No the law of cross cutting relates to all somewhat horizontal. The law of cross cutting is the logical assumption that a magma protrusion that cuts through horizontal layers at a diagonal or vertical is younger than the layers that it cuts through.
Sedimentary rocks are most often found in horizontal or near horizontal layers or strata. Therefore cross cutting can be used most often in the relative dating of sedimentary rocks.
However lava flows also form horizontal layers of rock. Pumice ash can be laid down in horizontal layers. A magma protrusion can also be used to relative date igneous layers of rock

Liula [17]

Answer:

The total pressure is 0,804 atm

Explanation:

We use Dalton's law according to which the sum of the partial pressures is equal to the total pressure of a gas mixture. We convert the pressure in Pascals to atmosphere (it can also be done in reverse):

101300Pa ----1 atm

4500Pa----x= (4500Pa x 1atm)/101300Pa= 0,044 atm

P total= p1 + p2= 0,76 atm + 0,044 atm=0,804 atm
