Answer: 1. Being able to carbon date fossils

From the daily exposure to radioisotopes of organisms, scientists discovered to carbon date fossils. In carbon dating, the age of organic matter can be determined from the relative proportions of C-12 and C-14 i.e. isotopes of Carbon (carbon 12 and carbon 14). This ratio changes over the years because carbon-14 decays and is not replenished as there is no exchange with the atmosphere.

What are stars made of?<br> How do they expand?<br> How do they explode?
lutik1710 [3]
Stars are made of very hot gas. This gas is mostly hydrogen and helium, which are the two lightest elements,  star is in a delicate and fragile balance between gravity, which would collapse the star to a point, and its internal pressure caused by the energy of the nuclear fusion reaction in the core. When a star's fuel has been spent, it explodes into a giant fireball known as a supernova.. I really hope this helps!!!!

The difference between Lincoln's plan of reconstruction and the Radical Republicans' is that Lincoln wanted to reunite the union
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

The differences between the Lincoln, Johnson, and Congress Reconstruction plans include: Although both the Lincoln and Johnson plan were open to readmission of the southern States, Congress claimed that the two administrations were too lenient and sought stiffer punishment for the States

The aspect of Abraham Lincoln's plan for reconstruction in the South that made it differ from the plan of congressional leaders was that Lincoln's plan was more focused on helping the South rebuild than on punishing it and the Radical Republicans' reconstruction offered all kinds of new opportunities to African Americans, including the vote (for males), property ownership, education, legal rights, and even the possibility of holding political office. By the beginning of 1868, about 700,000 African Americans were registered voters.

Reconstruction encompassed three major initiatives:

1. restoration of the Union

2. transformation of southern society

3.enactment of progressive legislation favoring the rights of freed slaves

The earth and the moon exert forces on each other which forces is greater? explain
Helen [10]

Thank you for your question, what you say is true, the gravitational force exerted by the Earth on the Moon has to be equal to the centripetal force.

An interesting application of this principle is that it allows you to determine a relation between the period of an orbit and its size. Let us assume for simplicity the Moon's orbit as circular (it is not, but this is a good approximation for our purposes).

The gravitational acceleration that the Moon experience due to the gravitational attraction from the Earth is given by:

ag=G(MEarth+MMoon)/r2

Where G is the gravitational constant, M stands for mass, and r is the radius of the orbit. The centripetal acceleration is given by:

acentr=(4 pi2 r)/T2

Where T is the period. Since the two accelerations have to be equal, we obtain:

(4 pi2 r) /T2=G(MEarth+MMoon)/r2

Which implies:

r3/T2=G(MEarth+MMoon)/4 pi2=const.

This is the so-called third Kepler law, that states that the cube of the radius of the orbit is proportional to the square of the period.

This has interesting applications. In the Solar System, for example, if you know the period and the radius of one planet orbit, by knowing another planet's period you can determine its orbit radius. I hope that this answers your question.

Describe the tide requirements necessary to create a tidal power plant.
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

La energía mareomotriz se produce gracias al movimiento generado por las mareas, esta energía es aprovechada por turbinas, las cuales a su vez mueven la mecánica de un alternador que genera energía eléctrica, finalmente este último esta conectado con una central en tierra que distribuye la energía hacia la comunidad.
