Answer and Explanation:

The texture of the slabs affects the type of bonding the water molecules has with each other.

The dry glass slab allows the water to form cohesive bonds with each other, making the water stick to itself and not the slab, which makes it flow uniformly, or regularly.

The Waxed glass slab has a different texture that forms an adhesive-type bonding with water, making the water stick to the slab at certain parts/forming the spherical droplets.

In the equation F = Kq1 q2/r2 solve for q2. Solve for r.

Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

r = √(k q₁ q₂ / F)

Explanation:

F = k q₁ q₂ / r²

Multiply both sides by r²:

F r² = k q₁ q₂

Divide both sides by F:

r² = k q₁ q₂ / F

Take the square root of both sides:

r = √(k q₁ q₂ / F)

The ratio of carbon-14 to nitrogen-14 is an artifact is 1:3. Given that half-life of carbon-14 is 5730years, how old is the arti

dusya [7]

Answer:

9155 years old

Explanation:

We use the following expression for the decay of a substance:

$N = N_0\,\,e^{-k*t}$

So we first estimate the value of k knowing that the half-life of the C14 is 5730 years:

$N = N_0\,\,e^{-k*t}\\N_0/2=N_0\,\,e^{-k*5730}\\1/2 = e^{-k*5730}\\ln(1/2)=-k*5730\\k= 0.00012$

so, now we can estimate the age of the artifact by solving for"t" in the equation:

$1/3=e^{-0.00012*t}\\ln(1/3)= -0.00012*t\\t=9155. 102$

which we can round to 9155 years old.
