On the geological maps in question, the cratonic basins that contain thick sequences of sedimentary rocks which overly the Precambrian basement, show the <em><u>youngest rocks</u></em> toward the center of the basin.

Geological maps are tools created and used by scientists to show the arrangement of the geological elements of a specific area. This can include:

  • Rock types
  • Cracks and faults
  • Minerals
  • Groundwater
  • Ages

and much more, depending on the area and detail of the map created.

On a detailed geo-map, we can understand not only the area we are initially standing on but also where to find geological areas with similar sediment compositions and information on the age of the rocks. This is done due to the way the map stacks the units in terms of age, from the <u>youngest </u>at the <em><u>top </u></em>to the <u>oldest </u>at the <em><u>bottom</u></em>.

Cratonic basins are areas where geological elements are widely distributed and often filled with <u>shallow water </u>as well as <u>sedimentary rocks</u>. The rocks at the center of these basins show the <em><u>youngest</u></em> <em><u>rocks </u></em>at the center due to the previously mentioned <u>aging sequence </u>used by the <u>maps</u>.

World oil reserves amount to about 10,000 EJ, and humankind uses energy at the rate of roughly 18 TW. If all our energy came fro
Volgvan

Answer:

t=17.61 years.

Explanation:

Given that

Reserve of energy = 10,000 EJ

Energy used by human = 18 TW

We know that

1\ E= 10^{18}

1\ T= 10^{12}

So

Reserve\ of\ energy = 10,000 \times10^{18} J

Reserve\ of\ energy = 10^{22} J

Energy\ used\ by\ human = 18 \times10^{12}\ W

Lets t time after energy will be  exhaust

So

18 \times10^{12}\times t=10^{22}

t=\dfrac{10^{22}}{18 \times10^{12}}\ s

t=5.55\times 10^8 \ s

We know that

1 year = 365 days

1 year = 365 x 24 hr

1 year = 365 x 24 x 3600 s

1year =3.15\times 10^7\ s

So

t=\dfrac{5.55\times 10^8 }{3.15\times 10^7}

t=17.61 years.
