Answer:
The artifact is 11,460 years old.
<u>Explanation</u>:
Given that,
The half life of the carbon-14 is 5730 years and we are left with 255 of the sample of wood from an arti-fact.
So it takes 5730 years for the sample to reduce into half
Initially there will be 100% of the sample so
after first 5730 years, the sample reduces into 50% percent
Now the left 50% sample will take another 5730 years to decay into half of its amount.
after next 5730 years the sample reduces into 25% percent
So totally after 2 half-life the sample reduces into 25%
That is (5730 +5730) years = 11460 years
You have traveled 390 km. In order to find your answer all you have to do is multiply your speed which is 130 km/h by 3 hrs. That's my friend is how you get your answer! Have a great day!
