The half life of Carbon-14 is 5730 years, how many years would it take for 7/8 of the original amount to decay?
<span>Can somebody please help with this problem. I *think* I understand the basics of what a half life is. If I learned correctly, its the amount it takes for half of a sample to decay. It should also happen exponentially, 1/2 remaining after one half life, 1/4 after the second, 1/16 after the third etc. I'm still a little shaky though. Could somebody please clarify what exactly a half life is and how it can be determined (i.e. how to find the time it would take for 7/8 to decay) </span>
Answer:
Climate is determined by averaging the seasonal weather conditions for a region over a period of many ______ years

Today we can make observations that would lead us to the same conclusion as newton. If you throw a baseball in the air, it always comes back down. This is because of gravity. duh.
According to the Bernoulli's equation,the pressure difference between the wide and narrow ends of the pipe is given by
Here, 
is the velocity of water through wide ends of cylindrical pipe and 
is the velocity of water through narrow ends of cylindrical pipe.
Given, 
Now from equation continuity,
.
Here, 
and 
are cross- sectional areas of wide and narrow ends of cylindrical pipe.
As pipe is circular, so
.
At the second point, the diameter is halved, which means the radius is also halved. Therefore,
Substituting these values with the density of water is 
in pressure difference formula we get.
