Answer: True

Explanation:

Stratigraphy is a sub- branch of geology that is concerned with the study of rock layers and layers of the sediments. These rock layers are compared with the fossils found at distinct layers of the rocks and sediments. This can help in determining the chronological age of the fossil with respect to the rocks.

Thus it can be said that the given situation is true.

A skydiver of mass 80kg jumps from a slow moving aircraft and reach a terminal speed of 50 m/s. What's her acceleration when her
miskamm [114]

Answer:

a = g = 9.81[m/s^2]

Explanation:

This problem can be solve using the second law of Newton.

We know that the forces acting over the skydiver are only his weight, and it is equal to the product of the mass by the acceleration.

m*g = m*a

where:

g = gravity = 9.81[m/s^2]

a = acceleration [m/s^2]

Note: If the skydiver will be under air resistance forces his acceleration will be different.

A penny is placed on a rotating turntable. where on the turntable does the penny require the largest centripetal force to remain
Mama L [17]

m = mass of the penny

r = distance of the penny from the center of the turntable or axis of rotation

w = angular speed of rotation of turntable

F = centripetal force experienced by the penny

centripetal force "F" experienced by the penny of "m" at distance "r" from axis of rotation is given as

F = m r w²

in the above equation , mass of penny "m"  and angular speed "w" of the turntable is same at all places. hence the centripetal force directly depends on the radius .

hence greater the distance from center , greater will be the centripetal force to remain in place.  

So at the edge of the turntable , the penny experiences largest centripetal force to remain in place.

A child throws a baseball upward with an initial velocity of 20 m/s. The child wants to throw the baseball at least as high as t
Umnica [9.8K]
When the ball starts its motion from the ground, its potential energy is zero, so all its mechanical energy is kinetic energy of the motion:
E= \frac{1}{2}mv^2
where m is the ball's mass and v its initial velocity, 20 m/s.

When the ball reaches its maximum height, h, its velocity is zero, so its mechanical energy is just gravitational potential energy:
E=mgh

for the law of conservation of energy, the initial mechanical energy must be equal to the final mechanical energy, so we have
\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = mgh
From which we find the maximum height of the ball:
h= \frac{v^2}{2g}= \frac{(20 m/s)^2}{2 \cdot 9.81 m/s^2}=20.4 m

Therefore, the answer is yes, the ball will reach the top of the tree.

A 174 pound Jimmy Cheek is riding on a 54 ft diameter Ferris Wheel. The normal force on Jimmy Cheek is 146 pounds when Jimmy is
Veronika [31]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the balance of Forces, the centripetal Force and Newton's second law.

I will also attach a free body diagram that allows a better understanding of the problem.

For there to be a balance between weight and normal strength, these two must be equivalent to the centripetal Force, therefore

F_c = W-N

m\omega^2r = W-N

Here,

m = Net mass

\omega= Angular velocity

r = Radius

W = Weight

N = Normal Force

m\omega^2r = 174-146

The net mass is equivalent to

F = mg \rightarrow m = \frac{F}{g}

Then,

m = \frac{174lb}{32.17ft/s^2}

Replacing we have then,

(\frac{174lb}{32.17ft/s^2})\omega^2 (54ft) =174lb-146lb

Solving to find the angular velocity we have,

\omega = 0.309rad/s

Therefore the angular velocity is 0.309rad/s
