What is the force that acts on rock to change its shape?
I believe pressure is the answer you are looking for here. Other forces that change the shape of rocks include weathering and erosion.
What is external forcing?
An external force affects structures from the outside. They are divided into 2 groups live loads and dead loads
Describe two types of stress that deform rocks?
Compression (that acts to decrease an objects volume by squashing it together), Tension (which acts to increase an objects volume by pulling it apart) and a bonus Shear which acts in opposite directions on opposite sides of an object to make the two halves slide past each other.
What natural processes destroy rocks?
Wind, rain and ice are the three main causes of erosion. Sand carried on the wind acts like sandpaper; rain penetrating into cracks can, on freezing and expanding, split rocks into smaller pieces. Rivers and streams also contribute to erosion.
What are the tree factors affecting precipitation?
basically everytghing considering how the weather acts and how the water cycle is in rotation
Why semiconductor acts as an insulator at 0K?
Because at this temperature the covalent bond become stronger which can't be broken by applying external forces(voltage).

When there is no external force acts on a system of particles the velocity of the centre of mass is?
Velocity remains constant if no external force acts.
What are external traits?
Internal Traits is how a person acts on the inside so... External traits is how a persona acts on the outside
What are examples of Objects that are distorted by external forces?
ANY object on which an external force acts will be distorted. The distortion MAY be too small to be obvious. An example would be any object resting on some surface - the force being the force of gravity.
Which radioisotope acts as an external source of ionizing radiation in the treatment of cancer?
Cobalt-60 is the radioisotope that acts as an external source of ionizing radiation in the treatment of cancer.
Why intrinsic semiconductor acts as an insulator at 0K?
room temperature instrinsic s.c as a conducter
What is external forcing?
An external force affects structures from the outside. They are divided into 2 groups live loads and dead loads
What is perpendicular forces?
Perpendicular Force is the forces that acts at right angle to the object.
What did the townshend acts of 1767 affect or tax?
external taxes.

An object at rest stays at rest until a force acts on it?
Yes. If it is at rest to start with, it will remain at rest until an external force acts on it. Likewise, an object starting in motion will remain in that same motion until an external force acts on it.
