The Law of Superposition helps scientists to

Dima020 [189]

The law of superposition helps scientists determine the relative age of a layer of sedimentary rock. the law of superposition is <span>a basic </span>law<span> of geochronology, stating that in any undisturbed sequence of rocks deposited in layers, the youngest layer is on top and the oldest on bottom, each layer being younger than the one beneath it and older than the one above it</span> .
hope this helps :)

19) A child on a sled starts from rest at the top of a 15.0° slope. If the trip to the bottom takes 15.2 s,

sveticcg [70]

Answer: 288.8 m

Explanation:

We have the following data:

$t=15.2 s$ is the time it takes to the child to reach the bottom of the slope

$V_{o}=0$ is the initial velocity (the child started from rest)

$\theta=15\°$ is the angle of the slope

$d$ is the length of the slope

Now, the Force exerted on the sled along the ramp is:

$F=ma$ (1)

Where $m$ is the mass of the sled and $a$ its acceleration

In addition, if we draw a free body diagram of this sled, the force along the ramp will be:

$F=mg sin \theta$ (2)

Where $g=9.8 m/s^{2}$ is the acceleration due gravity

Then:

$ma=mg sin \theta$ (3)

Finding $a$ :

$a=g sin \theta$ (4)

$a=9.8 m/s^{2} sin(15\°)$ (5)

$a=2.5 m/s^{2}$ (6)

Now, we will use the following kinematic equations to find $d$ :

$V=V_{o}+at$ (7)

$V^{2}=V_{o}^{2}+2ad$ (8)

Where $V$ is the final velocity

Finding $V$ from (7):

$V=at=(2.5 m/s^{2})(15.2 s)$ (9)

$V=38 m/s$ (10)

Substituting (10) in (8):

$(38 m/s)^{2}=2(2.5 m/s^{2})d$ (11)

Finding $d$ :

$d=288.8 m$

A cylindrical storage tank has a radius of 1.35 m. When filled to a height of 3.45 m, it holds 14,014 kg of a liquid industrial

Kruka [31]

Answer:

709.93 kg/m³

Explanation:

Density: This can be defined as the ratio of the mass of a body to the volume of that body. The S.I unit of density is kg/m³

From the question above,

D = m/v.............................. Equation 1

Where D = density, m = mass, v = volume.

Note: The volume of the liquid is equal to the volume of the height occupied by the liquid in the container

Since the tank is cylindrical,

v = πr²h........................ Equation 2

Where r = radius of the the tank, h = height of the liquid in the tank

Substitute equation 2 into equation 1

D = m/(πr²h)............... Equation 3

Given: m = 14014 kg, r = 1.35 m, h = 3.45 m, π = 3.14

Substitute into equation 3

D = 14014/(3.14×1.35²×3.45)

D = 14014/19.74

D = 709.93 kg/m³

STOP TO THINK 17.1 Two pulses on a string approach each other at speeds of 1 m/s. What is the shape of the string at t = 6 s?

Vinvika [58]

'The principle of superposition states that when two disturbance occupy the same space at the same time the resulting disturbance is the sum of two disturbances.'

Explanation:

if two pulses are moving towards each other in the same medium and are not disturb by any external force they will approach each other and the point which will be the the sum of their individual displacement or more precisely the point of superposition of both pulses either constructive or destructive depending on the conditions given
