Answer:

B. Pluto's orbit is not clear of other objects

Explanation:

Pluto is a dwarf planet and considered as ninth planet of the solar system.

A large body whose orbit do not clear the neighbourhood is classified as a dwarf planet. The gravity of Neptune limit the orbit of Pluto and shares its orbital neighbourhood with many Kuiper belt objects.

Hence, the correct answer is "B. Pluto's orbit is not clear of other objects".

A scientist digs up sample of arctic ice that is 458,000 years old. He takes it to his lab and finds that it contains 1.675 gram

Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

6.70 grams of krypton-81 was present when the ice first formed

Explanation:

Let use the below formula to find the amount of sample

$N= N_0(\frac{1}{2})^n$

where

$n = \frac{t}{t_{\frac{1}{2}}}$

here

t = 458,000 years

$t_{\frac{1}{2}}$ = 229,000

$\frac{t}{t_{\frac{1}{2}}}$ = \ $\frac{ 458,000}{229,000}$

n = $\frac{t}{t_{\frac{1}{2}}}$ = 2.000

Now substituting the values

$1.675 = N_0(\frac{1}{2})^{2.000}}$

$1.675 = N_0\times (0.2500)$

$N_0= \frac{1.675}{0.2500}$

$N_0=6.70$

Suppose an egyptian mummy is discovered in which the amount of carbon-14 present is only about oneone-fifthfifth the amount fo

poizon [28]

We are given the following equation:

y = y0 e^-0.0001216 t

where y = 1/5 y0, y0 is the original amount

So solving for time t:

1/5 y0= y0 e^-0.0001216 t

t = 13,235.51 years

So the human died about 13235.5 years ago

How much heat is required to increase the temperature of 10.0 grams of water 6.0oC? (The specific heat of water is 4.18 J/g x oC

scoray [572]

Heat required in a system can be calculated by multiplying the given mass to the specific heat capacity of the substance and the temperature difference. It is expressed as follows:

Heat = mC (T2-T1)
Heat = 10.0 g (4.18 J/g-C ) ( 6.0 C )
Heat = 250.8 J
