Answer:

d ) 16 years

Explanation:

If n be number of half years passed then

[tex]\frac{m}{m_0} =\sqrt[n]{\frac{1}{2} }[/tex]

m is mass undecayed m₀ is original mass

Here m = 6 g

m₀ =24 g

Putting these values

\frac{6}{24} =\sqrt[n]{\frac{1}{2} }

n = 2 half lives

age = 2 x 8 = 16 years

= 16 years

How does the loneliest whale relate to physics/waves.
Lelechka [254]
Answer: the loneliest whale relates to the communication that whales give to each other

Explanation: whales have different forms of communication , and the ‘loneliest’ whale can’t get any company by the other whales.


In other words: it may be a new and different way whales communicate, nobody knows much about the loneliest whale. It may be forming a new kind of communication

A swinging pendulum has a total energy of <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E_i" id="TexFormula1" title="E_i" alt="E_i" align="a
Zolol [24]

Answer:

\frac{E_{2}}{E_{1}} \approx 1 -\frac{3\theta}{1-\theta} (for small oscillations)

Explanation:

The total energy of the pendulum is equal to:

E_{1} = m\cdot g \cdot (1-\cos \theta)\cdot L

For small oscillations, the equation can be re-arranged into the following form:

E_{1} \approx m\cdot g \cdot (1-\theta) \cdot L

Where:

\theta = \frac{A}{L^{2}}, measured in radians.

If the amplitude of pendulum oscillations is increase by a factor of 4, the angle of oscillation is 4\theta and the total energy of the pendulum is:

E_{2} \approx m\cdot g \cdot (1-4\theta)\cdot L

The factor of change is:

\frac{E_{2}}{E_{1}} \approx \frac{1 - 4\theta}{1-\theta}

\frac{E_{2}}{E_{1}} \approx 1 -\frac{3\theta}{1-\theta}

Question 6
Margaret [11]

Limestone and dolomite are the rocks present in the locations which leads to the formation of caves.

<h2>Formation of caves</h2>

The type of rocks that once existed in these  locations are limestone and dolomite whereas the pH of the nearby groundwater is slightly acidic which is responsible for the formation of caves. Caves are formed by the dissolution of limestone due to acid rain.

<h3>Acid rain</h3>

Rainwater reacts with carbon dioxide from the air and percolates through the soil, which turns into a weak acid. This slowly dissolves out the limestone which become turn to form caves so we can conclude that Limestone and dolomite are the rocks present in the locations which leads to the formation of caves.

Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

Both technicians A and B

Explanation:

Both trailer sway control, hill assist and hill descent controls are additional featires that enhance stability of electronics and their control systems. Majorly, these features track and reduce skidding in electronics, therfore, enhancing electronic system stability. During the process, these newly added features help to automatically apply brakes and direct the sytem where the controller wants to take it.
