IrinaK [193]

The reasoning which is in use when large, angular rocks are interpreted to have originated from the outcrop at the top of the hill is; Fossil succession

<h3>Fossil succession of rocks</h3>

The principle of fossil succession in characterized by the fact that fossil entities succeed one another upward through rock layers in a definite and determinable order.

On this note, any time period can be dated by its fossil content.

A sample of radium-226 will decay to ¼ of its original amount after 3200 years. What is the half-life of radium-226?
lesantik [10]
<h3><u>Answer</u>;</h3>

1600 years

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • Half life is the time taken for a radioactive isotope to decay by half of its original amount.
  • We can use the formula; N = O × (1/2)^n ; where N is the new mass, O is the original amount and n is the number of half lives.
  • A sample of radium-226 takes 3200 years to decay to 1/4 of its original amount.

Therefore;

<em>1/4 = 1 × (1/2)^n</em>

<em>1/4 = (1/2)^n </em>

<em>n = 2 </em>

Thus; <em>3200 years is equivalent to 2 half lives.</em>

<em>Hence, the half life of radium-226 is 1600 years</em>

A car is traveling north at 17.7 m/s . After 6 it’s velocity is 141 in the same direction. Find the magnitude and direction of t
Furkat [3]

By equation of motion we have   v = u + at

Where u = Initial velocity, v = final velocity, t = time taken and a = acceleration

Here v = 141 m/s, u = 17.7 m/s and t = 6 s

On substitution we will get

        141 = 17.7+ 6a

       So, a = (141-17.7)/6 = 20. 55 m/s^{2}

       Aceeleration = 20. 55 m/s^{2} along north direction.

A circuit consists of a battery connected to three resistors (65 ω, 25ω, and 170ω) in parallel. the total current through the re
White raven [17]
A. To find the total emf of the battery, just remember that in a parallel circuit, the voltage is the same throughout the circuit. So you can get the total voltage of the circuit by using Ohm's Law. 

I= \frac{V}{R}

Where:
I = current (A)
V = Voltage (V) (emf)
R = Resitance (Ω)

Now you can derive the formula of Voltage by transposing the Resistance to the other side of the equation to isolate Voltage. The formula you will now use will be:
V = IR

However, you cannot solve this yet because the resistance you need is the total resistance in the circuit. To do this, you need to get the total resistance in this parallel circuit and the formula would be:

\frac{1}{R_{T}} =  \frac{1}{R_{1}}+ \frac{1}{R_{2}}+ \frac{1}{R_{3}}...+ \frac{1}{R_{n}}

You have three resistors with the following resistance:
65Ω, 25Ω and 170Ω
\frac{1}{R_{T}} = \frac{1}{R_{1}}+ \frac{1}{R_{2}}+ \frac{1}{R_{3}}...+ \frac{1}{R_{n}}

\frac{1}{R_{T}} = \frac{1}{R_{65}}+ \frac{1}{R_{25}}+ \frac{1}{R_{170}}


\frac{1}{R_{T}} =0.0153+0.04+0.006+0.0059
\frac{1}{R_{T}} =0.0613

Get the reciprocal of both sides and divide:

R_{T} =  \frac{1}{0.0613} =16.32

The total resistance then is 16.32Ω

Now that you have the total resistance, you can solve for the total voltage:
V = IR
V = (1.8)(16.32)
V = 29.376V

The emf of the battery is 29.376V


B. To find the resistance in each resistor, just apply Ohm's law again. In a parallel circuit, the voltage is the same, but the current that runs through it is different for each resistor. Now just solve for the current of each using the same voltage.

Resistor 1: 65Ω
I= \frac{V}{R}
I= \frac{29.376}{65}
I= 0.45A

The current flowing through resistor 1 with a resistance of 65Ω is 0.45A.

Resistor 2: 25Ω
I= \frac{V}{R}
I= \frac{29.376}{25}
I= 1.18A
The current flowing through resistor 2 with a resistance of 25Ω is 1.18A.

Resistor 3: 170Ω
I= \frac{V}{R}
I= \frac{29.376}{170}
I= 0.17A

The current flowing through resistor 3 with a resistance of 170Ω is 0.17A.

If you add up all their current it confirms the given that the total current running through all of them is 1.8A.
