Answer:
0.56
Explanation:
From the formula;
0.693/t1/2 = 2.303/t log (Ao/At)
t1/2 = half life of the C-14 = 5730 y
t = time elapsed = 4800 y
At = Activity of C-14 at time t
Ao= Activity of a living C-14 sample
0.693/5730 = 2.303/4800 log (Ao/At)
1.2 * 10^-4 = 4.8 * 10^-4 log (Ao/At)
log (Ao/At) = 1.2 * 10^-4/4.8 * 10^-4
log (Ao/At) = 0.25
Ao/At = Antilog (0.25)
Ao/At = 1.778
Hence;
At/Ao = (1.778)^-1
At/Ao = 0.56
Answer:
Most spiral galaxies consist of a flat, rotating disk containing stars, gas and dust, and a central concentration of stars known as the bulge. ... The spiral arms are sites of ongoing star formation and are brighter than the surrounding disc because of the young, hot OB stars that inhabit them.
Explanation:
(I posted the picture for a ray diagram and the first law of reflection.) The rays show the first law of reflection since everything gets reflected. Look at the picture for more:
Answer:hemoglobin that has a high affinity for oxygen
Explanation:
Haemoglobin is the oxygen carrying pigment in blood. It performs this function because of the presence of iron at the center of the haemoglobin which coordinates reversibly with oxygen thereby aiding delivery of oxygen to cells. At high altitudes where air is thinner and the partial pressure of oxygen is lower than sea level, haemoglobin must develop a greater affinity for oxygen in order to carry the scarce oxygen to cells.
