Answer:
The current amount of the Potassium-40 sample is approximately 37.521 grams.
Explanation:
The amount of the sample of the radioactive isotope decays exponentially in time, the amount of mass of the sample as a function of time (
), in grams, is described below:
(1)
Where:
- Initial mass, in grams.
- Time, in years.
- Time constant, in years.
The time constant can be found from half life (
), in years, described in statement:
(2)
If we know that
,
and
, then the current amount of the sample is:




The current amount of the Potassium-40 sample is approximately 37.521 grams.
The correct answer is - A. Seoul grew much more rapidly.
Even though both New York and Chicago has had relatively quick growth rate since the 19th century, they can not match the tempo of growth rate of modern Seoul. After the end of the World War II, Seoul's population skyrocketed. Prior to the war, the city had walls around it, and the space for living was not changing, thus the population was relatively stable and with the same size. After the war though, the removed walls, foreign influence, and more open attitude, led to dramatic growth rate of the city. From being a city that had bellow one million citizens, Seoul grew to have almost 10 million people nowadays, and that has happened in a period of only around 70 years.
The answer is C. The Fertile Crescent
