This is due to the movement of the Earth: not the Sun is moving, but Earth is moving (this is what was discussed in the Heliocentic/Geocentric models in middle ages);
the Earth rotates counter-clockwise (as seen from the North Pole) which means that the points on the Earth move relative to the Sun.
Answer:
B
Explanation:
Law of faunal succession, observation that assemblages of fossil plants and animals follow or succeed each other in time in a predictable manner, even when found in different places.
Distance covered by an elevator = 310 feet.
Time taken to cover 310 feet = 10 seconds.
The rate of the elevator at its run = 310/10 = 31 feet per seconds.
We're trying to find at how many feet an elevator can travel in 12 seconds.
In order to find the distance covered by an elevator in 12 seconds, we need to multiply 12 by the rate of the elevator.
<em>Thus, distance covered by the elevator in 12 seconds = 12 × 31 </em>
= 372 feet.
Answer:
Reduces the ability of the water to hold dissolved oxygen
Explanation:
The local aquatic ecosystem can be damaged by thermal pollution, especially if it is dramatic, as in copious amounts of warm water being dumped into a chilly pond or bay or river. “Thermal shock” can kill off insects, fish, and amphibians. This sudden loss of life causes further issues with the ecosystem.
