How would a geologist use the principle of superposition to determine the relative ages of the rocks in the grand canyon?
A geologist would use the principle of superposition in the Grand Canyon by observing that in an undisturbed sequence of sedimentary rock layers, the youngest rocks are at the top, and the oldest rocks are at the bottom. By examining the layering of rocks in the canyon walls, they can determine the relative ages of the rocks based on their position within the sequence. This allows them to create a relative chronology of the geological history of the canyon.
