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.

Suppose a soccer player kicks the ball from a distance 29 m toward the goal. find the initial speed of the ball if it just passe

Rudik [331]

The ball's vertical velocity at the time it just passes over the goal is 0 m/s. Its initial vertical velocity is unknown and we denote it by $v\sin39^\circ$ , where $v$ here is the ball's initial speed. Vertically, the only force acting on the ball is gravity, which attributes a downward acceleration of 9.8 m/s^2. We expect the maximum height achieved by the ball to be 2.4 m, so we can find the initial speed by solving
