Describe the disadvantages of using uranium-238 for dating.

Physics
1 answer:
son4ous [18]3 years ago
3 0

Explanation:

Mostly in metamorphic or lava materials is uranium-238 contained. Then no fossil could be estimated utilizing U 238 specifically. They should never be used combined due to the huge variations in the half-life of Carbon 14 with Uranium-238. It is only possible to be using carbon 14 to classify fossil from a very current generation.

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

Option 2. It cuts through all the other layers

Explanation:

Newer or younger rocks are usually formed from older rocks in the sense that older rocks are broken up, and their by product materials forming together to make younger rocks.

We can simply say that older rocks basically undergo recycling to form newer rocks.

Thus, looking at the given options,

For option 1, the newer rock cannot be crumpled while the others lie flat because it is the old one that is undergoing recycling and therefore the older one is the one that will be crumpled to give way for newer rocks. So it's not true.

For option 2, since they are from older rocks, they will clearly cut through the other layers of the old one because the old one will give way for the new one.

Option 3 is not true for the same reason given for option 1.

Option 4 is not true because there is no standard way in which it will be positioned

You are driving down the highway late one night at 20 m/s when a deer steps onto the road 35m in front of you. Your reaction tim
8090 [49]

Answer:

- Distance between car and the deer when the car stopped = 20 m

- The time required for you to stop once you press the brakes = less than 5 s in order not to hit the deer.

Explanation:

Using the equations of motion,

In the 0.5 s reaction time, we need to first calculate how far he has travelled in that time.

a = 0 m/s² (Since the car is travelling at constant velocity)

x = ?

Initial velocity = u = 20 m/s

x = ut + at²/2

x = 20×0.5 + 0 = 10 m

From that moment,

a = - 10 m/s²

u = initial velocity at the start of the deceleration = 10 m/s

v = final velocity = 0 m/s

x = ?

v² = u² + 2ax

0² = 10² + 2(-10)(x)

20x = 100

x = 5 m

Total distance travelled from when the deer stepped onto the road = 10 + 5 = 15 m

Distance between car and the deer when the car stopped = 35 - 15 = 20 m

b) To determine the time required to stop once you step on the brakes

u = 10 m/s

t = ?

v = 0 m/s²

x = distance from when the brake was stepped on to the deer = 35 - 10 = 25 m

x = (u + v)t/2

25 = (10 + 0)t/2

10t = 50

t = 5 s

Meaning the time required to stop once you step on the brakes is less than 5s.

Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

ΔVab = Ed

ΔVab = Va-Vb = Va-V0 = Va

E = Va/ d

   = 413V / 0.0795 m

    = 5194.97 V/M

Explanation:

the potential difference between two uniform plates is calculated by the formula of electric field.
