<span>If 1 eighth equals 1 billion 7 eighth equals 7 billion.
The asker of the second question needs a tutorial in radiometric dating. There is little likelihood that the daughter isotope has the same atomic weight as the parent isotope. To measure the mass isotopes doesn't tell us how many atoms of each exist. To get around that let's pretend — which will likely serve the purpose ineptly intended — that the values give an the particle ratio, 125:875.
The original parent isotope count was 125 + 875 = 1000. The remaining parent isotope is 125/1000 or 1/8. 1/8 = (1/2)^h, where h is the number of half-lives.
h = log (1/8) ÷ log(1/2) = 3
And 3 half-lives • 150,000 years/half-life = 450,000 years.</span>
It could prevent the key from sinking because the wood would float.
It floats because it weighs less than amount of water it would have to push out of the glass if it sank. Wood, cork, and ice are all less dense than water, and they float; rocks are more dense, so they sink. A key would also be more dense causing it to sink.
Hope this helps,

No question........ ok then :)
It's basically asking for the acceleration. When an object is in free fall, the acceleration is just gravity. so in this case ∆v = 2.45 because it is the gravity on that planet.
