The radioisotope U-238 is primarily used in dating geologic formation. This method is used for dating sediments from either a marine or playa lake environment. Because this method is used for the period between 100,000 years and 1,200,000 years before the present, it aids in bridging the gap between the carbon-14 dating method and the potassium-argon dating method.

If an element has 10 protons and 11 neutrons and 10 electrons, which expression correctly identifies the element? Atomic numbers
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Firstly, it should be noted that atomic number (number of protons) determines element. And the element with the atomic number 10 (10 protons) is Neon. Hence, Neon-10 (₁₀Ne) is the answer.

Note that sodium has an atomic number of 11. Also, number of protons is usually equal to the number of electrons in neutral atoms, this is because the total number of positive particles (protons) must be equal to the total number of negative particles (electrons) to give a neutral atom.

A bowling ball and basketball collide, what direction do they go and how is energy transferred?
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

When the batter hits the ball, there is a force applied, and energy is transferred. The ball will move in the direction the force is pushing it. If two objects collide, energy will be transferred between both, and there will be a change in motion.
