Answer:

The artifact is 11,460 years old.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Given that,

The half life of the carbon-14 is 5730  years and we are left with 255 of the sample of wood from an arti-fact.

So it takes 5730 years for the sample to reduce into half

Initially there will be 100% of the sample so

after first 5730 years, the sample reduces into 50% percent

Now the left 50% sample will take another 5730 years to decay into half of its amount.

after next 5730 years  the sample reduces into 25% percent

So totally after 2 half-life the sample reduces into 25%

That is (5730 +5730) years = 11460 years

Let the four horizontal compass directions north, east, south, and west be represented by units vectors n^, e^, s^, and w^, resp
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

c = e > b = d > a

Explanation:

Given vectors are all unit vectors, therefore they have a magnitude of 1

<h3>Let a, b be two vectors and magnitude of cross product of these two vectors is (magnitude of a) × (magnitude of b) × (sine of angle between these two vectors)</h3>

As all are unit vectors their magnitude is 1 and therefore in this case the cross product between any two vectors depends on the sine of angle between those two vectors

In option a as both the vectors are same, the angle between them will be zero and sin0° will also be 0

In option b angle between those two vectors is 135° and sin135° is 1 ÷ √2

In option c angle between those two vectors is 90° and sin90° is 1

In option d angle between those two vectors is 45° and sin45° is 1 ÷ √2

In option e angle between those two vectors is 90° and sin90° is 1

So by comparison of magnitudes of cross products in each option, the order will be  c = e > b = d > a

In the following lever system, what is the clockwise torque? 18 Nm 240 Nm 360 Nm 480 Nm
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

240 Nm

Explanation:

The clockwise torque is the torque determined only by the force that makes the lever rotating clockwise: therefore, the force of 80 N on the right.

The torque produced by this force is given by:

\tau = F d

where

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the arm

For the force of 80 N on the right,

F = 80 N

d = 3 m (distance from the pivot)

So, the clockwise moment is

\tau = (80)(3)=240 Nm
