Answer:

0.0102 g

Step-by-step explanation: A common formula for determining the amount of sample remaining in terms of its half-life is

where

t = 50 000 yr

      Calculate n

n = 50 000/5730

n = 8.726

N₀ = 4.30 g                       Calculate N

N = 4.30 × 2.36 × 10⁻³

N₀ = 0.0102 g please mark me brainliest

A boat leaves a.M. Marina at 7 AM traveling at 3.4 knots bearing is N38°E the boat docks on an island at 2pm how far north of th
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

The distance between the docks & island is 44.07 km.

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed of the boat S = 3.4 knot = 6.3 \frac{km}{hr}

Time taken by bot to reach the island = 7 hr

We know that the distance is given by

Distance = Speed × Time

Put all the values in above equation we get

D = 6.3 × 7

D = 44.07 km

Therefore the distance between the docks & island is 44.07 km.

A pyramid has a surface area of 539 ft.² what is the surface area of a similar pyramid that is smaller by a scale Factor of 1/7
Nataly [62]

Answer:

77 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Surface Area of larger pyramid = 539 ft²

Scale factor of the smaller pyramid = 1/7

Tbe surface area of the smaller pyramid will be :

Scale factor * surface area

1/7 * 539ft²

= 539 ft² / 7

= 77 ft²

Tom starts at point A and then walk 3km east to point B and then walks 4km north to point C calculate the bearings and distance
sergejj [24]

Answer:

5km

Step-by-step explanation:

Please check the attached image for a diagram explaining this question

The distance from A to C can be determined using Pythagoras theorem

The Pythagoras theorem : a² + b² = c²

where a = length

b = base

c =  hypotenuse

3² + 4²

= 16 + 9

= 25

determine the square root of 25

√25 = 5km
