Most geologists accept radiometric dating techniques as valid because radioactive elements decay at a constant and measurable rate.
Answer: Option C
<u>Explanation:</u>
Scientists prefer radioactive dating to carbon dating because it is more accurate in measuring. The analysis depends upon the radioactive decay of radioactive isotopes of any matter in a given rock or soil.
The parent atoms and daughter atoms are compared while studying, and hence age can be calculated easily. Radioactive decay depends upon the given half-life of the atom, which is a constant and is known. So, it would be very easy to calculate the number of progeny atoms and parent atoms and find out their age.
In a real system of levers, wheels, or pulleys, the AMA is less than the IMA because of friction.
AMA (Actual mechanical advantage) is found by dividing output force by effort force. The actual mechanical advantage will always be less than the ideal mechanical advantage. The ideal mechanical advantage assumes perfect efficiency which doesn't account for friction, while actual mechanical advantage does. Therefore; the IMA is always greater than the actual mechanical advantage because all machines must overcome friction.
Volume= Length X width X height.
Plug in the values for each and solve for the volume.
V= (L)(W)(H)
V=(4cm)(5cm)(10cm).
Answer:
The electric potential is approximately 5.8 V
The resulting direction of the electric field will lie on the line that joins the charges but since it is calculated in the midpoint and the charges are the same we can directly say that its magnitude is zero
Explanation:
The two protons can be considered as point charges. Therefore, the electric potential is given by the point charge potential:
(1)
where 
is the charge of the particle, 
the electric permittivity of the vacuum (I assuming the two protons are in a vacuum) and 
is the distance from the point charge to the point where the potential is being measured. Because the electric potential is an scalar, we can simply add the contribution of the two potentials in the midpoint between the protons. Thus:
Substituting the values 
, 
and 
we obtain:
The resulting direction of the electric field will lie on the line that joins the charges but since it is calculated in the midpoint and the charges are the same we can directly say that its magnitude is zero.
