Friction stole the book's kinetic energy, and turned it into heat energy ... which blew away in the breeze.
Answer:
8. 2.75·10^-4 s^-1
9. No, too much of the carbon-14 would have decayed for radiation to be detected.
Explanation:
8. The half-life of 42 minutes is 2520 seconds, so you have ...
1/2 = e^(-λt) = e^(-(2520 s)λ)
ln(1/2) = -(2520 s)λ
-ln(1/2)/(2520 s) = λ ≈ 2.75×10^-4 s^-1
___
9. Reference material on carbon-14 dating suggests the method is not useful for time periods greater than about 50,000 years. The half-life of C-14 is about 5730 years, so at 65 million years, about ...
6.5·10^7/5.73·10^3 ≈ 11344
half-lives will have passed. Whatever carbon 14 may have existed at the time will have decayed completely to nothing after that many half-lives.
Answer:
a = 2.94 m/s²
Explanation:
In order for the cup not to slip, the unbalanced force on cup must be equal to the frictional force:
Unbalanced Force = Frictional Force
ma = μR = μW
ma = μmg
a = μg
where,
a = maximum acceleration for the cup not to slip = ?
μ = coefficient of static friction = 0.3
g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²
Therefore,
a = (0.3)(9.8 m/s²)
<u>a = 2.94 m/s²</u>
The answer is A.number of protons in the nucleus.
14 ms is required to reach the potential of 1500 V.
<u>Explanation:</u>
The current is measured as the amount of charge traveling per unit time. So the charge of electrons required for each current is determined as the product of current with time.
As two different current is passing at two different times, the net charge will be the different in current. So,
The electric voltage on the surface of cylinder can be obtained as the ratio of charge to the radius of the cylinder.
Here 
, q is the charge and R is the radius. As 
and R =17 cm = 0.17 m, then the voltage will be
The time is required to find to reach the voltage of 1500 V, so
So, 14 ms is required to reach the potential of 1500 V.
