Answer:
The distance between the lighthouse and the ship
from the start position A = 5.08 miles
from the Final point B = 7.23 miles
Explanation:
Note: Refer the figure
Let the position of the lighthouse be 'L'
Given:
When the ship is at the position A, ∠DAL=37°
Now, when the ship sails through a distance of 2.5 i.e at position B
mathematically,
AB=2.5 miles
∠ABL=25°
Now,
∠DAL + ∠LAB = 180°
or
37° + ∠LAB = 180°
or
∠LAB = 180° - 37° = 143°
Also, In ΔLAB
∠LAB + ∠ABL + ∠ALB = 180°
or
143° + 25° + ∠ALB = 180°
or
∠ALB = 180° - 143° - 25° = 12°
Now using the concept of the sin law
In ΔLAB
or
AL = 5.08 miles
and,
or
BL = 7.23 miles
hence,
The distance between the lighthouse and the ship
from the start position A = 5.08 miles
from the Final point B = 7.23 miles
The correct answer to the question is B) 5,700 years.
EXPLANATION:
Before going to answer this question, first we have to understand half life period of a radio active substance.
The half life period of a radio active substance is defined as the time in which half of the radio active specimen has undergone decay.
As per the question, the initial concentration of the radioactive carbon-14 is given as 10,000.
Hence, initial concentration .
After 5,700 years, the remaining radio active specimen is 5000. It means that half of the radio active specimen has undergone decay in 5,700 years.
Hence, half life period of the radio active carbon-14 specimen is 5,700 years.
