Answer:
8. 2.75·10^-4 s^-1
9. No, too much of the carbon-14 would have decayed for radiation to be detected.
Explanation:
8. The half-life of 42 minutes is 2520 seconds, so you have ...
1/2 = e^(-λt) = e^(-(2520 s)λ)
ln(1/2) = -(2520 s)λ
-ln(1/2)/(2520 s) = λ ≈ 2.75×10^-4 s^-1
___
9. Reference material on carbon-14 dating suggests the method is not useful for time periods greater than about 50,000 years. The half-life of C-14 is about 5730 years, so at 65 million years, about ...
6.5·10^7/5.73·10^3 ≈ 11344
half-lives will have passed. Whatever carbon 14 may have existed at the time will have decayed completely to nothing after that many half-lives.
2 someone's glasses could fall of because of the inertia
roller coaster is in motion but your glasses are opposing and resisting that motion due to inertia....
1 there is a possibility that electrons move from wheels to the rail and vice versa which also means that it is producing some kind of electrical energy
3 question can't answer
I found this using the app Socratic. When I took physics in high school it helped me so much.
Answer:
Accuracy measures how close results are to the true or known value. Precision, on the other hand, measures how close results are to one another.
Explanation:
Solution,
- Mass(m)= 60 kg
- Force (F)= 20 N
- Acceleration (a)= ?
We know that,
- F=ma
- a=F/m
- a=20/60
- a=0.333 m/s²
So, her acceleration is 0.333 m/s².
