Index fossils are used to determine the relative ages of rock and fossils and are also used to define the boundaries between geologic periods.
<u>Option: A</u>
<u>Explanation:</u>
The fossils which are recognized as fossils guides or indicator fossils are used to classify and recognize geological or faunal periods, termed as index fossils. It must be of short vertical reach, wide geographic distribution and swift patterns in evolution. It helps to assess the rock layers ' age and helps to date other fossils found close and around them. For an instance, Ammonites were abundant in the Mesozoic period between 245 to 65 mya, they have not been found after the Cretaceous era, as they became endangered during the K-T extinction (65 mya).
First, determine the mass of the object by dividing its weight on Earth by 9.8 m/s² as shown below,
m = 250 N / 9.8 m/s² = 25.51 kg
Then, multiply the obtained mass by the acceleration due to gravity (g) on Pluto.
W (in Pluto) = (25.51 kg) x (0.61 m/s²) = 15.56 N
Therefore, the object will only weigh 15.56 N.
C Weight is the gravitational pull on an object
Answer:
4.245s
Explanation:
Given that,
Hypothetical value of speed of light in a vacuum is 18 m/s
Speed of the car, 14 m/s
Time given is 6.76 s, and we're asked to find the observed time, T
The relationship between the two times can be given as
T = t / √[1 - (v²/c²)]
The missing variable were looking for is t, and we can find it if we rearrange the formula and make t the subject
t = T / √[1 - (v²/c²)]
And now, we substitute the values and insert into the equation
t = 6.76 * √[1 - (14²/18²)]
t = 6.76 * √[1 - (196/324)]
t = 6.76 * √(1 - 0.605)
t = 6.76 * √0.395
t = 6.76 * 0.628
t = 4.245 s
Therefore, the time the driver measures for the trip is 4.245s
