone, dolomite, and gypsum. It is characterized by underground drainage systems with sinkholes and caves. It has also been documented for more weathering- resistant rocks, such as quartzite, given the right conditions.

A proton in a cyclotron is moving with a speed of 2.97×107 m/s in a circle of radius 0.568 m. 1.67 × 10−27 kg is the mass of the
vivado [14]

Answer:

B = 0.546 T,  F = 2.59 10⁻¹² N

Explanation:

The magnetic force is

            F = q v x B

We can calculate the magnitude of the force and find the direction by the right hand rule

          F = q v B sin θ

Let's use Newton's second law

         F = m a

Acceleration is centripetal

         a = v² / r

We substitute

       q v B sin θ = m v² / r

The angle between the field and the radius of the circle is 90º so sin 90 = 1

        q B = m v / r

        B = m v / q r

Let's calculate ’

       B = 1.67 10⁻²⁷ 2.97 10⁷ / (1.60 10⁻¹⁹ 0.568)

        B = 0.546 T

The foce is

         F = q v B

         F = 1.60 10⁻¹⁹ 2.97 10⁷ 0.546

         F = 2.59 10⁻¹² N
