Answer:

By a factor of 1/4.

Explanation:

The impulse force that applies to an object undergoing rapid deceleration just before coming to a stop on the ground is given by the following formula,

\\\begin{aligned}\\\small F &=\small \frac{\Delta (mV)}{\Delta T}\end{aligned}

in which \small \Delta (mV) , \small \Delta t represent the change in momentum and the time taken for that change.

If one increases the time that is taken for the momentum change (which remains constant for this situation) by a factor 4 and if that new force is represented by \small F_1, the following manipulation confirms the answer to this question.

\begin{aligned}\\\small F_1 &=\small \frac{\Delta (mV)}{4\Delta t}\\\\&=\small \frac{1}{4}\times\bigg[\frac{\Delta (mV)}{\Delta t}\bigg]\\\\&=\small \frac{1}{4}F\end{aligned}

Here \small F is the force that was applied to the object previously.

The table represents the speed of a car in a northern direction over several seconds. A 2-column table with 5 rows. The first co
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

Column 1 should be titled “Time,” and Column 2 should be titled

“Velocity.” ⇒ 1st answer

Explanation:

* <em>Lets revise some definitions of graphs</em>

A velocity-time graph represents the speed and direction an object

travels over a period of time.

Velocity-time graph is called speed-time graph.

The vertical axis of a velocity-time graph represents the velocity of the

object and horizontal axis represents the time from the initial position

In an acceleration time graph y-axis represents the acceleration, and

x-axis represents the time

The table represents the <em>speed of a car in a northern</em> direction over

several seconds

That means the data in the table represent the <em>velocity</em> of the car in a

certain time

Time (s)             Velocity (m/s)  

   0                            5

   2                            10

   4                            15

   6                            20

   8                            25

   10                           30

Column 1 would be on the x-axis

x-axis represents the time

Column 2 would be on the y-axis

y-axis represents the velocity

Column 1 should be titled “Time,” and Column 2 should be titled

“Velocity.”

1) Archeologists have found fossil remains of some of the first land
dimaraw [331]

Answer: Carbon 14 and Uranium 238 are not used together to determine fossil ages.

Explanation:

Carbon 14 with a half life of 5,700 years can only be used to date fossils of approximately 50,000 years. Most fossils are thought to be much older than 50,000 years. Also most fossils no longer contain any Carbon. The fossilized remains have been mineralized where the original organic material has been replaced and turned into stones containing no carbon.

Uranium 238 has a half life of 4.5 billion years. Uranium can be used to date the age of the earth. If 50% of pure uranium' is left in a sample the sample is assumed to be 4.5 billion years old.( This is assuming that the original sample was 100% uranium and no Uranium 238 has been eroded or lost in 4.5 billion years old. If a fossil has only 25 % of the Uranium 238 the sample has an estimated age of 3.2 Billion years. This would be the estimated age of the earliest life or formation of fossils.

Note no fossils contain Uranium 238. Uranium 238 is only found in igneous or volcanic rocks. So no fossils can be dated directly using U 238.

Because of the huge differences in the half lives of Carbon 14 and Uranium238 they cannot be used together. Carbon 14 can only be used to date fossils of a very recent age. Uranium 238 can only be used to date volcanic rocks of a very old age.

How can humans increase the rate of endangered of extinct species
labwork [276]

I would think A. Reduce Environmental Impacts.

If you build and populate more zoos, some of the endangered species might not be able to survive in captivity

If you introduce new predators they are going to kill all the endangered species and if you pass new laws about land use some people may kill the species
