Rainfall can cause erosion both when the rain hits the surface of the Earth, called splash erosion, and when raindrops accumulate and flow like small streams. Rivers can create a significant amount of erosion over time. They break up particles along the river bottom and carry them downstream. One example of river erosion is the Grand Canyon which was formed by the Colorado River. Ocean waves can cause the coastline to erode. The shear energy and force of the waves causes pieces of rock and coastline to break off changing the coastline over time. Large floods can cause erosion to happen very quickly acting like powerful rivers.

Fossils up to 75,000 years old can be dated with ______.
kodGreya [7K]
Fossils up to 75,000 years old can be dated with Carbon-14.
 
Radio isotopes can be used for the age determination of the fossils. Carbon-14 is a common isotope which is used for that purpose. But the half- life of the Carbon-14 is relatively small as 5730 years. That means the amount of Carbon-14 will be half after every 5730 years. Hence, decay is very fast. So Carbon-14 cannot be used forage determination which is more than 75000 years due to the low accuracy.
