The proportion of carbon-14 in an organism is useful in figuring out the age of that organism after it dies because...?

1 answer:

4 0

I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is option D. The proportion of carbon-14 in an organism is useful in figuring out the age of that organism after it dies because <span>the proportion of carbon-14 slowly decreases after the death of the organism. Hope this answers the question.</span>

Select the properties that apply to superconductors.

makkiz [27]

made from pure metals . . . no;
they've been made from all kinds of weird compounds and alloys.

conduct electricity with zero resistance . . . yes;
that's why they're called "superconductors".

produce a strong magnetic field . . . possible, but not because it's a superconductor;
just like any other conductor, the magnetic field depends on the current that's flowing in the conductor.

no loss of energy in the transfer of electricity . . .
there's no loss of energy in the current flowing in the superconductor;
but if you tried to transfer the current out of the superconductor into
something else, then there would be some loss.

A bicyclist bikes the 90 mi to a city averaging a certain speed. The return trip is made at a speed that is 1 mph slower. Total

Lynna [10]

Answer:

his speeds while going to city is 10 mph and while his round trip the speed will be 9 mph

Explanation:

Let say the speed of the bicycle while he moves towards the city is "v"

now the speed of the round trip must be smaller by 1 mph

so its speed for round trip will be

$v_2 = v - 1$

now we know that total time of the motion is 19 hr

so we will have

$t_1 = \frac{90}{v}$

$t_2 = \frac{90}{v - 1}$

so we will have

$t_1 + t_2 = 19 hr$

$\frac{90}{v} + \frac{90}{v-1} = 19$

$90(2v - 1) = 19(v^2 - v)$

$19 v^2 - 199 v + 90 = 0$

by solving above equation we have

$v = 10 mph$

so his speeds while going to city is 10 mph and while his round trip the speed will be 9 mph

A car traveling at 27.4 m/s hits a bridge abutment. A passenger in the car, who has a mass of 65.0 kg, moves forward a distance

Minchanka [31]

Answer:

$F=43570.9N$

Explanation:

We can calculate the acceleration experimented by the passenger using the formula $v_f^2=v_i^2+2ad$ , taking the initial direction of movement as the positive direction and considering it comes to a rest:

$a=\frac{v_f^2-v_i^2}{2d}=\frac{-v_i^2}{2d}$

Then we use Newton's 2nd Law to calculate the force the passenger of mass m experimented to have this acceleration:

$F=ma=\frac{-mv_i^2}{2d}$

Which for our values is:

$F=\frac{-(65kg)(27.4m/s)^2}{2(0.56m)}=43570.9N$
