Answer: The yellow layer is definitely older than the red layer
Explanation: According to Nicolaus Steno's law of superposition and original horizontality. Older rocks underlie younger rocks.
Sedimentary rocks are usually deposited in horizontal layers in which each stratigraphic layer is laid down before another can be deposited upon it.
The red layer, in addition to being older, is also likely to have undergone intense oxidation due to earlier exposure.
Answer:
I) 420000J
ii)
Explanation:
(I) so you can use the formula for quantity of heat then substitute the values given
formula-Q=mc∆9
Answer:
0.25m/s
Explanation:
Given parameters
m₁ = 5kg
v₁ = 1.0m/s
m₂ = 15kg
v₂ = 0m/s
Unknown:
velocity after collision = ?
Solution:
Momentum before collision and after collision will be the same. For inelastic collision;
m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = v(m₁ + m₂)
Insert parameters and solve for v;
5 x 1 + 15 x 0 = v (5 + 15 )
5 = 20v
v =
= 0.25m/s
Answer:
C
Explanation:
- Let acceleration due to gravity @ massive planet be a = 30 m/s^2
- Let acceleration due to gravity @ earth be g = 30 m/s^2
Solution:
- The average time taken for the ball to cover a distance h from chin to ground with acceleration a on massive planet is:
t = v / a
t = v / 30
- The average time taken for the ball to cover a distance h from chin to ground with acceleration g on earth is:
t = v / g
t = v / 9.81
- Hence, we can see the average time taken by the ball on massive planet is less than that on earth to reach back to its initial position. Hence, option C
