<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
Carbon-14 levels in a sample are undetectable after approximately 9 half lives
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
- <em><u>The half life of Carbon-14 is 5,730 years . Half life is the time taken by a radioactive material to decay by half of its original mass. Therefore, it would take a time of 5730 years for a sample of 100 g of carbon-14 to decay to 50 grams</u></em>
- <em><u>A period of 50,000 years, is equivalent to; </u></em>
<em><u> 50,000÷5,730 </u></em>
<em><u>= 8.73 half lives</u></em>
<em>Which is approximately equal to 9 half lives.</em>
- Therefore, if the age of an object older than 50,000 years cannot be determined by radiocarbon dating, then <em><u>Carbon-14 levels in a sample are undetectable after approximately 9 half lives</u></em>.

Answer:
the one with a higher mass
Explanation:
The body with more mass will have the greater kinetic energy of the two.
Kinetic energy is the energy due to the motion of body. It is mathematically expressed as:
K.E =
m v²
m is the mass
v is the velocity
Since the velocity of the two bodies are the same, and mass is directly proportional to kinetic energy, the body with more mass will have a higher kinetic energy.
So between mass m1 and mass m2, the one with a greater mass will have a higher kinetic energy
