Answer:
THE PLANT FOSSIL IS 11, 460 years AT A MASS OF 7 GRAMS.
Explanation:
The half life t1/2 of a radioisotope is the rate of decay of the radioisotope. It is the time taken for half of the total number of atoms in a given sample of an element to decay.
From the question, the half life is 5730 years.
Lets take the original mass of the radioactive substance as 7 grams
the final mass of the substance to be 1.75 grams
The number of half life to decay from 7 g to 1.75 grams would be;
7 grams ----------> 3.5 grams ---------> 1.75 grams
2 half life can be deducted as 7 grams decay to remain 1.75 grams.
To calculate the age of the substance, we multiply the half life by the number of decay it undergoes to remain the final mass.
How old = Half life * number of decay
How old = 5730 * 2
How old = 11,460 years.
The fossil will be 11,460 years at 7 grams before decaying.
Answer: reflected, clouds, greenhouse effect.
Explanation:
Sunlight can be absorbed, reflected , or scattered before it reaches Earth’s surface. About 30 percent of sunlight hits Earth directly, and 22 percent is filtered through clouds . Dust particles scatter short wavelengths, which causes the sky to appear blue. Earth radiates heat into the atmosphere, which traps the heat in gases, causing the greenhouse effect.
The answer to this problem is =12
Answer:
a medicine or other substance which has a physiological effect when ingested or otherwise introduced into the body.
Explanation:
A = mass number, A = protons + neutrons
Z = atomic number, Z = protons
neutrons = A - Z
neutrons = 18 - 8 = 10
