Answer:

C the Law of Superposition

Explanation:

Basically the law of Superposition is applied in this regard. The law states that "the oldest layer is on the bottom and the youngest layer is on top".

When we find fossils at a particular depth we can relatively date a rock based on the strata we find them. A fossil in place in bottom beds will be older than the one in the topmost layer. Fossils also succeed one another in a definite pattern according to the principle of fossil and fauna succession.

A small airplane has to reach a speed if 27.8 m/s to takeoff. It can accelerate at 2.00 m/s^2. What is the minimal length of run

pickupchik [31]

Using the constant acceleration formula v^2 = u^2 + 2as, we can figure out that it would take a distance of 193.21m to reach 27.8m/s

A penny rolls along the table for a distance of 1.3 meters. Jackie pushes it 40 centimeters further in the same direction.

brilliants [131]

40 meters times 1 meter over 100 centimeters equals 0.4 meters. 1.3 meters + 40 centimeters =. 1.3 m + 0.4 m = 1.7 m. The answer is 1.7 meters

Which force prevents protons from repelling each other inside a nucleus?

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

So, the correct answer is the strong nuclear force. It actually pulls together nuetrons and protons that are in the nucleus. At very tiny distances only, like those inside the nucleus, so, this strong force succeded in dealing with the electromagnetic force, and it basically stops the electrical repulsion of protons from blowing apart the nucleus.
