You observe a distinct, red sandstone rock body about 50 m thick that is depositionally overlain by a red shale with interbedded

gypsum and you follow this boundary in the rock bodies for 1 km until you cross a fault which has displaced the boundary between the two rock bodies. You walk along the fault and see a boundary between a 50 m thick red sandstone and overlying red shale interbedded with gypsum. You conclude ________.

Answer:

The lower rocks are old while the overlying is newer.

Explanation:

  • Red sandstone is overlain by a red shale with bedded gypsum sows the age of the rocks. The boundary in the rock bodies for about 1km marks the along the fault displaced the two rocks bodies.
  • As 50 meters, thick red sandstone is found it shows the discontinuities in the rocks. The rocks formed at the bottom are oldest and with newer deposits of gypsum.

it is possible for two stars to have different temperatures and different sizes but the same luminosity. explain how.
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

Two stars (a and b) can have the same luminosity, but different surface area and temperature if the following condition is met:

(T_a^4)(R_a^2) = (T_b^4)(R_b^2)

Explanation:

The luminosity of a star is the total energy that produces in one second. It depends on the size of the star and its surface temperature.

L = σ(T^4)(4πR^2)

L is the luminosity f the star, T is the temperature of the surface of the star and R is its radius.  

Two stars can have the same luminosity if the relation between the radius and the surface temperature is maintained.  

To see this lets suposed you have 2 stars, a and b, and the luminosities of each one of them:

L_a = σ(T_a^4)(4πR_a^2)

L_b = σ(T_b^4)(4πR_b^2)

you can assume that L_a and L_b are equal:

σ(T_a^4)(4πR_a^2) = σ(T_b^4)(4πR_b^2)

Now, you can cancel the constants:

(T_a^4)(R_a^2) = (T_b^4)(R_b^2)

as long as this relation between a and b is true, then the luminosity can be the same.

Ray Of Light [21]

Sheriffs are considered the county official who are most directly responsible for providing public safety. They are the chief law enforcement officer in the district and they have both civil and criminal jurisdiction. They are also in charge of all the investigations of crimes and at the same time they are responsible for implementing court process and orders. The sheriffs and their agencies’ responsibilities differ significantly in every county. A lot of sheriffs have the tasks and duties of a police chief, yet some supervise agencies with restricted law enforcement duties. Sheriffs are usually in charge of security and managing county jails at  local government buildings.
