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.

Hope this helps

Show that the optimal launch angle for a projectile subject to gravity is 45o by carrying out the following steps: 6. Write down
Lorico [155]

Answer:

sin  2θ = 1    θ=45

Explanation:

They ask us to prove that the optimal launch angle is 45º, for this by reviewing the parabolic launch equations we have the scope equation

            R = Vo² sin 2θ / g

Where R is the horizontal range, Vo is the initial velocity, g the acceleration of gravity and θ the launch angle. From this equation we see that the sine function is maximum 2θ = 90 since sin 90 = 1 which implies that θ = 45º; This proves that this is the optimum angle to have the maximum range.

We calculate the distance traveled for different angle

          R = vo² Sin (2 15) /9.8

          R = Vo² 0.051 m

In the table are all values ​​in two ways

Angle (θ)                  distance R (x)

 0                 0                     0

15                 0.051 Vo²        0.5 Vo²/g

30                0.088 vo²        0.866   Vo²/g

45                0.102 Vo²        1   Vo²/g

60                0.088 Vo²      0.866   Vo²/g

75                0.051 vo²        0.5   Vo²/g

90                0                     0

See graphic ( R Vs θ)  in the attached ¡, it can be done with any program, for example EXCEL

The Gibson family have bought tickets to the Christmas Market. There are 4 mothers, 2 grand-mothers and 4 daughters. What is the
koban [17]
The minimum number of tickets that could admit all of them is six (6).

This thing is impossible to explain in words, so I shall attempt it with a diagram:

Here are the six ladies:

       ( A )      ( B )
          |           |
          |           |
       ( C )      ( D )
          |           |
          |           |
       ( E )       ( F )  

--  'E'  and  'F'  are the daughters of  'C'  and  'D' .

--  'C'  and  'D'  are the daughters of  'A'  and  'B' .

So look what we have now:

--  'A'  and  'B'  are the mothers of  'C'  and  'D' .
     There's 2 of the mothers.

--  'C'  and  'D'  are the mothers of  'E'  and  'F' .
     There's the OTHER 2 mothers. 
 
--  'A'  and  'B'  are the grandmothers of  'E'  and  'F' .
    There's the 2 grandmothers.

--  'E'  and  'F'  are the daughters of  'C'  and  'D' .
     There's 2 of the daughters.

--  'C'  and  'D'  are the daughters of  'A'  and  'B' .
     There's the OTHER 2 daughters.

You want to know what ? !
The group is even bigger than THAT.
There are also 2 GRAND-daughters in the family ...  'E'  and  'F' .

So now you have a list of 12 people ! ... 4 mothers, 2 grandmothers,
4 daughters, and 2 grand-daughters ... and they all get in to the
Christmas Market with only six tickets.    Legally !

Such a deal !

Don't forget :  Christmas this year is also the first day of Chanukah !
                     All for the same price !
