Answer:
thanks for the points man
Nuclear decay formula is N(t)=N₀*2^-(t/T), where N(t) is the amount of nuclear material in some moment t, N₀ is the original amount of nuclear material, t is time and T is the half life of the material, in this case carbon 14. In our case N(t)=12.5% of N₀ or N(t)=0.125*N₀, T=5730 years and we need to solve for t:
0.125*N₀=N₀*2^-(t/T), N₀ cancels out and we get:
0.125=2^-(t/T),
ln(0.125)=ln(2^-(t/T))
ln(0.125)=-(t/T)*ln(2), we divide by ln(2),
ln(0.125)/ln(2)=-t/T, multiply by T,
{ln(0.125)/ln(2)}*T=-t, divide by (-1) and plug in T=5730 years,
{ln(0.125)/[-ln(2)]}*5730=t
t=3*5730=17190 years.
The bone is t= 17190 years old.
Answer:

Explanation:
(see image for further explanation)
Answer:
3100 m/s
Explanation:
The relationship between frequency and wavelength of a wave is given by the wave equation:

where
v is the speed of the wave
f is its frequency
is the wavelength
For the wave in this problem,
f = 15,500 Hz

Therefore, the wave speed is

Answer:
1/60 mps
Explanation:
We would first have to divide 60 by 60 because there is 60mins per hour to get 1mpm. After that we would have to divide 1 by 60 because there are 60 secs in a min. So our final answer after doing 1/60 would be a fraction.
