What is carbon dating

Physics
1 answer:
Tom [10]3 years ago
7 0

the determination of the age or date of organic matter from the relative proportions of the carbon isotopes carbon-12 and carbon-14 that it contains. The ratio between them changes as radioactive carbon-14 decays and is not replaced by exchange with the atmosphere.

Answer:

33.83W/m²

Explanation:

The intensity of the speake at the surface is

I = P/A

I = 2.03W / 0.06m²

I = 33.83W/m²

Sam is recklessly driving 60 mph in a 30 mph speed zone when he suddenly sees the police. he steps on the brakes and slows to 30
barxatty [35]
For this problem, we use the derived equations for rectilinear motion at constant acceleration. The equations used for this problem are:

a = (v - v₀)/t
2ax = v² - v₀²
where
a is the acceleration
x is the distance
v is the final velocity
v₀ is the initial velocity
t is the time

The solution is as follows;

a = (60mph - 30 mph)/(3 s * 1 h/3600 s)
a = 36,000 mph²

2(36,000 mph²)(x) = 60² - 30²
Solving for x,
x = 0.0375 miles

Explain why the extrapolated temperature is used to determine the maximun temperature of the mixture rather than the highest rec
Oksi-84 [34.3K]
The extrapolated temperature is used to define the maximum temperature of the mixture relatively than the highest recorded temperature in which the conclusion will effect in a higher specific heat value. Heat is bound to escape from whatever apparatus is using, therefore it is needed to account for the loss of the heat that does not go into increasing the temperature of the mixture.

Which statement best describes the law of conservation of energy?
Phantasy [73]
<span>The correct option is C. Energy cannot be created or destroyed. This statement is known as law of conservation of energy, and it implies that whenever a certain form of energy does change, the loss of this form of energy must have converted into an another type of energy. A typical example is an object falling to the ground: initially, the object has gravitational potential energy. As the object falls down, it loses potential energy (since its altitude from the grounf decreases), but it acquires kinetic energy (because its velocity increases). In this example, potential energy has converted into kinetic energy, but the total energy of the object has remained constant.</span>
