Answer:

The correct answer would be = t = 2.112 billion years

Explanation:

Given:

The number of crystal of uranium = 275 billion

The number of crystal of lead = 1925 billion

The half-life for 235U = 704 million years

Formula using :

N = N0e−λt

where,

no. of daughter atoms = N

at time t= 0, No. of parent atoms = N0.

Time  = T

Half life = 0.693/λ

Decay constant = λ

Solution:

by putting value in the formula of the half-life

λ = 0.693/0.704

λ = 0.9844

Now, putting value in the formula for the age of granite.

275 = (275+1925)e^-0.9844 t

1/8= e^-0.9844 t

e^0.9844 t = 8

taking log

0.9844t = 2.07944

t = 2.112 billion years

Regarding human traits, which individual would most likely agree with aristotle?
fiasKO [112]

Regarding human traits,  Locke would most likely agree with Aristotle.

There are more areas where Aristotle and Locke's philosophical views diverge than where they concur. For instance, Aristotle once claimed that a person's happiness was just as important to them as it was to their political community. The political understanding of Locke, however, is different because, in his view, a government only assumes responsibility for a portion of the human rights that it is meant to protect in accordance with what people deem to be right. Individuals are therefore given priority because they have rights that are inalienable and shouldn't be manipulated by people to fit their agenda. These and other traditional philosophies have been used to analyze and comprehend early philosophy.

Explanation:

If the concentration of molecules outside the cell is very high relative to the internal cell concentration, the rate of diffusion will also be high. If the internal and external concentrations are similar (low concentration gradient) the rate of diffusion will be low.
