The part that it played was in the changing of the environment/climate for the organisms that live on those continents. And the part it could've played was the way that the organisms had to adapt to that climate and it stayed that way over generations.
Answer:

Explanation:
we know angular velocity in terms of moment of inertia and angular speed
ω .... (1)
moment of inertia of rod rotating about its center of length b
........ .(2)
using v = ωr
where w is angular velocity
and r is radius of rod which is equal to b
so we get 2v = ωb
ω = 2v/b ................. (3)
here velocity is two time because two opposite ends are moving opposite with a velocity v so net velocity will be 2v
put second and third equation in ist equation
×
so final answer will be
