Possible reasons why seascorpions went extinct

Physics

Sea scorpions or Eurypterids lived about 251.9 million years ago. They were formidable predators and hunters, but they were wiped out in the Great Permian Mass Extinction, which is also known as the Great Dying (96% of all species on Earth went extinct).The largest species like Jaekelopterus was over 7 feet long! They were mainly thought to go extinct because of a slew of natural disasters that occurred when a comet hit the Earth, as well as increased volcanic activity polluting the seas that Sea scorpions lived in, as well as rising sea temperatures. The Silurian, when these Sea scorpions proliferated was when the water was cooler, holding in more nutrients, allowing both Sea Scorpions and other animals to spread all over the world. But as the oceans became polluted from the volcanoes (and the ash they produced) and the global ocean temperatures began to rise, many animals may not have been able to cope or adapt to the extreme change, becoming helpless in their nutrient deficient water (compared to what they were used to).

I hope this helps!

Elanso [62]

Answer:

Explanation:

plate separation = 2.3 x 10⁻³ m

capacity C₁ = ε A / d

= ε A / 2.3 x 10⁻³

C₂ = ε A / 1.15 x 10⁻³

\frac{C_2}{C_1} = \frac{2.3}{1.15}

a ) when charge remains constant

energy = \frac{q^2}{2C}

q is charge and C is capacity

energy stored initially E₁= \frac{q^2}{2C_1}

energy stored finally E₂ = \frac{q^2}{2C_2}

\frac{E_1}{E_2} = \frac{C_2}{C_1} = \frac{2.3}{1.15}

E_2 = \frac{1.15}{2.3 } \times E_1

= \frac{1.15}{2.3 } \times 8.38

= 4.19 J

b )

In this case potential diff remains constant

energy of capacitor = 1/2 C V²

energy is proportional to capacity as V is constant .

\frac{E_2}{E_1} = \frac{C_2}{C_1}

\frac{E_2}{8.38} = \frac{2.3}{1.15}

E_2 = 16.76 .
