Before any calculations, we need to determine first the crystal structure of the lead metal. From literature, the lead metal assumes an FCC structure. So, it would have 4 atoms per units cell where the three atoms is the sum of all the portion of an atoms in each face of the cell and the 1 atom is the sum of all the portion of the corner atoms. The volume of the unit cell is equal to the edge length raise to the power three or V = a^3. The edge length can be calculated from the radius of the atoms by the pythagorean theorem. We do as follows:

V = a^3
   a^2 + a^2 = (4r)^2
  2a^2 = (4r)^2
    a = 2r
V = (2r)^3
V = 16r^3
V = 16 (0.175x10^-9)^3
V = 1.21 x 10^-28 m^3

Scientists can use the location and depth of where a fossil is found to estimate the age of the fossil. To do this, they use
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

C the Law of Superposition

Explanation:

Basically the law of Superposition is applied in this regard. The law states that "the oldest layer is on the bottom and the youngest layer is on top".

When we find fossils at a particular depth we can relatively date a rock based on the strata we find them. A fossil in place in bottom beds will be older than the one in the topmost layer. Fossils also succeed one another in a definite pattern according to the principle of fossil and fauna succession.

Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

  Dr = 263 10⁻⁶ m

Explanation:

The diffraction pattern for constructive interference is described by

        a sin θ = m λ

in this it indicates that the order of diffraction is m = 1

Let's use a direct proportion rule to find the separation of two slits. If there are 600 lines in 1 me, what is the distance between 2 slits

   a = 2 lines 1/600

   a = 2/600

    a = 3.33 10⁻³ mm = 3.33 10⁻⁴ cm

let's use trigonometry

      tan θ = y / L

as the measured angles are small

      tan θ = sin θ / cos θ sin θ

      sin θ = y / L

we substitute

     a  y/L = λ

     y = λ L / a

for λ = 400 10-9 m

      I = 400 10⁻⁹ 2.9 / 3.33 10⁻³

      i = 346.89 10⁻⁶ m

f

or λ = 700 nm

        y_f = 700 10⁻⁻⁹ 2.9 / 3.33 10⁻³

        y_f = 609.609 10⁻⁶ m

the separation of this spectrum

        Δr = v_f - i

        Dr = (609.609 - 346)  10 ⁻⁶

        Dr = 263 10⁻⁶ m
