What are the different isotopes of carbon and which isotopes are relevant for carbon dating?

Physics
1 answer:
GuDViN [60]3 years ago
3 0
Ans: Radiocarbon dating uses carbon isotopes.

Radiocarbon dating relies on the carbon isotopes carbon-14 and carbon-12. Scientists are looking for the ratio of those two isotopes in a sample. Most carbon on Earth exists as the very stable isotope carbon-12, with a very small amount as carbon-13.

HELP ASAP! <br>why is rolling friction much smaller than sliding friction? Also give an example.​
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

Rolling friction is much smaller than sliding friction because Rolling friction is considerably less than sliding friction as there is no work done against the body that is rolling by the force of friction. For a body to start rolling a small amount of friction is required at the point where it rests on the other surface, else it would slide instead of roll.

Rolling Friction example: Anything with weels (cars,skateboards) or a ball rooling.

Sliding Friction example: Bicycle brakes,skinning your knee walking,writing.

the illuminance on a surface is 6 lux and the surface is 4 meters from the light source. What is the intensity of the saurce?
Lelechka [254]
L = illuminance
A = surface
i = intensity

L = i / A ==: i = L * A

i = 6 lux * 4 m^2 = 24 lumen

Help please! Will give brainliest to first correct answer!
Olegator [25]

Answer:

1) Addition of a catalyst

2) To change the reaction rate of slope B to look like slope A, simply add a catalyst to speed up the rate of reaction, giving you a higher amount of products in a shorter amount of time (line A)

Explanation:

1 and 2)Two things can alter the rate of a reaction, either the addition of a catylist which will not alter the composition of the products or reactants, but will accelerate the reaction time, or an increase in temperature will also increase the rate at which a reaction will occur.

You could choose temperature also and have the same result, it's your choice both are correct, but catalyst is the easiest.

Heat transfer by radiation depends on ____​
notsponge [240]

Answer:

Infrared

Explanation:

This is the electromagnetic spectrum just above the visible light spectrum with higher energy (and higher frequency). This electromagnetic radiation is responsible for feeling the heat when you place your hand close to the side of a fire. It is also harnessed in night vision where bodies that emit some form of heat are visible due to their emission of IR.
