Answer:

Carbon - 14 Isotope

Explanation:

Carbon - 14 is an unstable and weak radioactive carbon isotope that is used to determine the age of an organic matter (i.e Carbon Dating).

Answer:

The unstable isotope that would be best to refine the date of bones found in a cave hearth between 30,000 and 50,000 years ago is carbon-14 (C-14). Usually, C-14 is used to estimate the age of decomposed organisms that existed within any age less than 50,000 years ago from a recent date; therefore, C-14 would be best for any age between 30,000 and 50,000 years ago.

How can a high school student have more momentum than a truck
morpeh [17]

Answer:

When truck is at rest while student is under motion

Explanation:

Since it is obvious that the mass of a truck is more than that of a student, we know that momentum is a product of mass and velocity

P=mv where m represent mass, v is velocity. When the student has more speed than that of truck, he exerts more momentum. The only way a student can exert more momentum is by having more speed while the truck is at rest. In such case, the momentum of truck will be zero while momentum of student will have a value

ella [17]
A. momentum = mass x velocity
b. kinetic energy = 1/2 x mass x velocity^2
Although total momentum is conserved, total kinetic energy is not necessarily equal. It’s because Jay acted a force on the skateboard and increased the energy of the system.

Order the steps to describe how information is sent. A signal is produced. A signal is seen, heard, or used. Radio waves are mod
nordsb [41]

Answer:

A signal is produced.

Radio waves are modulated and amplified.

Radio waves are amplified and demodulated.

A signal is seen, heard, or used.

Explanation:

Communication is the method of transmitting information between two or more participants. A radio communication network is a set of static and wireless radio equipment developed to facilitate an entity by enabling particular modes of communication such as one-to-many and one-to-one communication. Radio waves are being used to transmit information spatially from the sender to receiver, by modulating the radio signal in the transmitter. The above steps explains the loop of the radio communication system.

1 kg ball rolls off a 33 m high cliff, and lands 23 m from the base of the cliff. Express the displacement and the gravitational
enyata [817]

Answer:

d = <23, 33, 0> m ,    F_W = <0, -9.8, 0> ,   W = -323.4 J

Explanation:

We can solve this exercise using projectile launch ratios, for the x-axis the displacement is

         x = vox t

Y Axis  

         y = v_{oy} t - ½ g t²

It's displacement is

      d = x i ^ + y j ^ + z k ^

Substituting

      d = (23 i ^ + 33 j ^ + 0) m

Using your notation

   d = <23, 33, 0> m

The force of gravity is the weight of the body

         W = m g

        W = 1  9.8 = 9.8 N

In vector notation, in general the upward direction is positive

         W = (0 i ^  - 9.8 j ^ + 0K ^) N

         W = <0, -9.8, 0>

Work is defined

           W = F. dy

             W = F dy cos θ

In this case the force of gravity points downwards and the displacement points upwards, so the angle between the two is 180º

          Cos 180 = -1

           W = -F y

           W = - 9.8 (33-0)

           W = -323.4 J
