Answer:

D

Explanation:

Very old rocks would be been formed before said isotopes with short half-lives. We're thinking of a very long geological time. The original rock might be rock C, then years and years later rock Y would be measured. Y can't match C since there's too much unknowns in between.

Answer:

The radioactive isotopes within these brains typically record the ages of the grains-not the time when the sedimentary rock was formed, making it difficult to date using radiometric dating. The half-life of U-235 is 704 million years.

Answer:

Q1. C

Q2 and Q3 are correct.

Explanation:

Since F=ma, and the force is a constant,

for the greatest acceleration, the mass of the ball must be the least.

Thus ball C has the greatest acceleration.

Let's check:

A) F=ma

a=F/m

a= F/68

B) a=F/72

C) a= F/64 (✓)

The smaller the denominator, the larger the value of a.

(Think: 1/2 >1/3)
