To establish the age of a rock or a fossil, researchers use some type of clock to determine the date it was formed. Geologists commonly use radiometric dating methods, based on the natural radioactive decay of certain elements such as potassium and carbon, as reliable clocks to date ancient events.
Potential Energy (P.E) = Mass x
Acceleration due to Gravity x Altitude. Putting this value in the above equation we get, Dimensional Formula of
Potential energy= M1L2T-2.
Hi, thank you for posting your question herein Brainly.
These physical changes could be classified based on their energy requirements: endothermic or exothermic. Endothermic reaction need to absorb energy, while exothermic reaction need to release the energy in order to achieve spontaneous reactions.
Exothermic: Condensation, Freezing, Deposition
Endothermic: Sublimation, Evaporation, Melting
Answer:
When a candle was blown out, the flame stops immediately but the wick and the wax are both still hot, so pyrolysis continues for a few seconds. Explanation:
To find the ratio of planetary speeds Va/Vb we need the orbital velocity formula:
V=√({G*M}/R), where G is the gravitational constant, M is the mass of the distant star and R is the distance of the planet from the star it is orbiting.
So Va/Vb=[√( {G*M}/Ra) ] / [√( {G*M}/Rb) ], in our case Ra = 7.8*Rb
Va/Vb=[ √( {G*M}/{7.8*Rb} ) ] / [√( {G*M}/Rb )], we put everything under one square root by the rule: (√a) / (√b) = √(a/b)
Va/Vb=√ [ { (G*M)/(7.8*Rb) } / { (G*M)/(Rb) } ], when we cancel out G, M and Rb we get:
Va/Vb=√(1/7.8)/(1/1)=√(1/7.8)=0.358 so the ratio of Va/Vb = 0.358.
