YOU WILL GET BRAINLIEST Geologists can determine the relative ages of sedimentary layers by using the Law of Superposition. This

law states that sedimentary layers are youngest on the top and oldest on the bottom. However, there are two exceptions to this law. Why do some sedimentary rock layers appear in a different order than the geologic Law of Superposition?
A. People excavate sedimentary rock layers to study them.

B. Folding and faulting change the orientation of sedimentary rock layers.

C. Gravity and deposition cause sedimentary rock layers to remain horizontal.

D. Weathering and erosion change the thickness of the sedimentary rock layers.

I personally think the answer is B.
<span>"Non- horizontal rock layers were tilted or folded after they were originally deposited; this makes the law of superposition challenging to use."</span>

A marble rolls 269cm across the floor with a constant speed of in 44.1cm/s.
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

t = 6.09 seconds

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed, v = 44.1 cm/s

Distance, d = 269 cm

We need to find the time interval of the marble. Speed is distance per unit time.

v=\dfrac{d}{t}\\\\\implies t=\dfrac{d}{v}\\\\t=\dfrac{269\ \text{cm}}{44.1\ \text{cm/s}}\\\\t=6.09\ s

Hence, the time interval of the marble is 6.09 seconds.

A student at a window on the second floor of a dorm sees her physics professor walking on the sidewalk beside the building. she
klasskru [66]
Refer to the diagram shown below.

In order for the balloon to strike the professor's head, th balloon should drop by 18 - 1.7 = 16.3 m in the time at the professor takes to walk 1 m.
The time for the professor to walk 1 m is
t = (1 m)/(0.45 m/s) = 2.2222 s

The initial vertical velocity of the balloon is zero.
The vertical drop of the balloon in 2.2222 s is
h = (1/2)*(9.8 m/s²)*(2.2222 s)² = 24.197 m

Because 24.97 > 16.3, the balloon lands in front of the professor, and does not hit the professor.

The time for the balloon to hit the ground is
(1/2)*(9.8)*t² = 18
t = 1.9166 s

The time difference is 2.2222 - 1.9166 = 0.3056 s
Within this time interval, the professor travels 0.45*0.3056 = 0.175 m
Therefore the balloon falls 0.175 m in front of the professor.

Answer: 
The balloon misses the professor, and falls 0.175 m in front of the professor.
