A student mapped his city's geology by drawing a cross section of what he sees when looking at a plateau with exposed bedrock. After collecting samples from the different types of rock, he sent in his samples for radiometric dating to get absolute ages. The samples came back, but all the labels fell off inside the box.
Fortunately, the student knows where each sample came from in his drawing. Using the relative age dating technique, he can determine which label matches which rock. According to the law of superpositioning, sedimentary layers are horizontally deposited in a sequence where older rocks are typically on the bottom and younger rocks are on top. According to the principle of cross-cutting relationships, the rock feature that cuts through the other is younger than the one it is cutting through. If a layer affects another layer by heating it, the affected layer is older.
On the basis of the sample data presented, sample C formed approximately:
options:
0.5 million years ago
2 million years ago
40 million years ago
100 million years ago

You notice a very one-dimensional-thinking snail crawling along one rail of a railroad track. naturally, you remove it to a safer place. but before you do, you observe it as it moves from position xi = -92.9 cm to position xf = -64.9 cm along the rail, as measured from a point where one rail abuts the next. what is the snail\'s displacement δx in centimeters?

Consider a double atwood machine constructed as follows: a mass 4m is suspended from a string that passes over a massless pulley on frictionless bearings. the other end of this string supports a second similar pulley, over which passes a second string supporting a mass of 3m at one end and m at the other. using two suitable generalized coordinates, set up the lagrangian and use the lagrange equations to find the acceleration of the mass 4m when the system is released. explain why the top pulley rotates even though it carries equal weights on each side.
