The correct answer is Meteorites struck the region that Mexico now occupies.

The Cretaceous–Paleogene was a sudden mass extinction that took place approximately 66 million years ago. This event killed almost three quarter of the plants and animals species on earth. Almost all the animals were killed in this event weighing more than 25 kilograms. It was caused because of the impact of the comet and asteroid which destructed the global environment. Iridium was found in large amount in earth's crust, which is not a component of earth's crust. It is found in asteroids in huge amount.

Hence, when meteorites were not involved in the process then how come the meteorites get stuck in the region that now occupied as Mexico.

The potential energy of a 35 kg cannon ball is 14000 J. How high was the cannon ball to have this much potential energy?
Anettt [7]

From the information given, cannon ball weighs 40 kg and has a potential energy of 14000 J.

We need to find its height.

We will use the formula P.E = mgh

Therefore h = P.E / mg

where P.E is the potential energy,

m is mass in kg,  

g is acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s²)

h is the height of the object's displacement in meters.

h = P.E. / mg

h = 14000 / 40 × 9.8

h = 14000 / 392

h = 35.7

Therefore the canon ball was 35.7 meters  high.

If gravity did not affect the path of a horizontally thrown ball the ball would ____
Setler79 [48]
If gravity did not affect the path of a horizontally thrown ball the ball would eventually slow due to air resistance. If the ball were somehow thrown in a vacuum devoid of gravity and air, it would technically continue in a straight line forever.

Suppose the posted designated speed for a highway ramp is to be 30 mph and the radius of the curve is 700 ft. At what angle must
Basile [38]

Answer:

4.92°

Explanation:

The banking angle θ = tan⁻¹(v²/rg) where v = designated speed of ramp = 30 mph = 30 × 1609 m/3600 s = 13.41 m/s, r = radius of curve = 700 ft = 700 × 0.3048 m = 213.36 m and g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

Substituting the variables into the equation, we have

θ = tan⁻¹(v²/rg)

= tan⁻¹((13.41 m/s)²/[213.36 m × 9.8 m/s²])

= tan⁻¹((179.8281 m²/s)²/[2090.928 m²/s²])

= tan⁻¹(0.086)

= 4.92°
