In most materials, as heat energy is absorbed, density
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

In most materials, as heat energy is absorbed, the density decreases. IF a certain object is heated, it might appear bigger than usual because it expands as the molecules inside moves faster than usual. However the mass of it stays the same while the density decreases.

A baseball is thrown through the air. It's initial velocity, described as a vector, is → v ( t = 0 ) = 17.1 ˆ i + 14.7 ˆ j m / s
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

 a = - 9.8 j ^   m/s²

Explanation:

This is a projectile launch problem, they give us the initial velocity in the two components

         v₀ₓ = 17.1 m / s

         v_{oy} = 14.7 m / s

They indicate that the only acceleration that exists is the acceleration of gravity, which acts in the direction towards the center of the Earth, in general in a coordinate system it coincides with the direction of the y axis.

           a = - g j ^

           a = - 9.8 j ^  m /s²

Potassium-40 has a half-life of approximately 1.25 billion years. Approximately how many years will pass before a sample of pota
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

3.75 billion years

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Half-life (t½) = 1.25 billion years

Number of half-lives (n) = 3

Time (t) =?

The time taken for the sample of potassium-40 to contains one-eighth the original amount of parent isotope can be obtained as:

n = t / t½

3 = t / 1.25

Cross multiply

t = 3 × 1.25

t = 3.75 billion years.

Therefore, it will take 3.75 billion years for the sample of potassium-40 to contains one-eighth the original amount of parent isotope
