Answer:
Check the explanation
Explanation:
AT = A0 e(-T/H)
... where A0 is the starting activity, AT is the activity at some time T, and H is the half-life, in units of T.
Substituting what we know, we get...
0.71 = (1) e(-T/5730)
Solve for T...
loge(0.71) = -T/5730
T = -loge(0.71)(5730)
T = 1962 (conservatively rounded, T = 2000)
similarly for all
for aboriginal charcoal
0.28 = (1) e(-T/5730)
Solve for T...
loge(0.28) = -T/5730
T = -loge(0.28)(5730)
T = 7294 (conservatively rounded, T = 7000)
for mayan headdress
0.89 = (1) e(-T/5730)
Solve for T...
loge(0.89) = -T/5730
T = -loge(0.89)(5730)
T = 667 (conservatively rounded, T = 700)
for neanderthal
0.05 = (1) e(-T/5730)
Solve for T...
loge(0.05) = -T/5730
T = -loge(0.05)(5730)
T = 17165 (conservatively rounded, T = 17000)
The answer is c.
Elements on the left side of the table are metals, such as sodium, lithium, potassium, etc.
Elements on the right side are non metals, such as Chlorine, Fluorine, Bromine, etc.
The direction of heat flow is from surroundings to system (air to ice), the dry ice is subliminating.
Answer:
There was an improvement in accuracy. There was no change in precision.
Explanation:
<em>The average mass after recalibration is closer to the mass of the standard, </em>so the recalibration improved the accuracy<em> </em>(the measurement is closer to an accepted 'true' value).
The standard deviation did not change, so the precision (or how disperse the measurements are) was not affected.
