Which method to determine the age of artifacts measures the rate of decay in atoms?

1 answer:

3 0

Answer: Kalium Argon dating

Kalium or Potassium radioactive atom that commonly found in stone or artifact. Since Kalium is radioactive, it will be reduced and converted into another atom(in this case argon) after a set of time. You can determine the time elapsed by comparing the Kalium with argon mass.

A 250 - ω resistor is connected in series with a 4.80 - μf capacitor. the voltage across the capacitor is vc=(7.60v)⋅sin[(120rad

galben [10]

<span>553 ohms The Capacitive reactance of a capacitor is dependent upon the frequency. The lower the frequency, the higher the reactance, the higher the frequency, the lower the reactance. The equation is Xc = 1/(2*pi*f*C) where Xc = Reactance in ohms pi = 3.1415926535..... f = frequency in hertz. C = capacitance in farads. I'm assuming that the voltage and resistor mentioned in the question are for later parts that are not mentioned in this question. Reason is that they have no effect on the reactance, but would have an effect if a question about current draw is made in a later part. With that said, let's calculate the reactance. The 120 rad/s frequency is better known as 60 Hz. Substitute known values into the formula. Xc = 1/(2*pi* 60 * 0.00000480) Xc = 1/0.001809557 Xc = 552.6213302 Rounding to 3 significant figures gives 553 ohms.</span>

A 94.7 kg horizontal circular platform rotates freely with no friction about its center at an initial angular velocity of 1.75 r

Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

The angular velocity of the platform is 1.114 rad/s.

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Mass of the horizontal circular platform = 94.7 kg

Mass of the monkey = 21.1 kg

Initial angular velocity = 1.75 rad/s

A monkey drops a 9.25 kg bunch of bananas

They hit the platform at 4/5 of its radius from the center

Model the platform as a disk of radius 1.63 m

Step 2: Calculate the moment of inertia of the disk

I = ½ * m * r² = ½ * 94.7 * 1.63² = 125.80

Step 3: Calculate the initial angular momentum

I = 125.80 * 1.75 = 220.15

Step 4: Calculate the moment of inertia for the bananas

For the bananas, r = 4/5 * 1.63 = 1.304 m

I = 9.25 * 1.304² = 15.73

Step 5: Calculate Moment of inertia for the monkey

I = 21.1 * 1.63² = 56.06

Step 6: Total moment of inertia = 125.80 + 15.73 + 56.06 = 197.59

Step 7: Calculate final angular momentum = 197.59 * ω

197.59 * ω = 220.15

ω = 220.15 / 197.59

This is approximately 1.114 rad/s.

Two sound waves, from two different sources with the same frequency of 420 Hz travel in the same direction at 336 m/s. The sourc

Tresset [83]

Answer:

Pi(3.14) radians or 180º degrees

Explanation:

First of all, we need to obtain the wavelength of a wave traveling to the speed of sound and 420 Hz of frequency.

The formula is:

$l=wavevelocity/frequency$

where l = wavelength in meters

With current values:

l = 336 [m/s]/420[1/s] = 0.8 meters

Since a complete cycle (360º or 2pi radians) needs 0.8 meters to complete, 0.4 meters or 40 cm is just half of it, making a 180º degree phase or 3.14 radians.
