Answer:
1/8
Explanation:
17,100 years is 3 times the half-life of 5,700 years. After each half-life, half remains, so the amount remaining after 3 half-lives is ...
(1/2)(1/2)(1/2) = 1/8
1/8 of the sample remains after 17,100 years.
Just like mass, energy, linear momentum, and electric charge, angular momentum is also conserved.
The wheel has angular momentum. I don't remember whether it's
up or down (right-hand or left-hand rule), but it's consistent with
counterclockwise rotation as viewed from above.
When you grab the wheel and stop it from spinning (relative to you),
that angular momentum has to go somewhere.
As I see it, the angular momentum transfers through you as a temporary
axis of rotation, and eventually to the merry-go-round. Finally, all the mass
of (merry-go-round) + (you) + (wheel) is rotating around the big common
axis, counterclockwise as viewed from above, and with the magnitude
that was originally all concentrated in the wheel.
Answer:
Yes, I'm pretty sure it is. That's why I don't click on it!
