Answer:
Paleontologists have argued for a long time that the demise of the dinosaurs was caused by climatic alterations associated with slow changes in the positions of continents and seas resulting from plate tectonics. Off and on throughout the Cretaceous (the last period of the Mesozoic era, during which dinosaurs flourished), large shallow seas covered extensive areas of the continents. Data from diverse sources, including geochemical evidence preserved in seafloor sediments, indicate that the Late Cretaceous climate was milder than today's. The days were not too hot, nor the nights too cold. The summers were not too warm, nor the winters too frigid. The shallow seas on the continents probably buffered the temperature of the nearby air, keeping it relatively constant.
Answer:
person when the point-light walker is moving
Explanation:
A point light walker is an arrangement of dots that moves in a way that mimics a human walking. This is used in the field of Biological Motion Perception.
Biological motion perception is the science that deals with how our brain perceives motion. In order to understand how the brain perceives motion a point light walker is used.
Answer:
Explanation:
Let the volume of air be V. at atmospheric pressure, that is 10⁵ Pa
At 20 m below surface pressure will be
atmospheric pressure + hdg
10⁵ + 20 x 9.8 x 1000 = 2.96 x 10⁵Pa
At this pressure volume V becomes V/ 2.96
This volume will last 1/2.96 times time that is 60/2.96 = 20.27 minutes.
Answer:
(a) 1462.38 m/s
(b) 2068.13 m/s
Explanation:
(a)
The Kinetic energy of the atom can be given as:
K.E = (3/2)KT
where,
K = Boltzman's Constant = 1.38 x 10⁻²³ J/k
K.E = Kinetic Energy of atoms = 343 K
T = absolute temperature of atoms
The K.E is also given as:
K.E = (1/2)mv²
Comparing both equations:
(1/2)mv² = (3/2)KT
v² = 3KT/m
v = √[3KT/m]
where,
m = mass of Helium = (4 A.M.U)(1.66 X 10⁻²⁷ kg/ A.M.U) = 6.64 x 10⁻²⁷ kg
v = RMS Speed of Helium Atoms = ?
Therefore,
v = √[(3)(1.38 x 10⁻²³ J/K)(343 K)/(6.64 x 10⁻²⁷ kg)]
<u>v = 1462.38 m/s</u>
(b)
For double temperature:
T = 2 x 343 K = 686 K
all other data remains same:
v = √[(3)(1.38 x 10⁻²³ J/K)(686 K)/(6.64 x 10⁻²⁷ kg)]
<u>v = 2068.13 m/s</u>
