The answer is:

Scientists now think the earth is much older.

The explanation:

-The age of the Earth is 4.54 ± 0.05 billion years (4.54 × 109 years ± 1%) This age may represent the age of the Earth’s accretion, of core formation, or of the material from which the Earth formed.This dating is based on evidence from radiometric age-dating of meteorite material and is consistent with the radiometric ages of the oldest-known terrestrial and lunar samples.

-Following the development of radiometric age-dating in the early 20th century, measurements of lead in uranium-rich minerals showed that some were in excess of a billion years old.

As you move farther away from a source emitting a pure tone, the ___________ of the sound you hear decreases.
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

frequency

Explanation:

The phenomenon of apparent change in frequency due to the relation motion between the source and the observer is called Doppler's effect.

So, when we move farther, the frequency of sound decreases. The formula of the Doppler's effect is  

f' = \frac{v + v_o}{v+ v_s} f

where, v is the velocity of sound, vs is the velocity of source and vo is the velocity of observer, f is the true frequency. f' is the apparent frequency.

The atomic mass of nitrogen is 14.01, hydrogen is 1.01, sulfur is 32.07, and oxygen is 16.00. What is the molar mass of ammonium
MArishka [77]

The molar mass of ammonium sulphate [(NH4)2SO4] is 132.17 g (option E). Details about molar mass can be found below.

<h3>How to calculate molar mass?</h3>

The molar mass of a substance can be calculated by adding the atomic masses of the elements in the compound.

According to this question, the atomic mass of nitrogen is given as 14.01, hydrogen is 1.01, sulfur is 32.07, and oxygen is 16.00.

The molar mass of ammonium sulphate is as follows:

[(NH4)2SO4] = [14.01 + 1(4)]2 + 32.07 + 16.00(4)

= 36.02 + 32.07 + 64

= 132.09

Therefore, the molar mass of ammonium sulphate [(NH4)2SO4] is 132.17 g.

A box of mass 12 kg is at rest on a flat floor. The coefficient of static friction between the box and floor is 0.42. What is th
vladimir2022 [97]

As we know that friction force on box is given by

F_s = \mu_s N

here we know that

N = mg

here we have

m = 12 kg

\mu_s = 0.42

so now we have

N = 12(9.8) = 117.6 N

now we will have

F_s = 0.42(12)(9.8)

F_s = 49.4 N

so it required minimum 49 N(approx) force to move the block
