b. nonconformity
c. angular unconformity

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: The type of unconformity exists between two horizontal rock layers if the older rock is much older than the younger rock is : Angular Unconformity.
The sedimentary in this interaction created some sort of angular discordance with the overlying horizontal layers

How do you determine the half-life of a radioactive parent isotope based on a decay curve?

Answers


If you have the curve on a graph, then it should be easy.

-- Pick any level on the y-axis, like a level that's marked with a
       horizontal grid line.
   Find the point on the graph where it crosses that level.
   From that point, look down on the x-axis and find the time at that point.

-- On the y-axis, find the level that's 1/2 of the first one.
   Find the point on the graph where it crosses this new level.
   From this new point, look down on the x-axis and find the time.
  
-- The time interval between the two points is the half-life of that isotope.

You are getting ready to go for a hike on a summer day. You check the barograph and discover that the pressure tendency has been rising for several hours. Based on this information, what gear should you be sure to pack for your hike?a) snowshoes
b) sunscreen
c) a rain jacket
d) a helmet

Answers

Answer:

b) sunscreen

Explanation:

    Most important for understanding atmospheric pressure is knowledge of the variations it is subjected to under the influence of various factors.

    When we have an atmospheric pressure higher than 1013 Mb or hPa (high pressure or anticyclone) it is why the air is heavier, coming down colder and drier and gives us a good clue to say we can have a good time and / or cold.

    The centers of high atmospheric pressure generate divergent air movement out of the center and also subsident (top to bottom) causing the air to become drier. High pressure plays the opposite role of low pressure: it dries the air, decreases cloudiness and conditions for rain.
you would need to pack, b) sunscreen.

in △ABC, D is a point on side AC¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ such that BD=DC and ∠BCD measures 70∘. What is the degree measure of ∠ADB?

Answers

BD=DC => △BCD is an isosceles triangle => ∠BCD=∠DBC=70°.
Sum of the degrees measures in a triangle = 180° =>
180=∠BCD+∠DBC+∠CDB;
180=70+70+∠BCD
∠BCD=40°

∠ADB and ∠BCD are adjacent => 
∠ADB+∠BCD=180
∠ADB+40=180
∠ADB=140°

A positively charged subatomic particle in the nucleus of an atomAtom
Protons
Electrons
Neutrons
Electrical charge

Answers

Answer:

The positively charged subatomic particle in the nucleus of an atom is the proton.

Explanation:

Atom; is not correct because it is not a subatomic particle, but instead, those particles are part of it.

Protons; is correct because they are the subatomic particles that are positively charged.

Electrons; is not correct because they are subatomic particles that have a negative charge.

Neutrons; is not correct because they are subatomic particles that have no charge,

Electrical charge; is not correct because it is not a subatomic particle, and it developes from the interaction of them.
