Answer: 3.48g
Explanation:
here, we will be using conservation of momentum to solve the problem. i.e the total momentum remains unchanged, unless an external force acts on the system. We'll in thus question, there is no external force acting in the system.
Remember, momentum = mass * velocity, then
mass of blood * velocity of blood = combined mass of subject and pallet * velocity of subject and pallet
Velocity of blood = 56.5cm = 0.565m
mass of blood * 0.565 = 54kg * (0.000063/0.160)
mass of blood * 0.565 = 54 * 0.00039375
mass of blood * 0.565 = 0.001969
mass of blood = 0.00348kg
Thus, the mass of blood that leaves the heart is 3.48g
One side of the wave changes speed before the other side, causing the wave to move
Answer:
8. 2.75·10^-4 s^-1
9. No, too much of the carbon-14 would have decayed for radiation to be detected.
Explanation:
8. The half-life of 42 minutes is 2520 seconds, so you have ...
1/2 = e^(-λt) = e^(-(2520 s)λ)
ln(1/2) = -(2520 s)λ
-ln(1/2)/(2520 s) = λ ≈ 2.75×10^-4 s^-1
___
9. Reference material on carbon-14 dating suggests the method is not useful for time periods greater than about 50,000 years. The half-life of C-14 is about 5730 years, so at 65 million years, about ...
6.5·10^7/5.73·10^3 ≈ 11344
half-lives will have passed. Whatever carbon 14 may have existed at the time will have decayed completely to nothing after that many half-lives.
Answer:
Tycho Brahe
Explanation:
Tycho Brahe's accurate observations of planetary positions provided the data used by Johannes Kepler to derive his three fundamental laws of planetary motion.
