7 0

Answer:

Archaeology

Explanation:

Radioisotopes are radioactive atoms of an element in which their atoms contain excess energy making them unstable. When broken down they become more stable releasing radiations.

Carbon 14 is a radioactive isotope that is used in archaeology to study and estimate the lifespan and age of organic materials such as wood, leather. Carbon 14 can be used to estimate the ages of materials up to 50000 to 60000 years.

True or false: objects fall toward earth at a rate of 9.8 m/s because of centripetal force.
Citrus2011 [14]
Sadly, no. The statement kind of has some appropriate words in it, but it's badly corrupted. Objects don't fall to Earth at a rate of 9.8 m/s, and the force that accelerates them downward is not a centripetal one.

A water slide is constructed so that swimmers, starting from rest at the top of the slide, leave the end of the slide traveling
Natalka [10]

Answer:

H = 5 m

Explanation:

As the person leaves the slide horizontally so the time taken by the person to hit the water is given as

t = 0.672 s

so we can find the vertical velocity by which person will hit the water using kinematics

v_y = u_y + at

v_y = 0 + (9.81)(0.672)

v_y = 6.6 m/s

now the speed of the person at the end of the slide is given as

v = \frac{L}{t}

v = \frac{5}{0.672}

v_x = 7.44 m/s

now by energy conservation we can find the initial height

mgH = \frac{1}{2}m(v_x^2 + v_y^2)

H = \frac{1}{2g}(v_x^2 + v_y^2)

H = \frac{1}{2(9.81)}(7.44^2 + 6.6^2)

H = 5 m

How did the ideas of einstein and freud contribute to a sense of uncertainty?
Ipatiy [6.2K]
Einstein's Theory of Relativity was a theory which carried about hesitation in Newton's gravity which was measured as an important part of science. Which brings one to query what we detect as being factual. 
Freud's thoughts about the subliminal questions one's own mind to what we have faith in. Is a dream just a dream, or is it your subliminal trying to tell you a little? It brought about a feeling of being ignorant of what is going on in your own mind. 
These and maybe other bring persons to doubt about the world about them and within themselves.

An object is suspended by a string from the ceiling of an elevator. If the tension in the string is equal to 25 N at an instant
Phantasy [73]

By Newton's second law, the net force on the object is

∑ <em>F</em> = <em>T</em> - <em>mg</em> = - <em>ma</em>

where

• <em>T</em> = 25 N, the tension in the string

• <em>m</em> is the mass of the object

• <em>g</em> = 9.8 m/s², the acceleration due to gravity

• <em>a</em> = 2.0 m/s², the acceleration of the elevator-object system

Solve for <em>m</em> :

25 N - <em>m</em> (9.8 m/s²) = - <em>m</em> (2.0 m/s²)

==>   <em>m</em> = (25 N) / (9.8 m/s² - 2.0 m/s²) ≈ 3.2 kg
