How do social forces shape technology

Chemistry
1 answer:
Pie3 years ago
8 0
Social forces shape technology both in the form of deliberate social activism and also in unconscious ways. For example, in social activism, large demonstrations against oil pipelines can lead to more rapid development of alternatives to fossil fuels. Somewhat unconsciously, the clogging of cars in tight downtown areas in cities and decreasing parking space gave an impetus to develop new forms of rapid transit like subways and electric articulated buses.

A 250-mg sample of carbon from wood underwent 15300 carbon-14 disintegrations in 36 hours. Estimate the time since the death of
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

The correct answer is - 9935 years approximately.

Explanation:

Let z be the age in years to be found:

(15300 disintegrations) x (1.0 g / 0.250 g) / (1.84×10^4 disintegrations)

= 3.3260

half life of carbon = (1/2)^(z/5730 yr)

Solve for z

3.3260 = (1/2)^(z/5730)

Take the log of both sides:

log 3.3260  = (z/5730) log (1/2)

log 3.3260 / log (1/2) = z/5730

z = 5730 log 3.3260 / log (1/2)

= 1.73378816*5730

= 9935 years approximately.
