The primary source of evidence proposed by many scientist to support the theory of an ancient earth is ____ dating.

1 answer:

7 0

It depends on your definition of “ancient.” Radiometric dating using Carbon-14 can reliably date back to about 50,000 years, uranium-lead or lead-lead dating can date back multiple millions, potassium-argon dating can reach 1.5 billion, and rubidium-strontium can reach 50 billion (nearly 4x the age of the universe). It depends on the context in which this question is being asked.

The greatest speed recorded by a baseball thrown by a pitcher was 162.3 km / h, obtained by Nolan Ryan in 1974. If the ball leav

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

0.96 m

Explanation:

First, convert km/h to m/s.

162.3 km/h × (1000 m/km) × (1 hr / 3600 s) = 45.08 m/s

Now find the time it takes to move 20 m horizontally.

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

20 m = (45.08 m/s) t + ½ (0 m/s²) t²

t = 0.4436 s

Finally, find how far the ball falls in that time.

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δy = (0 m/s) (0.4436 s) + ½ (-9.8 m/s²) (0.4436 s)²

Δy = -0.96 m

The ball will have fallen 0.96 meters.

Europa, a satellite of Jupiter, is believed to have a liquid ocean of water (with a possibility of life) beneath its icy surface

Goryan [66]

Answer:

so maximum velocity for walk on the surface of europa is 0.950999 m/s

Explanation:

Given data

legs of length r = 0.68 m

diameter = 3100 km

mass = 4.8×10^22 kg

to find out

maximum velocity for walk on the surface of europa

solution

first we calculate radius that is

radius = d/2 = 3100 /2 = 1550 km

radius = 1550 × 10³ m

so we calculate no maximum velocity that is

max velocity = √(gr) ...............1

here r is length of leg

we know g = GM/r² from universal gravitational law

so G we know 6.67 × $10^{-11}$ N-m²/kg²

g = 6.67 × $10^{-11}$ ( 4.8×10^22 ) / ( 1550 × 10³ )

g = 1.33 m/s²

now

we put all value in equation 1

max velocity = √(1.33 × 0.68)

max velocity = 0.950999 m/s

so maximum velocity for walk on the surface of europa is 0.950999 m/s

A hiker climbs a mountain. Starting at the base of the mountain, he first moved up 520m at a 32.0 degree angle. What is the fina

balu736 [363]

Answer:

$\displaystyle \vec{d}=$

Explanation:

<u>Displacement Vector</u>

Suppose an object is located at a position

$\displaystyle P_1(x_1,y_1)$

and then moves at another position at

$\displaystyle P_2(x_2,y_2)$

The displacement vector is directed from the first to the second position and can be found as

$\displaystyle \vec{d}=$

If the position is given as magnitude-angle data ( z , α), we can compute its rectangular components as

$\displaystyle x=z\ cos\alpha$

$\displaystyle y=z\ sin\alpha$

The question describes the situation where the initial point is the base of the mountain, where both components are zero

$\displaystyle P_1(0,0)$

The final point is given as a 520 m distance and a 32-degree angle, so

$\displaystyle x_2=520\ cos32^o= 440.99\ m$

$\displaystyle y_2=520\ sin32^o=275.6\ m$

The displacement is

$\displaystyle \vec{d}=$
