Answer:

D) the decay rates of radioactive uranium and lead

Explanation:

As we know that when she found the substance it must have some fixed ratio of radioactive uranium and Lead in that substance.

Here since Uranium is radioactive substance so it will continuously convert into Lead and this ratio will change with time

So here we can say that the ratio of radioactive uranium and lead will depend on its decay rate

now to find the age of the substance we can find the present ratio of lead and uranium in that substance and then compare it with freshly prepared substance.

so by the formula

we can find the age of the sample

A 10-kilogram bicycle is traveling at a speed of 2m/s. what is the bike's kinetice energy?

madam [21]

The kinetic energy of an object of mass m moving with speed v is given by:
$K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2$
For the bicycle in our problem, $m=10 kg$ and $v=2 m/s$ , so the kinetic energy is
$K= \frac{1}{2}(10 kg)(2 m/s)^2=20 J$

Energy Conservation With Conservative Forces: If a spring-operated gun can shoot a pellet to a maximum height of 100 m on Earth,

crimeas [40]

Answer:

h' = 603.08 m

Explanation:

First, we will calculate the initial velocity of the pellet on the surface of Earth by using third equation of motion:

2gh = Vf² - Vi²

where,

g = acceleration due to gravity on the surface of earth = - 9.8 m/s² (negative sign due to upward motion)

h = height of pellet = 100 m

Vf = final velocity of pellet = 0 m/s (since, pellet will momentarily stop at highest point)

Vi = Initial Velocity of Pellet = ?

Therefore,

(2)(-9.8 m/s²)(100 m) = (0 m/s)² - Vi²

Vi = √(1960 m²/s²)

Vi = 44.27 m/s

Now, we use this equation at the surface of moon with same initial velocity:

2g'h' = Vf² - Vi²

where,

g' = acceleration due to gravity on the surface of moon = 1.625 m/s²

h' = maximum height gained by pellet on moon = ?

Therefore,

2(1.625 m/s²)h' = (44.27 m/s)² - (0 m/s)²

h' = (1960 m²/s²)/(3.25 m/s²)

A dart is thrown at a dartboard 3.66 m away. When the dart is released at the same height as the center of the dartboard, it hit

lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

The angle is $\theta = 15.48^o$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The distance of the dartboard from the dart is $d = 3.66 \ m$

The time taken is $t = 0.455 \ s$

The horizontal component of the speed of the dart is mathematically represented as

$u_x = ucos \theta$

where u is the the velocity at dart is lunched

$distance = velocity \ in \ the\ x-direction * time$

substituting values

$3.66 = ucos \theta * (0.455)$

=> $ucos \theta = 8.04 \ m/s$

From projectile kinematics the time taken by the dart can be mathematically represented as

$t = \frac{2usin \theta }{g}$

=> $usin \theta = \frac{g * t}{2 }$

$usin \theta = \frac{9.8 * 0.455}{2 }$

$usin \theta = 2.23$

=> $tan \theta = \frac{usin\theta }{ucos \theta } = \frac{2.23}{8.04}$

$\theta = tan^{-1} [0.277]$

$\theta = 15.48^o$

If both of these balls are traveling down a bowling lane at the SAME speed, which one would would have more kinetic energy?

Mariana [72]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>Ball A has more kinetic energy</u>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

As we know that Kinetic energy is given by

K. E = 1/2 mv²

Since K E is dependent upon both mass and velocity so increasing mass will produce more kinetic energy if the speed remains constant

As the mass of ball A is greater than ball B so we can say that the kinetic energy of ball is more than ball B
