How many carbon-14 atoms are left after 1 half-life

Physics
1 answer:
Marizza181 [45]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The time it takes for 14C to radioactively decay is described by its half-life. C has a half-life of 5,730 years. In other words, after 5,730 years, only half of the original amount of 14C remains in a sample of organic material. After an additional 5,730 years–or 11,460 years total–only a quarter of the 14C remains.

Explanation:

Hope this helps

Yashoda prepares some lime juice on a hot day. She adds 80 g of ice at a temperature of 0°C to 0.32 kg of lime juice. The temper
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

a )

hear energy required to melt 1 g of ice = 340 J ,

hear energy required to melt 80 g of ice = 340 x 80  J = 27220 J .

b ) energy gained by the melted ice ( water at O°C ) = m ct

where m is mass of water , s is specific heat and t is rise in temperature

= 80 x 4.2 x ( 8°C - 0°C)

= 2688 J .

c )

energy lost by lime juice = energy gained by ice and water

= 27220 J + 2688 J .

= 29908 J .

d )

Let specific heat required be S

Heat lost by lime juice = M S T

M is mass of lime juice , S is specific heat , T is decrease in temperature

= 320 g x S x ( 29 - 8 )°C

= 6720 S

For equilibrium

Heat lost = heat gained

6720 S = 29908 J

S = 4.45 J /g °C .

Which of the following statements is true about earth's magnetic poles
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer: b) they are the areas where Earth's magnetic field is weakest

Explanation:

According to classical physics, a magnetic field always has two associated magnetic poles (north and south), the same happens with magnets. This is because for <em>classical physics</em>, naturally, magnetic monopoles can not exist.  

In this context, Earth is similar to a magnetic bar with a north pole and a south pole. This means, the axis that crosses the Earth from pole to pole is like a big magnet.  

Now, by convention, on all magnets the north pole is where the magnetic lines of force leave the magnet and the south pole is where the magnetic lines of force enter the magnet.  Then, for the case of the Earth, the north pole of the magnet is located towards the geographic south pole and the south pole of the magnet is near the geographic north pole.  

Being the magnetic poles the places where the Earth's magnetic field is weakest. And it is for this reason, moreover, that the magnetic field lines enter the Earth through its magnetic south pole (which is the geographic north pole).

What us the difference in the ways objects move at a speed of a car and an object mkvinf close to the speed of light?​
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

The difference is in who or what is observing the speed.

Explanation:

Giving that speed is relative between the objects and the reference point from which it is being observed.

It is concluded that speed alone has no direct effect on a moving object, hence it is just a determining unit for the difference in distance between two objects.

Therefore, in this case, the difference is in who or what is observing the speed.
