Marianna [84]3 years ago

Muzzle velocity is a vector quantity which means it has direction and magnitude. Generally speaking, any velocity is classified as a vector quantity, a value with direction and magnitude. Velocity is the rate of change of the location of the object moving and is specified by its direction and speed. Since muzzle velocity is a velocity then it would surely be a vector quantity. Muzzle velocity is the speed of a bullet as it is leaving a muzzle of a gun in a the direction where the gun is pointed. It would have a value ranging from about 120 m/s to 370 m/s in muskets to 1200 m/s for modern rifles.

an animal carcass had 24 grams of carbon 14 when it was alive and 3 grams when its fossilized remains were discovered how old is
KengaRu [80]
The carbon 14 left from this animal is 3 grams of 24 grams which is: 3g/24g= 1/8 times of its original mass. Then, the age of the animal fossil would be:

final weight= initial weight * (1/2) ^ time/half-live
1/8 initial weight = initial weight  * (1/2) ^ time/half-live
log2 1/8= log2 (1/2) ^ time/half-live
-3= -time/half-live
time= -3 * -(half-live)
time= 3 half-live

If the half-live is 5730 years, the age would be: 3* 5730= 17.190 years.
