Answer:
Answer: It takes 5,730 years for half the carbon-14 to change to nitrogen; this is the half-life of carbon-14. After another 5,730 years only one-quarter of the original carbon-14 will remain
Answer: C
Explanation:
Find the acceleration using this kinematic equation:
Now use this kinematic equation to find the displacement:
Answer:
Explanation:
a ) work done by gravitational force
= mg sinθ ( d + .21)
Potential energy stored in compressed spring
= 1/2 k x²
= .5 x 431 x ( .21 )²
= 9.5
According to conservation of energy
mg sinθ ( d + .21) = 9.5
3.2 x 9.8 x sin 30( d + .21 ) = 9.5
d = 40 cm
b )
As long as mg sin30 is greater than kx ( restoring force ) , there will be acceleration in the block.
mg sin30 = kx
3.2 x 9.8 x .5 = 431 x
x = 3.63 cm
When there is compression of 3.63 cm in the spring , block will have maximum velocity. there after its speed will start decreasing.
