Which explanations provide support for continental drift theory? Check all that apply.
Dinosaurs lived on many continents.
Coal fields match up across continents.
Tropical plant fossils were found in Arctic areas.
Similar rock types are found across continents.
Evidence of glaciers can be found in South Africa.
Coal fields match up across continents.
Similar rock types are found across continents.
Tropical plant fossils were found in Arctic areas.
Evidence of glaciers can be found in South Africa.
<h3><u>
Explanation:</u></h3>
The way the continents on the earth shifts its position is explained by the Continental drift theory. Alfred Wegener was the one who fist proposed this theory in 1912. This theory also explains how similar rocks are formed on the different continents and also the reason why some of the animal and plant fossils looks similar.
The evidences that supports the continental drift theory can be Coal fields match up across continents. Fossils of Glossopteris supports the theory of continental drift with coal fields and coastlines
. The land features, climate changes are some of the evidences that also supports the theory of continental drift.The evidences of the glaciers that can be found in South Africa also supports the explanation of the continental drift.
<span>When the question says the ball lands a distance of 235 meters from the release point, we can assume this means the horizontal distance is 235 meters.
Let's calculate the time for the ball to fall 235 meters to the ground.
y = (1/2)gt^2
t^2 = 2y / g
t = sqrt{ 2y / g }
t = sqrt{ (2) (235 m) / (9.81 m/s^2) }
t = 6.9217 s
We can use the time t to find the horizontal speed.
v = d / t
v = 235 m / 6.9217 s
v = 33.95 m/s
Since the horizontal speed is the speed of the plane, the speed of the plane is 33.95 m/s</span>
Answer:
6.26 m/s
Explanation:
Pretty slow.... the PE (Potential Energy) at 2m will be converted to KE (Kinetic Energy) at the bottom of the track (neglecting friction)
PE = KE
mgh = 1/2 mv^2 divide both sides of the equation by 'm'
gh = 1/2 v^2 multiply both sides by 2
2 gh = v^2 take sqrt of both sides
v = sqrt ( 2gh) = sqrt ( 2*9.81*2) = 6.26 m/s
Carbon is found in the solid form in geosphere of our earth. Coal and oil are some of the examples of materials containing carbon in the geosphere. when the coal or oil is burnt, carbon dioxide is formed and released in atmosphere. This carbon dioxide is absorbed by the water of the hydrosphere with the help of algae and plankton. The water turns acidic in nature. This way carbon is transferred from geosphere to hydrosphere.
Answer:
Magnesium and Bromine
Explanation:
I just took the test, and Magnesium has 7 electrons and Bromine has 2 valance electrons making the transfer a lot easier. In the first choice, Krypton already has 8 valance electrons therefore it cannot transfer or accept any more which rules it out as a possible answer. Calcium has 2 valance electrons and Potassium has 1 meaning it couldn't make a full shell of 8 and cannot make a ionic bond. Iodine has 7 electrons as well as Chlorine which wouldn't be the answer because it would have more than 8 valance electrons.
