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!
In order to completely describe a velocity,
you need a speed and a direction.
Atmospheric refraction is the deviation of light or other electromagnetic wave from a straight line as it passes through the atmosphere due to the variation in air density as a function of height. ... Refraction not only affects visible light rays, but all electromagnetic radiation, although in varying degrees.
So in short, the answer is D.
(My answer got deleted because it didnt explain which is dumb)
The geosphere interacts with the hydrosphere when water causes rock to erode. The atmosphere provides the geosphere with heat and energy for erosion, and the geosphere reflects the sun's energy back into the atmosphere.
The angular velocity, ω=
2π/t; t = 24 hrs = 24 x 3600 seconds = 86400 s
ω = 7.27 x 10⁻⁵
v = ωr
= 7.27 x 10⁻⁵ x 3242.8 x 1.6 x 1000 (converting miles to meters)
= 377.2 m/s
