Answer:

C the Law of Superposition

Explanation:

Basically the law of Superposition is applied in this regard. The law states that "the oldest layer is on the bottom and the youngest layer is on top".

When we find fossils at a particular depth we can relatively date a rock based on the strata we find them. A fossil in place in bottom beds will be older than the one in the topmost layer. Fossils also succeed one another in a definite pattern according to the principle of fossil and fauna succession.

Vesna [10]

Answer:

Tangential speed=5.4 m/s

Radial acceleration=88.6m/s^2

Explanation:

We are given that

Angular speed=2.59 rev/s

We know that

1 revolution=2\pi rad

2.59 rev=2\pi\times 2.59=5.18\pi=5.18\times 3.14=16.27 rad/s

By using \pi=3.14

Angular velocity=\omega=16.27rad/s

Distance from axis=r=0.329 m

Tangential speed=r\omega=16.27\times 0.329=5.4m/s

Radial acceleration=\frac{v^2}{r}

Radial acceleration=\frac{(5.4)^2}{0.329}=88.6m/s^2

A block weighting 400kg rests on a horizontal surface and support on top of it another block of weight 100kg placed on the top o
masha68 [24]

The horizontal force applied to the block is approximately 1,420.84 N

The known parameters;

The mass of the block, w₁ = 400 kg

The orientation of the surface on which the block rest, w₁ = Horizontal

The mass of the block placed on top of the 400 kg block, w₂ = 100 kg

The length of the string to which the block w₂ is attached, l = 6 m

The coefficient of friction between the surface, μ = 0.25

The state of the system of blocks and applied force = Equilibrium

Strategy;

Calculate the forces acting on the blocks and string

The weight of the block, W₁ = 400 kg × 9.81 m/s² = 3,924 N

The weight of the block, W₂ = 100 kg × 9.81 m/s² = 981 N

Let <em>T</em> represent the tension in the string

The upward force from the string = T × sin(θ)

sin(θ) = √(6² - 5²)/6

Therefore;

The upward force from the string = T×√(6² - 5²)/6

The frictional force = (W₂ - The upward force from the string) × μ

The frictional force, F_{f2} = (981 - T×√(6² - 5²)/6) × 0.25

The tension in the string, T = F_{f2} × cos(θ)

∴ T = (981 - T×√(6² - 5²)/6) × 0.25 × 5/6

Solving, we get;

T = \dfrac{5886}{\sqrt{6^2 - 5^2} + 28.8} \approx 183.27

Frictional \ force, F_{f2} = \left (981 -  \dfrac{5886}{\sqrt{6^2 - 5^2} + 28.8}  \times \dfrac{\sqrt{6^2 - 5^2} }{6} \times  0.25 \right) \approx 219.92

The frictional force on the block W₂, F_{f2} ≈ 219.92 N

Therefore;

The force acting the block w₁, due to w₂ F_{w2} = 219.92/0.25 ≈ 879.68

The total normal force acting on the ground, N = W₁ + \mathbf{F_{w2}}

The frictional force from the ground, \mathbf{F_{f1}} = N×μ + \mathbf{F_{f2}} = P

Where;

P = The horizontal force applied to the block

P = (W₁ + \mathbf{F_{w2}}) × μ + \mathbf{F_{f2}}

Therefore;

P = (3,924 + 879.68) × 0.25 + 219.92 ≈ 1,420.84

The horizontal force applied to the block, P ≈ 1,420.84 N

What are the conditions required for a rigid body to be in translational equilibrium?
kolezko [41]

Answer:

Explanation:

The condition for translation equilibrium is that is that the net force acting on the body must be zero.

The sum all the external forces acting on the body in horizontal as well as vertical direction must be zero.

∑Fₓ=0  and ∑Fy=0

now if the above two condition are satisfied the rigid body is said to be in  translational equilibrium.

God bless... hope this help to clear your doubt.
