- The Orosirian Period ( /ˌɒroʊˈsɪəriən/; Ancient Greek: ὀροσειρά, romanized: oroseirá, meaning “mountain range”) is the third geologic period in the Paleoproterozoic Era and lasted from 2050 Mya to 1800 Mya (million years ago). Instead of being based on stratigraphy, these dates are defined chronometrically.
- Derivative (Wikipedia)
In mathematics, the derivative shows the sensitivity of change of a function’s output with respect to the input. Derivatives are a fundamental tool of calculus. For example, the derivative of the position of a moving object with respect to time is the object’s velocity: this measures how quickly the position of the object changes when time advances.
