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

Physics

GuDViN [60]3 years ago

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.

Why is it important to use placebos and a double-blind approach in some studies
viktelen [127]
Another name for these two words is "constant" and you want to have a "constant", because you want something to compare your experimental group to, to see whether data had changed or not. So you have placebos or a double- blind to compare your experimental group to it and also so you know you don't have a bias or anything in the study.

How long does it take for an airplane to change its velocity from 140 m/s to 180 m/s if its
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

Explanation:

a = 4ms⁻²,  Vf = 180 m/s  &  Vi = 140m/s

a = \frac{Vf-Vi}{t}

4 = \frac{180-140}{t}

t = 40/4

t = 10sec

To Measure Distance Use third Equation of Motion:

2aS = Vf²-Vi²

S = \frac{180*180 - 140*140}{2(4)}

S = 12800/8 = 1600m

How can a small spark start a huge explosion? using electric forces and molecules
OLga [1]

Answer:

Small sparks can lead to huge explosion if they are left unattended.

Explanation:

Small sparks are not harmful but if these sparks happen near some hazardous material or object then it could lead to heavy explosion. If there is some chemical substance near the spark or there are magnetic lines which can explode the spark then these minor sparks could result in heavy disastrous explosion.

A wheel at rest gains an angular momentum of 10.7kgm²/s in 8s. if the moment if inertia of the wheel is 2.2kgm², how many revolu
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

Revolutions made before attaining angular velocity of 30 rad/s:

θ = 3.92 revolutions

Explanation:

Given that:

L(final) = 10.7 kgm²/s

L(initial) = 0

time = 8s

<h3>Find Torque:</h3>

Torque is the rate of change of angular momentum:

T = \frac{L(final)-L(initial)}{t}\\T = \frac{10.7-0}{8}\\T=1.34 Nm

<h3>Find Angular Acceleration:</h3>

We know that

T = Iα

α = T/I

where I = moment of inertia = 2.2kgm²

α = 1.34/2.2

α = 0.61 rad/s²

<h3>Find Time 't'</h3>

We know that angular equation of motion is:

ω²(final) = ω²(initial) +2αθ

(30 rad/s)² = 0 + 2(0.61 rad/s²)θ

θ = (30 rad/s)²/ 2(0.61 rad/s²)

θ = 24.6 radians

Convert it into revolutions:

θ = 24.6/ 2π

θ = 3.92 revolutions
