Scientists find trilobites during a routine dig. Trilobites were common in the Paleozoic Era (540 to 245 million years ago) and
kifflom [539]

Answer:

A and C

Explanation:

The rock layers must have formed at different times because they contain two different biozones. The rock layer containing the trilobites must have formed before the one containing the ammonites. The key thing to note here is that the Trilobites only lived from 540 to 248 million years ago. And that the Ammonites were from 245 to 65 million years ago. So there's a 3 million year gap between these 2 different creatures where neither of them existed. So the dig where the trilobites were found has to be at least 3 million years older than the dig where the Ammonites were found. So with that in mind, let's look at the options and see what makes sense.

The rock layers must have formed at the same time because they both contain biozones. * This is nonsense no matter what dates you're speaking of. In effect it claims that all rocks that indicate life were created at the same time. So this is definitely a bad choice.

The rock layers must have formed at different times because they contain two different biozones. * This is technically incorrect since it assumes that all biozones represent an unique period of time which is incorrect. However, since the biozones represented by the presence of Trilobites and Ammonites don't overlap, it is true that these these rock layers were formed at different times. I would have preferred if this option said "non overlapping biozones". But on the balance, I'd consider this option to be true, so it should be selected.

The rock layer containing the trilobites must have formed before the one containing the ammonites. * This is definitely true since the last Trilobite died about 3 million years before the first Ammonite lived. So this is a correct choice.

The rock layer containing the trilobites must have formed after the one containing the ammonites.

* This is the opposite of the previous option. And since the previous option was true, this option must be false. So this is a bad choice

A 1.5 kg book is lifted 2.0 m from floor .how much potential energy is acquired by the book?
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

A. 29.4 Joules

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the book  = 1.5kg

Height of lift = 2m

Unknown:

Potential energy acquired  = ?

Solution:

Potential energy is the energy due to the position of a body.

Mathematically;

       Potential energy  = mgh

m is the mass of the body

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²

h is the height

     Potential energy  = 1.5 x 9.8 x 2

     Potential energy  = 29.4J

How does altitude impact atmospheric pressure? As altitude decreases, atmospheric pressure decreases As altitude increases, atmo
Tasya [4]

Answer: As altitude increases, atmospheric pressure decreases

Explanation:

Atmospheric pressure P is defined as the force F per unit area S the air that forms the atmosphere exerts on the Earth's surface:

P=\frac{F}{S}

It should be noted that as the altitude increases less air is above and, therefore the air weights less. This is because the atmosphere losses density as we ascend, causing less air.

However, it is important to point out this decrease in pressure is not linear, since at the beginning (in the first kilometers above sea level) it reduces more rapidly than in the next kilometers above. That is why this relationship between atmospheric pressure and altitude is exponential.
