Answer:

D. 12 cm

Explanation:

A node is a point on a standing wave that does not vibrate.

The nodes of a standing wave are shown in the following sketch.

The red dots are the nodes of the standing wave.

It is observed that the distance between two adjacent nodes is half the wavelength of the wave.

Therefore, if the wavelength of the wave is 24 cm, then the distance from one node to the net must be 24 / 2 = 12 cm.

Hence, choice D is the correct answer.

A ball is dropped from a tower that is 206 m high, How long does it take to reach the ground?
Slav-nsk [51]

It will take 6.42 s for the ball that is dropped from a height of 206 m to reach the ground.

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Height (H) = 206 m

<h3>Time (t) =? </h3>

NOTE: Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s²

The time taken for the ball to get to the ground can be obtained as follow:

H = ½gt²

206 = ½ × 10 × t²

206 = 5 × t²

Divide both side by 5

t^{2}  = \frac{206}{5}\\\\ t^{2} = 41.2

Take the square root of both side

t = \sqrt{41.2}

<h3>t = 6.42 s</h3>

Therefore, it will take 6.42 s for the ball to get to the ground.

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.
