Answer: The fault is younger than the layers of rock, according to the law of crosscutting.

Explanation:

Then Law of Crosscutting which was described by James Hutton explains that whenever a fault is seen on a rock, the fault will always be younger than the rock it is one.

This makes sense because if there was no rock in the first place, the fault would not have cut through it. But because there was a rock and an object exacted a force in order to move through the rock, the fault appeared showing that the rock came first, then came the fault.

If the length, width, and height of a box are 10.00 cm, 7.25 cm and 3.00 cm, respectively, what is the volume of the box in unit

Blizzard [7]

Answer:

For a: The volume of the box is 217.5 mL

For b: The volume of the box is 0.2175 L

Explanation:

The box is a type of cuboid.

To calculate the volume of cuboid, we use the equation:

$V=lbh$

where,

V = volume of cuboid

l = length of cuboid = 10.00 cm

b = breadth of cuboid = 7.25 cm

h = height of cuboid = 3.00 cm

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$V=10.00\times 7.25\times 3.00=217.5cm^3$

For a:

To convert the volume of cuboid into milliliters, we use the conversion factor:

$1mL=1cm^3$

So,

$\Rightarrow 217.5cm^3\times (\frac{1mL}{1cm^3})\\\\\Rightarrow 217.5mL$

Hence, the volume of the box is 217.5 mL

For b:

To convert the volume of cuboid into liters, we use the conversion factor:

$1L=1000cm^3$

So,

$\Rightarrow 217.5cm^3\times (\frac{1L}{1000cm^3})\\\\\Rightarrow 0.2175L$

Hence, the volume of the box is 0.2175 L

This year course engages students in becoming skilled readers of prose written in a variety of periods, disciplines, and

rhetorical contexts and in becoming skilled writers who compose for a variety of purposes. More immediately, the course

prepares the students to perform satisfactorily on the A.P. Examination in Language and Composition given in the spring.

Both their writing and their reading should make students aware of the interactions among a writer’s purposes, audience

expectations, and subjects as well as the way generic conventions and the resources of language contribute to effectiveness

in writing. Students will learn and practice the expository, analytical, and argumentative writing that forms the basis of

academic and professional writing; they will learn to read complex texts with understanding and to write prose of

sufficient richness and complexity to communicate effectively with mature readers. Readings will be selected primarily,

but not exclusively, from American writers. Students who enroll in the class will take the AP examination.
