Question
Chapter 6.6, Problem 4A
Summary Introduction
a.
To determine:
Whether the layers located near the center of the map in section 14 tend to dip towards the northwest or southwest.
Introduction:
The direction of the strata of rock is represented by the direction of the strike and dip. The strike is represented by a horizontal line and the dip is shown by the vertical line that lies in perpendicular to the strike.
Summary Introduction
b.
To determine:
Whether the rocks in section 18 dip towards east or west direction.
Introduction:
The dip found on the geologic map represents the acute angle formed by the surface of the rock with the horizontal plane. The strike represents the direction of the line which is made when the surface of the rock intersects with the horizontal plane.

- Write a scope statement for the case study The department of public works for a large city has decided to develop a Web-based pothole tracking and repair system (PHTRS). The department hired a new system analyst to analyse and design the web-based PHTRS. The analyst came up with the following description of their requirement: Citizens can log onto a website to view and make potholes report. The report contains the location and severity of potholes. As potholes are reported they are logged with a "public works department repair system" and are assigned with the given data. The recorded potholes consist of information as follows: an identifying number, stored with street address, size (on a scale of 1 to 10), location (middle, curb, etc.), district, and repair priority (determined from the size of the pothole). Further, a work order data is generated for each newly added pothole in the system. A work order is issued by an authorised PHTRS employee.
