Answer:
It is true that earth was once covered with oceans and little dry land.
Explanation:
Over the course of around four billion years, the Earth's oceans have lost about a quarter of their original mass. Today the atmosphere is rich in oxygen, which reacts with both hydrogen and deuterium to recreate water, which falls back to the Earth's surface. So the vast bulk of the water on Earth is held in a closed system that prevents the planet from gradually drying out. According to the researchers, the continents emerged relatively suddenly from an ocean that covered 95 percent of the Earth's surface. The appearance of large masses of dry land would have caused more extreme weather, changes in ocean currents and the emergence of proper seasons. In turn, these environmental changes may have led to rise in atmospheric oxygen that enabled the explosion of new life forms around 500 million years ago.
T is amount after time t
<span>Ao is initial amount </span>
<span>t is time </span>
<span>HL is half life </span>
<span>log (At) = log [ Ao x (1/2)^(t/HL) ] </span>
<span>log (At) = log Ao + log (1/2)^(t/HL) </span>
<span>log (At) = log Ao + (t/HL) x log (1/2) </span>
<span>( log At - log Ao) / log (1/2) = t / HL </span>
<span>log (At/Ao) / log (1/2) = t / HL </span>
<span>HL = t / [( log (At / Ao)) / log (1/2) ] </span>
<span>HL = 14.4 s / [ ( log (12.5 / 50) / log (1/2) ] </span>
<span>HL = 14.4 s / 2 = 7.2 seconds </span>
Answer:
C. 1 cubic foot of loose sand
Explanation:
For many objects having equal volume , surface area will be maximum
of the object which has spherical shape .
But when a sphere is broken into tiny small spheres , total surface area of all the small spheres will be more than surface area of big sphere .
Hence among the given option , surface area of loose sand will have greatest surface area . Loose sand is equivalent to small spheres .
Answer:
Salt
Explanation:
salt particles make it harder for water particles to freeze back onto the ice
ice that is in contact with dissolved salt melts faster
