Answer:

• A prism is a polygon and hedron like substance [ polyhedron ] with polygonal edges hence forming rectangular, rhombical or pallarelogramic surfaces.

• There are four prism types;

  • Reflecting prisms
  • Dispersion prisms
  • Displacement prisms
  • Rotation prisms.

The half-life of carbon-14 is 5730 years. how long will it take for 7/8 of a sample of carbon-14 to decay
wlad13 [49]
The half life of Carbon-14 is 5730 years, how many years would it take for 7/8 of the original amount to decay? 

<span>Can somebody please help with this problem. I *think* I understand the basics of what a half life is. If I learned correctly, its the amount it takes for half of a sample to decay. It should also happen exponentially, 1/2 remaining after one half life, 1/4 after the second, 1/16 after the third etc. I'm still a little shaky though. Could somebody please clarify what exactly a half life is and how it can be determined (i.e. how to find the time it would take for 7/8 to decay) </span>

A football player kicks a football in a field goal attempt. When the football reaches its maximum height, what is the relationsh
Stels [109]

At position of maximum height we know that the vertical component of its velocity will become zero

so the object will have only horizontal component of velocity

so at that instant the motion of object is along x direction

while if we check the acceleration of object then it is due to gravity

so the acceleration of object is vertically downwards

so it is along y axis

so here these two physical quantities are perpendicular to each other

so correct answer would be

<em>C)At the maximum height, the velocity and acceleration vectors are perpendicular to each other. </em>
