Carbon-14 has a half-life of 5,700 years. How long will it take for 6.25% of the Carbon-14 to be remaining?
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

22,800 years

Explanation:

Half life equation:

A = A₀ (½)^(t / T)

where A is the final amount,

A₀ is the initial amount,

t is time,

and T is the half life.

0.0625 = (½)^(t / 5700)

log 0.0625 = (t / 5700) log 0.5

4 = t / 5700

t = 22,800

It takes 22,800 years.

Why do the passengers on a high-flying airplane not appear weightless, similar to the astronauts on the space station?
sergey [27]

<span>Even in space, there is still presence of gravity. The cause of weightlessness is not how far above the earth the space shuttle is but rather how fast it is travelling. The shuttle is in free fall causing weightlessness, but it is travelling fast enough to miss the earth as it falls. Similarly, the airplane could also provide weightlessness if it went free fall as well. However, that ends as the plane hits the ground. </span>

Compare and contrast fluorescent and incandescent light bulbs.
dezoksy [38]

Incandescent light is a glowing white light produced by heat. An incandescent light bulb works by heating a filament in the bulb. Fluorescent light is a bright light produced by electricity flowing through a tube filled with ionized gas. Fluorescent light bulbs are more energy-efficient than incandescent bulbs

Answer:

Use a faster than normal approach and landing speed.

Explanation

For pilots, it is one of the critical moments of the flight that concentrates 12% of fatal accidents. The main difficulty lies in reaching enough speed to take flight within the space of the runway. At present, it ceased to be a challenge for the aircraft, since the engine power improved, so the takeoff ceased to be the most dangerous moment of the flight.

One of the risks that aircraft face today is that some of the engines fail while the plane accelerates. In that case, the pilot must decide in an instant whether it is better to take flight and solve the problem in the air or if it is preferable not to take off.

Although for many staying on the ground might seem the most sensible option, it is not as simple as it seems: to suddenly decelerate an aircraft, with the weight it has and the speed it reaches can cause accidents. However, today a special cement was designed that runs around the runways of the airports, which when coming into contact with the wheels of the aircraft the ground breaks and helps to slow down.
