Would you expect to find dinosaur fossils in undisturbed rocks that are above the iridium

Geography
1 answer:
MrRissso [65]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

All dinosaur fossils found by archeologists have been found a few centimeters below the iridium layer. So, the possibility of finding dinosaur fossils above the iridium layer is very slim.

Explanation:

Over 65 million years ago, dinosaurs roamed the earth but were canceled out as a result of an extraterrestrial impact on the earth's crust. Research proved that an asteroid brought the end of dinosaurs as the element iridium was found in the earth (since iridium is abundant in asteroids and not the earth's crust).

Records of fossils found have been between 13 to 60 centimeters below the iridium or the K-T boundary as it is called.

What is physical meaning of Curl of Vector function?​
artcher [175]

Answer:

In vector calculus, the curl is a vector operator that describes the infinitesimal rotation of a vector field in three-dimensional Euclidean space. At every point in the field, the curl of that point is represented by a vector. The attributes of this vector (length and direction) characterize the rotation at that point. The direction of the curl is the axis of rotation, as determined by the right-hand rule, and the magnitude of the curl is the magnitude of rotation. If the vector field represents the flow velocity of a moving fluid, then the curl is the circulation density of the fluid. A vector field whose curl is zero is called irrotational. The curl is a form of differentiation for vector fields. The corresponding form of the fundamental theorem of calculus is Stokes' theorem, which relates the surface integral of the curl of a vector field to the line integral of the vector field around the boundary curve.

The alternative terminology rotation or rotational and alternative notations rot F and ∇ × F are often used (the former especially in many European countries, the latter, using the del (or nabla) operator and the cross product, is more used in other countries) for curl F.

Unlike the gradient and divergence, curl does not generalize as simply to other dimensions; some generalizations are possible, but only in three dimensions is the geometrically defined curl of a vector field again a vector field. This is a phenomenon similar to the 3-dimensional cross product, and the connection is reflected in the notation ∇ × for the curl.

Why do you think the properties of different soils are important for growing crops?​
Julli [10]
Soil structure is important for plant growth, regulating the movement of air and water, influencing root development and affecting nutrient availability. Good quality soils are friable (crumbly) and have fine aggregates so the soil breaks up easily if you squeeze it.
