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.
Q: The small piston of a hydraulic lift has a cross-sectional of 3.00 cm2 and its large piston has a cross-sectional area of 200 cm2. What downward force of magnitude must be applied to the small piston for the lift to raise a load whose weight is Fg = 15.0 kN?
Answer:
225 N
Explanation:
From Pascal's principle,
F/A = f/a ...................... Equation 1
Where F = Force exerted on the larger piston, f = force applied to the smaller piston, A = cross sectional area of the larger piston, a = cross sectional area of the smaller piston.
Making f the subject of the equation,
f = F(a)/A ..................... Equation 2
Given: F = 15.0 kN = 15000 N, A = 200 cm², a = 3.00 cm².
Substituting into equation 2
f = 15000(3/200)
f = 225 N.
Hence the downward force that must be applied to small piston = 225 N
Answer:
b and c are the answers
A is an opinion, D is a superstitious belief because they haven’t found Jesus obviously
Answer:
a) the magnitude of the force is
F= Q(
) and where k = 1/4πε₀
F = Qqs/4πε₀r³
b) the magnitude of the torque on the dipole
τ = Qqs/4πε₀r²
Explanation:
from coulomb's law
E = 
where k = 1/4πε₀
the expression of the electric field due to dipole at a distance r is
E(r) =
, where p = q × s
E(r) =
where r>>s
a) find the magnitude of force due to the dipole
F=QE
F= Q(
)
where k = 1/4πε₀
F = Qqs/4πε₀r³
b) b) magnitude of the torque(τ) on the dipole is dependent on the perpendicular forces
τ = F sinθ × s
θ = 90°
note: sin90° = 1
τ = F × r
recall F = Qqs/4πε₀r³
∴ τ = (Qqs/4πε₀r³) × r
τ = Qqs/4πε₀r²
Answer:
Answer to the question:
Explanation:
Differences between ionic bond and covalent bond:
The ionic bond occurs between two different atoms (metallic and non-metallic), while the covalent bond occurs between two equal atoms (non-metallic).
In the covalent bond there is an electron compartment, while in the ionic bond there is an electron transfer.
Ionic bonds have a high melting and boiling point, while covalent bonds usually have a low point.
