Unconformities are gaps in the rock record
NemiM [27]4 years ago
6 0

Answer:

 The gaps in the rock are known as discontinuities that are basically caused by erosion. The unconformities in the rock is mainly caused by the erosion that represent the irregular line on the surface of the rock. The layer of each rock create a gap between the upper and the lower layer.  

Sometimes, the process of the over thrust can cause the gap on the surface of the rocks as the layer of the rock are set one over the another in the geological rock records.

From the top of a cliff, a person uses a slingshot to fire a pebble straight downward, which is the negative direction. The init
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

a) the acceleration is -9.8 m/s^2 (gravity's acceleration), the magnitude is 9.8 m/s^2 and the direction is downwards.

The pebble is not decelerating since the magnitude of it's speed is increasing, even if it is on a negative direction.

b) after 0.5 s the pebble is 5.725 meters down. (or -5.725m from it's initial position.)

Explanation:

a) the acceleration is given only by gravity, it's the only force acting on the pebble, the slingshot only gives the pebble an initial speed.

b) To calculate the position we use the equation

y0 + v0·t + ½·g·t² = yf

replacing:

0 + (-9.0m/s) * 0.5s + 1/2 (-9.8)*0.5² = yf

-5.725 = yf

A book falls off a shelf that and hits the ground at 10.0 m/s. How far did it fall?
ELEN [110]

Answer:

Explanation:

14 m/s

Explanation:

The motion of the book is a free fall motion, so it is an uniformly accelerated motion with constant acceleration g=9.8 m/s^2 towards the ground. Therefore we can find the final velocity by using the equation:

where

u = 0 is the initial speed

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration

d = 10.0 m is the distance covered by the book

Substituting data, we find
