From reliable sources in the internet, the half-live of carbon-14 is given to be 5,730 years. In a span of 10,000 to 12,000 years, there are almost or little more than 2 half-lives. Thus, there should be
                                           A(t) = A(0)(1/2)^t
where t is the number of half-lives, in this case 2. Thus, only about 1/4 of the original amount will be left.

Anestetic [448]
I think the correct answer is the third statement, electron from escaping from the tube containing the triode. The negative charge on the grid repels any electron in the tube. As a result,the flow of current is controlled. If the field is that strong, all current flow will stop resulting to maintaining the electron cloud in the tube.

In comparing sunspots to other areas of the sun's surface one can say that sunspots are...?
taurus [48]

Answer:

D. Cooler

Explanation:

The Sun's surface has a temperature ranging from 6 000 Kelvin, thus it is very hot. The radioactive reaction in the core of the Sun is a nuclear fusion reaction. This reaction ensures continuous release of high energy from the surface of the Sun.

But during the reaction, some parts becomes cooler than other parts on its surface. Which is due to the release of high amount of energy into space. The Sun's spot can be found in the cooler part of the Sun.

jet is flying at 500 mph east relative to the ground. A Cessna is flying at 150 mph 60° north of west relative to the ground. Wh
Greeley [361]

Answer:

C. 590 mph

\vert v_{cj}\vert=589.49\ mph

Explanation:

Given:

  • velocity of jet, v_j=500\ mph
  • direction of velocity of jet, east relative to the ground
  • velocity of Cessna, v_c=150\ mph
  • direction of velocity of Cessna, 60° north of west

Taking the x-axis alignment towards east and hence we have the velocity vector of the jet as reference.

Refer the attached schematic.

So,

\vec v_j=500\ \hat i\ mph

&

\vec v_c=150\times (\cos120\ \hat i+\sin120\ \hat j)

\vec v_c=-75\ \hat i+75\sqrt{3}\ \hat j\ mph

Now the vector of relative velocity of Cessna with respect to jet:

\vec v_{cj}=\vec v_j-\vec v_c

\vec v_{cj}=500\ \hat i-(-75\ \hat i+75\sqrt{3}\ \hat j )

\vec v_{cj}=575\ \hat i-75\sqrt{3}\ \hat j\ mph

Now the magnitude of this velocity:

\vert v_{cj}\vert=\sqrt{(575)^2+(75\sqrt{3} )^2}

\vert v_{cj}\vert=589.49\ mph is the relative velocity of Cessna with respect to the jet.

The various contributions involved till the chapati is made is given below.

<h3>What is food?</h3>

The substance that we intake for the body to charge up by giving nutrients is called the food.

Wheat is a staple food. We make chapati from flour obtained from the wheat grains.

The various contributions involved till the chapati is made is given below.

                 Take required amount of atta in a container

                                                     ↓

                    Add water accordingly to form a dough

                                                     ↓

                 Apply oil to make dough smooth for long time

                                                    ↓

        Take small dough, make it a ball shaped and apply dry flour

                                                    ↓

               Roll it using rolling pin on the chapati maker plate

                                                    ↓

      After making it circular or any shape you want, place it on hot tawa

                                                    ↓

                               Bake it on both the sides

                                                   ↓

                                      Chapati is ready

Thus, the flow chart is made.
