Give two examples from the fossil record that show evidence of change in the complexity of organisms over time.
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

Fossils tell us when organisms lived, as well as provide evidence for the progression and evolution of life on earth over millions of years.

Explanation:

As the world changes, plants and animals change with it. Aside from a few living fossils, the species we see today are very different from species that lived in the past. Thus, the fossil record can be used to show that organisms changed to meet new conditions. ... This is the result of evolution of species over time.

A satellite orbits a planet of unknown mass in a circular orbit of radius 2.3 x 104 km. The gravitational force on the satellite
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

The  kinetic energy is KE  =  7.59  *10^{10} \  J

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

       The  radius of the orbit is  r =  2.3 *10^{4} \ km  = 2.3  *10^{7} \ m

       The gravitational force is  F_g  = 6600 \ N

The kinetic energy of the satellite is mathematically represented as

       KE  =  \frac{1}{2} * mv^2

where v is the speed of the satellite which is mathematically represented as

     v  = \sqrt{\frac{G  M}{r^2} }

=>  v^2  =  \frac{GM }{r}

substituting this into the equation

      KE  =  \frac{ 1}{2} *\frac{GMm}{r}

Now the gravitational force of the planet is mathematically represented as

      F_g  = \frac{GMm}{r^2}

Where M is the mass of the planet and  m is the mass of the satellite

 Now looking at the formula for KE we see that we can represent it as

     KE  =  \frac{ 1}{2} *[\frac{GMm}{r^2}] * r

=>    KE  =  \frac{ 1}{2} *F_g * r

substituting values

       KE  =  \frac{ 1}{2} *6600 * 2.3*10^{7}

         KE  =  7.59  *10^{10} \  J

"The White Shark" allows riders to start from rest on a tube and then slide down a 44 meter slide. It takes the rider 6.2 second
Leni [432]
<span>Acceleration is the rate of change of the velocity of an object that is moving. This value is a result of all the forces that is acting on an object which is described by Newton's second law of motion. Calculations of such is straightforward, if we are given the final velocity, the initial velocity and the total time interval. However, we are not given these values. We are only left by using the kinematic equation expressed as:

d = v0t + at^2/2

We cancel the term with v0 since it is initially at rest,

d = at^2/2
44 = a(6.2)^2/2
a = 2.3 m/s^2
