A paleontologist estimates that when a particular rock formed, it contained 12 mg of the radioactive isotope potassium-40, which

leva [86]

Answer:

$t = 2.52 billion \:years$

Explanation:

As we know by radioactivity law

$N = N_o e^{-\lambda t}$

so here we will have

$N = 3 mg$

$N_o = 12 mg$

now we will have

$3 = 12 e^{-\lambda t}$

$\lambda t = ln 4$

now we also know that

$\lambda = \frac{ln2}{1.26 \times 10^6 yrs}$

$t = 1.26\times 10^6\times \frac{ln4}{ln2}$

$t = 2.52 billion \:years$

Where could convection currents form? Check all that apply.

KatRina [158]

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

In a freshwater lake
In the atmosphere
In Earth's mantle

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>

<em><u>Convection currents are types that cause the process of convection, which the transfer of heat energy that occurs in fluids.</u></em>
<em><u>Convection currents are circular patterns that occurs in fluids such that the less dense warm fluids rises up while denser cold fluids sinks, </u></em>it is this movement of less dense warm fluid and denser cold fluids that creates circular patterns that causes the process of convection to take place.
<em><u>Convection currents may occur in the atmosphere where warm air rises while cold denser air sinks or moves towards the bottom, it may also occur in the mantle of the Earth and water or water bodies such as lakes.</u></em>

A piece of driftwood moves up and down as water waves pass beneath it. However, it does not move toward the shore with the waves

pantera1 [17]

Answer:

It's A

Explanation:

As the waves progress through the medium, the particles they are made of move perpendicular to the direction in which the waves move. The particles do not move with the wave. So waves transmit energy but not matter as they progress through a medium.
