<h2>FAULT</h2>

The principle of cross-cutting relationships states that a fault or intrusion is younger than the rocks that it cuts. The fault labeled 'E' cuts through all three sedimentary rock layers (A, B, and C) and also cuts through the intrusion (D). So the fault must be the youngest formation that is seen.

Answer: The principle of cross-cutting relationships states that a fault or intrusion is younger than the rocks that it cuts through. The fault cuts through all three sedimentary rock layers (A, B, and C) and also the intrusion (D). So the fault must be the youngest feature.

Virty [35]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 29,400 \ Joules}}$

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy is the energy an object possesses due to its position. It is the product of mass, height, and acceleration due to gravity.

$E_P= m \times g \times h$

The object has a mass of 150 kilograms and is raised to a height of 20 meters. Since this is on Earth, the acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 meters per square second.

m= 150 kg
g= 9.8 m/s²
h= 20 m

Substitute the values into the formula.

$E_p= 150 \ kg \times 9.8 \ m/s^2 \times 20 \ m$

Multiply the three numbers and their units together.

$E_p=1470 \ kg*m/s^2 \times 20 m$

$E_p=29400 \ kg*m^2/s^2$

Convert the units.

1 kilogram meter square per second squared (1 kg *m²/s²) is equal to 1 Joule (J). Our answer of 29,400 kg*m²/s² is equal to 29,400 Joules.

$E_p= 29,400 \ J$

The crate has 29,400 Joules of potential energy.

Can someone who knows how to do physics please answer this

Serhud [2]

Answer:

about 3.17647 hours

Explanation:

The appropriate relation is ...

time = distance/speed

time = (270 km)/(85 km/h) = 3 3/17 h ≈ 3.17647 h

It will take Derek about 3.17647 hours to drive the distance.

Calculate the amount of work done if you use a 100N force to push a 50kg box 5m across the kitchen floor.

irinina [24]

So if the formula for work is force times displacement times cosine(theta), you'd plug in the numbers

100x5 (since there's no angle in the problem, cosine(theta) isn't used

100x5 = 500

So the answer would be B.

Hope that helps!
