A. The radioactive decay equation is N = N0
where T is the
half-life (5730 years), N0 is the number of atoms at time t = 0 and
N is the number at time t.
Rewriting this as:
(N/N0) =
Since N = (1/8) N0 and
substituting known values:
1/8 = 
Taking ln of both
sides:
ln(1/8)= -ln(2)*t/5730
t = - 5730 * ln(1/8) /
ln (2)
t = 17,190 years
The tree was cut down 17,190
years ago.
B. N0 = 1,500,000 carbon-14 atoms
Since N = (1/8) N0
N = 187,500 carbon
atoms left
Answer:
<u>Our beaches would be unprotected</u>
In the short-term, these artificial sand hills will be destroyed by the elements. Because sand dunes protect inland areas from swells, tides, and winds, they must be protected and defended like national treasures. ... The ocean and the wind can have an unpredictable, destructive force on coastal regions.

Natural sand dunes play a vital role in protecting our beaches, coastline and coastal developments from coastal hazards such as erosion, coastal flooding and storm damage. Sand dunes protect our shorelines from coastal erosion and provide shelter from the wind and sea spray.

Density * Volume = Mass
Now we substitute the values in.
19.3 g/cm^3 + 20 cm^3 = 386 g
Mass = 386 g
Answer:
earth surface is uneven because land heats faster than water causes air to warm.,expand and rise over land while it cools and sinks over the cooler waters surface..
