The decay of uranium isotopes is used to provide information about the age of Earth.
<h3>
Explanation:</h3>
Isotopes of Uranium U-232, U-233 , U-234 , U-235 , U-236 , U-238 are used as fuel in nuclear reactors or as explosives for nuclear weapons. Uranium 238 is not very radioactive and it constitutes for nearly 99.3% of natural uranium on Earth and has the longest lifetime: its period is 4.5 billion years, about the age of Earth.
Use of radiometric dating techniques help in defining the age of substances (natural or man-made) using the known decay rates of radioactive elements. Each element has an individual decay rate and half life time.
Two Uranium isotopes (U-238 and U-235) are used for radiometric dating. Both the isotopes have different decay rates and half life period. Both are unstable and radioactive. Since two different isotopes produce two different decay clocks (one as a reference to other), it is beneficial in accurately determining the age of samples. The age of earth (rocks or other natural elements) can be easily determined using Uranium isotopes.
If the sediments are put down, it's deposition
If the sediments are being moved, it's erosion
Answer:
Solar energy is used and made into chemical energy that is glucose used water and carbon dioxide (CO2) and also Oxygen (O2) is released as a output as well
