It's been a while since I've studied this, but my answers would be:

13. 5730 years. The half-life of a substance is the amount of time it takes for half of it to decay, and, according to the graph, half of the substance remained at 5730 years.

14. 10740 years. According to the graph, only 25% of the carbon remained after 10740 years.

15. 15 atoms. According to the graph, only 12.5% of the carbon remained after 16110 years. 12.5% of 120 atoms is 15 atoms.

16. 1600 atoms. According to the graph, if a sample of carbon is 10740 years old, only 25% of it remains. To find the original amount, multiply the current amount by (100% / 25%), which equals 4. So, 4. 400 atoms * 4 = 1600 atoms is the original amount.

What is the first semiconductor

English "natural philosopher" (the contemporary term for physicist) Michael Faraday is renowned for his discovery of the principles of electro-magnetic induction and electro-magnetic rotation, the interaction between electricity and magnetism that led to the development of the electric motor and generator. The unit of measurement of electrical capacitance - the farad (F) - is named in his honor. Faraday's experimental work in chemistry, which included the discovery of benzene, also led him to the first documented observation of a material that we now call a semiconductor. While investigating the effect of temperature on "sulphurette of silver" (silver sulfide) in 1833 he found that electrical conductivity increased with increasing temperature. This effect, typical of semiconductors, is the opposite of that measured in metals such as copper, where conductivity decreases as temperature is increased. In a chapter entitled "On Conducting Power Generally" in his book Experimental Researches in Electricity Faraday writes "I have lately met with an extraordinary case ... which is in direct contrast with the influence of heat upon metallic bodies ... On applying a lamp ... the conducting power rose rapidly with the heat ... On removing the lamp and allowing the heat to fall, the effects were reversed." We now understand that raising the temperature of most semiconductors increases the density of charge carriers inside them and hence their conductivity. This effect is used to make thermistors - special resistors that exhibit a decrease in electrical resistance (or an increase in conductivity) with an increase in temperature. <span> Next Milestone </span> Contemporary Documents <span> <span>Faraday, M.

A skier (m=59.0 kg) starts sliding down from the top of a ski jump with negligible friction and takes off horizontally. If h = 3
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

35.20 m

Explanation:

By the law of conservation of energy we have,

mg(H-h)=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

g(H-h)=\frac{1}{2}v^2

\Rightarrow H=\frac{v^2}{2g}+h

where m= mass of the skier, h= 3.00 m

D= horizontal distance=13.9 m

H= maximum height attained

Also, the horizontal distance covered by the skier is

D=vt

=v\frac{2g}{h}

\Rightarrow v^2=\frac{gD^2}{2h}

thus, height H in terms of D  is given by

H=\frac{D^2}{2h}+h

H=\frac{13.9^2}{2\times3}+3

H=35.20 m

What is the relationship among amplitude,crest,and trough?
Musya8 [376]
These are characteristics of a wave. The amplitude is how high and low the waves go. Crests are high points on the wave, and troughs are low points on the wave.
