It's been a while since I've studied this, but my answers would be:
13. 5730 years. The half-life of a substance is the amount of time it takes for half of it to decay, and, according to the graph, half of the substance remained at 5730 years.
14. 10740 years. According to the graph, only 25% of the carbon remained after 10740 years.
15. 15 atoms. According to the graph, only 12.5% of the carbon remained after 16110 years. 12.5% of 120 atoms is 15 atoms.
16. 1600 atoms. According to the graph, if a sample of carbon is 10740 years old, only 25% of it remains. To find the original amount, multiply the current amount by (100% / 25%), which equals 4. So, 4. 400 atoms * 4 = 1600 atoms is the original amount.
Answer:
t=40s,
Explanation:
If you can swim in still water at 0.5m/s, the shortest time it would take you to swim from bank to bank across a 20m wide river, if the water flows downstream at a rate of 1.5m/s, is most nearly:
from the question the swimmer will have a velocity which is equal to the sum of the speed of the water and the velocity to swi across the bank
Vt=v1+v2
the time is takes to swim across the bank will be
DY=Dv*t
DY=distance across the bank
Dv=ther velocity of the swimmer across the bank
t=20/ 0.5m/s,
t=40s, time it takes to swim across the bank
velocity is the rate of displacement
displacement is distance covered in a specific direction
Answer:
Explanation:
according to third equation of motion
2as=vf²-vi²
vf²=2as+vi²
vf=√2as+vi²
vf=√2as+vi
vf=√2*2*4+3
vf=√16+3
vf=4+3=7
so final velocity is 7 m/s
Higher wind speeds would increase the amount of electricity generated by a wind turbine.
<h3>What is a power plant?</h3>
A power plant is an industrial structure that generates electricity. The majority of power plants are linked to the electrical grid.
Stronger winds produce greater power because they enable the blades to revolve more quickly. Greater mechanical and electrical power from the generator result from faster spinning.
Hence, higher wind speeds would increase the amount of electricity generated by a wind turbine.
