Carbon-14 is used to determine the time an organism was living. The amount of carbon-14 an organism has is constant with the atm

lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

The age of the organism is approximately 11460 years.

Explanation:

The amount of carbon-14 decays exponentially in time and is defined by the following equation:

$\frac{n(t)}{n_{o}} = e^{-\frac{t}{\tau} }$ (1)

Where:

$n_{o}$ - Initial amount of carbon-14.

$n(t)$ - Current amount of carbon-14.

$t$ - Time, measured in years.

$\tau$ - Time constant, measured in years.

Then, we clear the time within the formula:

$t = -\tau \cdot \ln \frac{n(t)}{n_{o}}$ (2)

In addition, time constant can be calculated by means of half-life of carbon-14 ( $t_{1/2}$ ), measured in years:

$\tau = \frac{t_{1/2}}{\ln 2}$

If we know that $\frac{n(t)}{n_{o}} = 0.25$ and $t_{1/2} = 5730\,yr$ , then the age of the organism is:

$\tau = \frac{5730\,yr}{\ln 2}$

$\tau \approx 8266.643\,yr$

$t = -(8266.643\,yr)\cdot \ln 0.25$

$t \approx 11460.001\,yr$

The age of the organism is approximately 11460 years.

HALP me!! This is a physics question.

<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>Distance covered is 6.9 meters</u>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Data given:

Work Done = 345 kJ = 345000 J

Force = 5 x 10 ^ 4 = 50000 N

Distance = ?

Solution:

As we know that

Work Done = Force applied x Distance covered

By arranging the equation we get

Work / Force = Distance covered

By putting the values

345000 / 50000 = 6.9

So distance covered is 6.9 meters

An 87.6 g lead ball is dropped from rest from a height of 7.00 m. The collision between the ball and the ground is totally inela

bija089 [108]

Taking specific heat of lead as 0.128 J/gK = c

We have energy of ball at 7.00 meter height = mgh = $87.6*10^{-3}*9.81*7$

When leads gets heated by a temperature ΔT energy needed = mcΔT

= $87.6*10^{-3}*0.128*10^3$ ΔT

Comparing both the equations

$87.6*10^{-3}*9.81*7$ = $87.6*10^{-3}*0.128*10^3$ ΔT

ΔT = 0.536 K

Change in temperature same in degree and kelvin scale

So ΔT = 0.536 $^0C$

A water line with an internal radius of 5.29 x 10-3 m is connected to a shower head that has 15 holes. The speed of the water in

fiasKO [112]

Answer:

(a) 3.44 x 10^-3 m^3/s

(b) 8.4 m/s

Explanation:

area of water line, A = 5.29 x 10^-3 m

number of holes, N = 15

Speed of water in line, V = 0.651 m/s

(a) Volume flow rate is given by

V = area of water line x speed of water in water line

V = 5.29 x 10^-3 x 0.651 = 3.44 x 10^-3 m^3/s

(b) area of one hole, a = 4.13 x 10^-4 m

Let v be the velocity of water in each hole

According to the equation of continuity

A x V = a x v

5.29 x 10^-3 x 0.651 = 4.1 x 10^-4 x v

v = 8.4 m/s
