Answer:

Option 2. It cuts through all the other layers

Explanation:

Newer or younger rocks are usually formed from older rocks in the sense that older rocks are broken up, and their by product materials forming together to make younger rocks.

We can simply say that older rocks basically undergo recycling to form newer rocks.

Thus, looking at the given options,

For option 1, the newer rock cannot be crumpled while the others lie flat because it is the old one that is undergoing recycling and therefore the older one is the one that will be crumpled to give way for newer rocks. So it's not true.

For option 2, since they are from older rocks, they will clearly cut through the other layers of the old one because the old one will give way for the new one.

Option 3 is not true for the same reason given for option 1.

Option 4 is not true because there is no standard way in which it will be positioned

You're driving in a car at 50 km/h and bump into a car ahead traveling at 48 km/h in the same direction. the speed of impact is
salantis [7]

To solve this problem, we must remember about the law of conservation of momentum. The initial momentum mist be equal to the final momentum, that is:

m1 v1 + m2 v2 = (m1 + m2) v’

where v’ is the speed of impact

Since we are not given the masses of each car m1 and m2, so let us assume that they are equal, such that:

m1 = m2 = m

Which makes the equation:

m v1 + m v2 = (2 m) v’

Cancelling m and substituting the v values:

50 + 48 = 2 v’

2 v’ = 98

v ‘ = 49 km/h

 

<span>The speed of impact is 49 km/h.</span>

HELPPP!!!!<br> if you double the force what is the change in acceleration
jenyasd209 [6]

As we know that acceleration is directly proportional to force, therefore as the force is doubled, acceleration gets doubled too.

15. Some people have observed that animal behavior changes just before an earthquake. What might explain this?
Ber [7]

Answer:

15: Animals are able to detect the first of an earthquake's seismic waves—the P-wave, or pressure wave, that arrives in advance of the S-wave, or secondary, shaking wave. This likely explains why animals have been seen snapping to attention, acting confused or running right before the ground starts to shake.

16: No, it is not even remotely true. Microwaves cook food from the outside in, just like a regular oven. In fact, most of the cooking on the inside of the food, depending on its thickness, is done by heat conduction from the outside surfaces inwards, as the microwaves do not actually penetrate that far into the food.
