The answer is Pennsylvanian. I worked on this before. The Pennsylvanian era is a subperiod of the Carboniferous Period. i really hope this helps :)
Because it would require more energy to create elements with more protons
Incoming solar radiation is almost double at the equator then at the poles, causing the water closer to the equator to be warmer. The heat difference also causes the oceans to swirl so the water that is around the equator will eventually end up at the poles and keep circulating around.
Eₖ = √1/2 mv²
Eₖ/v² = 1/2 m
2Eₖ/v² = m
mgh = 1/2 mv²
gh = 1/2 v²
2gh = v²
v = √2gh
= √2 × 10 N/kg × 2 m
= 6.324 ms⁻¹
m = 9.8/(6424)²
= 9.8/39.993
= 0.245 g
I am not sure if it's correct.
i transposed for m in the first equation then to find the velocity I combined the potential and kinetic energy equation. there was no mass because velocity doesn't depend on the mass
Then I used earth's gravitational field strength (g) 10 N/kg and the 2 m was the height provided in the question
you can try working and see if you get the same
