Answer: Scientists believe the missing carbon has found a sink in the Northern Forest. Scientist have come up with this idea because they believe consequences of global warming contributed to significant extent to the northern forest carbon sinking processes. In addition to that, scientists describe a process where the oceans of the world sink carbon to create a balance of the ecosystem. That is why they are not 100% sure.
Explanation:
Answer:
age of the site is 15411.75 years old
Explanation:
Given data
plant or animal dies = 14C
time period = 5730 year
carbon = 15.5%
to find out
age (in years) of the ancient site
solution
we know that Final value = Initial value × 
here n is half life passed
so for 15.5%
15.5% = 100% of
0.155 = 1 ×
now take log both side
log 0.155 = log
n = log 0.155 / log 0.5
n = 2.68966
we know here 5730 years in half life
so for 2.68966 half-lives = 2.68966 × 5730 = 15411.7518
age of the site is 15411.75 years old
Answer:
7200 kg.m/s
Explanation:
According the law of conservation of linear momentum, the sum of momentum before and after collision are equal.
Using this principle, the sum of initial momentum will be given as p=mv where p is momentum, m is mass and v is velocity
Initial momentum
Mass of whale*initial velocity of whale + mass of seal*initial seal velocity
Since the seal is initially stationary, its velocity is zero. By substitution and taking right direction as positive
Initial momentum will be
1200*6+(280*0)=7200 kg.m/s
Since both initial and final momentum should be equal, hence the final momentum will also be 7200 kg.m/s
Answer:
s = 11.78 m
Explanation:
given,
acceleration due to gravity, g = 3.77 m/s²
mass of the rock = 15 g
time = 2.5 s
distance traveled = ?
using equation of motion
initial speed = 0 m/s
s = 11.78 m
distance traveled by the rock is equal to 11.78 m.
