What is the definition of Rock Strata and Law of Original Horizontality?

1 answer:

3 0

It's called the Principle of Original Horizontality
 it just means what it sounds like: that all rock layers were originally horizontal.
Of course, it only applies to sedimentary rocks.
Recall that sedimentary rock is composed of sediments, which are deposited and compacted in one place over time.

5. The analytical method of adding vectors expressed in terms of their components may be applied to vectors in three dimensions,

Gwar [14]

Answer:

C = 17 i^ - 7 j^ + 16 k^ , | C| = 24.37

Explanation:

To work the vactor component method, we add the sum in each axis

C = A + B = (Aₓ + Bₓ) i ^ + ( $A_{y}$ + $B_{y}$ ) i ^ + ( $A_{z}$ + $B_{z}$ ) k ^

Cₓ = 12+ 5 = 17

$C_{y}$ = -37 +30 = -7

$C_{z}$ = 58 -42 = 16

Resulting vector

C = 17 i ^ - 7j ^ + 16k ^

The mangitude of the vector is

| C | = √ c²

| C | = √( 17² + 7² + 16²)

| C| = 24.37

What does activation energy has to do with a chemical reaction.

asambeis [7]

Explanation:

Activation energy and reaction rate

The activation energy of a chemical reaction is closely related to its rate. Specifically, the higher the activation energy, the slower the chemical reaction will be. ... The released energy helps other fuel molecules get over the energy barrier as well, leading to a chain reaction.

A 1.60 m cylindrical rod of diameter 0.550 cm is connected to a power supply that maintains a constant potential difference of 1

bija089 [108]

Answer:

Part a)

$\rho = 1.35 \times 10^{-5}$

Part b)

$\alpha = 1.12 \times 10^{-3}$

Explanation:

Part a)

Length of the rod is 1.60 m

diameter = 0.550 cm

now if the current in the ammeter is given as

$i = 18.7 A$

V = 17.0 volts

now we will have

$V = I R$

$17.0 = 18.7 R$

R = 0.91 ohm

now we know that

$R = \rho \frac{L}{A}$

$0.91 = \rho \frac{1.60}{\pi(0.275\times 10^{-2})^2}$

$\rho = 1.35 \times 10^{-5}$

Part b)

Now at higher temperature we have

$V = I R$

$17.0 = 17.3 R$

R = 0.98 ohm

now we know that

$R = \rho \frac{L}{A}$

$0.98 = \rho' \frac{1.60}{\pi(0.275\times 10^{-2})^2}$

$\rho' = 1.46 \times 10^{-5}$

so we will have

$\rho' = \rho(1 + \alpha \Delta T)$

$1.46 \times 10^{-5} = 1.35 \times 10^{-5}(1 + \alpha (92 - 20))$

$\alpha = 1.12 \times 10^{-3}$

Answer:

Part a)

$i = 1.55 A$

Part b)

$v_d = 1.4 \times 10^{-4} m/s$

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that current density is defined as

$j = \frac{i}{A}$

now we have

$i = jA$

Now we have

$j = 1.90 \times 10^6 A/m^2$

$A = \pi(\frac{1.02 \times 10^{-3}}{2})^2$

so we will have

$i = 1.55 A$

Part b)

now we have

$j = nev_d$

so we have

$n = 8.5 \times 10^{28}$

$e = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} C$

so we have

$1.90 \times 10^6 = (8.5 \times 10^{28})(1.6 \times 10^{-19})v_d$

$v_d = 1.4 \times 10^{-4} m/s$
