The correct answer is B) Rock-forming materials are deposited in horizontal layers, though they may be tilted later.  

The option that is a correct principle of relative-age dating is "Rock-forming materials are deposited in horizontal layers, though they may be tilted later."

When using relative dating, scientists consider six principles to determine the relative age of the formation. These are the Principle of Superposition, the Principle of Original Horizontality, the Principle of Lateral Continuity, the Principle of Cross Continuity, the Principle of Inclusions, and the Principle of Fossil Succession.

Which of these would not contribute to a global increase in temperature?
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

planting trees - increasing the amount of animal life on earth

Explanation:

from all the other options given, all except planting trees will increase global temperature.

1. deforestation: this removes vegetative cover and the amount of oxygen in the atmosphere.

2. increasing the use of gasoline burning vehicles: burning gasoline produces carbon dioxide which is a green house gas which traps heat in the atmosphere and causes global warming

3. increasing the industrial release of carbon dioxide: carbon dioxide is released when gasoline is burned in industries, this in-turn causes global warming.

Trees produces oxygen and sucks in carbon dioxide which causes global warming. more trees mean more oxygen and less carbon dioxide which translates to less global increase in temperature

Define speed and what is it’s SI unit.
Nadusha1986 [10]
Speed can be thought of as the rate at which an object covers distance. ... Speed has the dimensions of distance divided by time. The SI unit of speed is the metre per second, but the most common unit of speed in everyday usage is the kilometre per hour or, in the US and the UK, miles per hour........?

How could I tell if an egg is hard boiled or raw explain using Newton's law of motion
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Newton's 2 nd law of motion tells that when equal torque is applied on object having higher moment of inertia , it will rotate slower .

Moment of inertia of boiled egg is higher because the whole egg rotates as s solid unit . Hence it will rotate slower or it rolls slower on an inclined surface .

In this way by applying Newton's law , we can identify raw or boiled egg .

Joseph jogs from one end A to the other end B of a straight 300 m road in 2 minutes 30 seconds and then turns around and jogs 10
Tema [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

(a) It is given that Joseph jogs on a straight road of 300m in a time interval of 2 minutes and 30 seconds, which is equal to 150seconds. Therefore, when Joseph jogs from point A to point B, he covers a distance of 300m in time of 150seconds. Hence, his average speed is 300m/150s=2ms^−1. Since it is a straight road and he jogs in a single direction in this case, his displacement is equal to 300m. Since it is a straight road and he jogs in a single direction in this case, his displacement is equal to 300m.

Hence, his average velocity is 300m/150s=2ms^−1

(b) Then it is given that he turns back and points B and jogs on the same road but in the opposite direction for a time interval for 1 minute and covers a distance of 100m.If we consider the whole motion of Joseph, i.e. from point A to point C, then he covers a total distance of 300m+100m=400m. And he covers this total distance in a time interval of 2.5min+1min=3.5min=210s.

Therefore, his average speed for this journey is 400m210s=1.9ms−1.

For the same journey is displacement is equal to the distance between the points A and C,i.e. 300m−100m=200m.

Hence, his average velocity for this case is 200m/210s=0.95ms^−1

For high and low tides differences would they be caused by the moon and how?
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]
The moon has a small amount of gravity. Low tides mean the moon is not pulling on the water. High tides mean that the moon is pulling on the water.
