The find the approximate age of the granite one must know the half-life of potassium-40. The half-life of an element is the period of time in which half atoms of the same substance changes into the isotope of the element. The isotope of potassium-40 is Argon 40. Potassium-40 has a half-life of approximately 1.3 billion years. The rock is approximately 1.3 billion years old.
The total energy stored in the capacitors is determined as 2.41 x 10⁻⁴ J.
<h3>What is the potential difference of the circuit?</h3>
The potential difference of the circuit is calculated as follows;
U = ¹/₂CV²
where;
- C is capacitance of the capacitor
- V is the potential difference
For a parallel circuit the voltage in the circuit is always the same.
The energy stored in 2.5 μf capacitor is known, hence the potential difference of the circuit is calculated as follows;
U = ¹/₂CV²
2U = CV²
V = √2U/C
V = √(2 x 1.8 x 10⁻⁴ / 2.5 x 10⁻⁶)
V = 12 V
The equivalent capacitance of C1 and C2 is calculated as follows;
1/C = 1/C₁ + 1/C₂
1/C = (1)/(0.9 x 10⁻⁶) + (1)/(16 x 10⁻⁶)
1/C = 1,173,611.11
C = 1/1,173,611.11
C = 8.52 x 10⁻⁷ C
The total capacitance of the circuit is calculated as follows;
Ct = 8.52 x 10⁻⁷ C + 2.5 x 10⁻⁶ C
Ct = 3.35 x 10⁻⁶ C
The total energy of the circuit is calculated as follows;
U = ¹/₂CtV²
U = ¹/₂(3.35 x 10⁻⁶ )(12)²
U = 2.41 x 10⁻⁴ J

<span>We convert the Fahrenheit temperature to Celsius. C = F 32 F 5 C = 15 F 32 F 5 C = 26 C . The antifreeze only protects to 9 F 9 F 22 C and thus it will not offer protection to temperatures as low as 15 F = 26.1 C . 2A (E) The mass is the difference between the mass of the full and empty flask. density = 291.4 g 108.6 g = 1.46 g/mL 125 mL 2B (E) First determine the volume required. V = (1.000 × 103 g) (8.96 g cm-3) = 111.6 cm3. Next determine the radius using the relationship between volume of a sphere and radius. 4 4 111.6 3 r= 3 = 2.987 cm V = r3 = 111.6 cm3 = (3.1416)r3 3 3 4(3.1416) 3A (E) The volume of the stone is the difference between the level in the graduated cylinder with the stone present and with it absent. density = mass 28.4 g rock = = 2.76 g/mL = 2.76 g/cm3 volume 44.1 mL rock &water 33.8 mL water 3B (E) </span>
The extra energy allows the molecules to convert states of molecules.
<h3>What is heating?</h3>
When the temperature is increased , the body or particle is said to be heating.
The water in this pot is in the process of changing from a liquid to a gas. Thermal energy is still being added to the water as it vaporizes, but its temperature and the motion of its particles are not increasing.
When the liquid is converted to gas, the temperature reaches the boiling point of water. After boiling, the heat added up will only make the particles to convert its phase and go away in then atmosphere.
Thus, extra energy added helps molecules of water to change its state from liquid to solid.
