Answer:
1/8
Explanation:
17,100 years is 3 times the half-life of 5,700 years. After each half-life, half remains, so the amount remaining after 3 half-lives is ...
(1/2)(1/2)(1/2) = 1/8
1/8 of the sample remains after 17,100 years.
Answer:
The Celcius and kelvin scale are related unit for unit. One degree unit on the Celcius scale is equivalent to one degree unit on the kelvin scale. The only difference between these two scales is the zero point.
Answer:
Torque = 35.60 N.m (rounded off to 3 significant figures.
Explanation:
Given details:
The mass of the rock on the left, ms = 2.25 kg
The total mass of the rocks, mp = 10.1 kg
The distance from the fulcrum to the center of the pile of rocks, rp = 0.360 m
(a) The torque produced by the pile of rock, T = F*rp = m*g*rp
Torque = 9.8*0.360*10.1 = 35.6328
Torque = 35.60 N.m (rounded off to 3 significant figures).
Answer:
500cal
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Mass of water = 50g
Initial temperature = 22°C
Final temperature = 32°C
Specific heat of water = 1cal/g
Unknown:
Amount of heat absorbed by the water in calories = ?
Solution:
To solve this problem, we use the expression below:
H = m c Ф
H is the amount of heat absorbed
m is the mass
c is the specific heat capacity
Ф is the temperature change
H = 50 x 1 x (32 - 22) = 500cal
The spiral structure emerges when galactic clusters (open), H II regions and O & B type stars (young stars) are used as tracers. We know this to be true as other pinwheel galaxies exhibit the same patterns across these tracers as in the milky way.
