The law of superposition helps scientists determine the relative age of a layer of sedimentary rock. the law of superposition is <span>a basic </span>law<span> of geochronology, stating that in any undisturbed sequence of rocks deposited in layers, the youngest layer is on top and the oldest on bottom, each layer being younger than the one beneath it and older than the one above it</span> . 
hope this helps :)

The pulley system has a mechanical advantage of 5. Determine how much input force is required to achieve 1000 N of lifting force
olga55 [171]

Answer:

Input force of pulley system = 200 N

Explanation:

Given:

Mechanical advantage of pulley system = 5

Output force from pulley system = 1,000 N

Find;

Input force of pulley system

Computation:

Mechanical advantage = Output force / Input force

Mechanical advantage of pulley system = Output force from pulley system / Input force of pulley system

5 = 1,000 / Input force of pulley system

Input force of pulley system = 1,000 / 5

Input force of pulley system = 200 N

51. Suppose you measure the terminal voltage of a 3.200-V lithium cell having an internal resistance of 5.00Ω by placing a 1.00-
Tanya [424]

Explanation:

Given that,

Terminal voltage = 3.200 V

Internal resistance r= 5.00\ \Omega

(a). We need to calculate the current

Using rule of loop

E-IR-Ir=0

I=\dfrac{E}{R+r}

Where, E = emf

R = resistance

r = internal resistance

Put the value into the formula

I=\dfrac{3.200}{1.00\times10^{3}+5.00}

I=3.184\times10^{-3}\ A

(b). We need to calculate the terminal voltage

Using formula of terminal voltage

V=E-Ir

Where, V = terminal voltage

I = current

r = internal resistance

Put the value into the formula

V=3.200-3.184\times10^{-3}\times5.00

V=3.18\ V

(c). We need to calculate the ratio of the terminal voltage of voltmeter equal to emf

\dfrac{Terminal\ voltage}{emf}=\dfrac{3.18}{3.200 }

\dfrac{Terminal\ voltage}{emf}= \dfrac{159}{160}

Hence, This is the required solution.

Block on inclined plane experience a force due to gravity of 300N straight down. If the slope is inclined at 67.8°to the horizon
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

The component of the force due to gravity perpendicular and parallel to the slope is  113.4 N and 277.8 N respectively.

Explanation:

Force is any cause capable of modifying the state of motion or rest of a body or of producing a deformation in it. Any force can be decomposed into two vectors, so that the sum of both vectors matches the vector before decomposing. The decomposition of a force into its components can be done in any direction.

Taking into account the simple trigonometric relations, such as sine, cosine and tangent, the value of their components and the value of the angle of application, then the parallel and perpendicular components will be:

  • Fparallel = F*sinα =300 N*sin 67.8° =300 N*0.926⇒ Fparallel =277.8 N
  • Fperpendicular = F*cosα =  300 N*cos 67.8° = 300 N*0.378 ⇒ Fperpendicular= 113.4 N

<u><em>The component of the force due to gravity perpendicular and parallel to the slope is  113.4 N and 277.8 N respectively.</em></u>
