Answer: Carbon 14 and Uranium 238 are not used together to determine fossil ages.
Explanation:
Carbon 14 with a half life of 5,700 years can only be used to date fossils of approximately 50,000 years. Most fossils are thought to be much older than 50,000 years. Also most fossils no longer contain any Carbon. The fossilized remains have been mineralized where the original organic material has been replaced and turned into stones containing no carbon.
Uranium 238 has a half life of 4.5 billion years. Uranium can be used to date the age of the earth. If 50% of pure uranium' is left in a sample the sample is assumed to be 4.5 billion years old.( This is assuming that the original sample was 100% uranium and no Uranium 238 has been eroded or lost in 4.5 billion years old. If a fossil has only 25 % of the Uranium 238 the sample has an estimated age of 3.2 Billion years. This would be the estimated age of the earliest life or formation of fossils.
Note no fossils contain Uranium 238. Uranium 238 is only found in igneous or volcanic rocks. So no fossils can be dated directly using U 238.
Because of the huge differences in the half lives of Carbon 14 and Uranium238 they cannot be used together. Carbon 14 can only be used to date fossils of a very recent age. Uranium 238 can only be used to date volcanic rocks of a very old age.
Explanation:
speeds = distance/time
=100/16
=6.25m/s
second speed is;
400/44 =9.09
av. speed = total speed /n
= (6.25+9.09)/2
=7.67 m/s
Answer:
Explanation:
we know angular velocity in terms of moment of inertia and angular speed
ω .... (1)
moment of inertia of rod rotating about its center of length b
........ .(2)
using v = ωr
where w is angular velocity
and r is radius of rod which is equal to b
so we get 2v = ωb
ω = 2v/b ................. (3)
here velocity is two time because two opposite ends are moving opposite with a velocity v so net velocity will be 2v
put second and third equation in ist equation
×
so final answer will be 
Answer:
m' = 1 x 10⁻⁶ kg/s
Explanation:
Given that
Diffussion constant = 1 x 10⁻¹¹
Mass flow rate ,m = 2 x 10⁻⁶ kg/s
The diffusion is inversely proportional to the thickness of the membrane and therefore when the thickness is doubled, the mass flow rate would become half.
So new flow rate m'
m' = 1 x 10⁻⁶ kg/s
Answer:
B) 3.33 m/s²
Explanation:
Given that,
The initial velocity of Juan, u = 10 m/s
Final velocity of Juan, v = 60 m/s
Time taken, t = 15 s
The acceleration is given by the relation
a = v-u/t m/s²
Substituting in the above equation
a = 60 - 10 / 15
a = 3.33 m/s²
Hence, the acceleration of the Juan is, a = 3.33 m/s²
