An anthropologist has determined that a newly discovered human bone is 8000 years old. how much of the original amount of carbon

-14 is in the bone?
SAT
1 answer:
AlladinOne [14]2 years ago
7 0

The original amount of carbon 14 that is in this bone is 38.29%

The formula that is used to determine the original amount of carbon 14 in the bone is given as:

y = ae^-^0^.^0^0^0^1^2^t

The value of t is given as 8000.

What is to be done is to solve the equation using the value of t

y = ae^-^0^.^0^0^0^1^2^(^8^0^0^0^)

= ae⁻⁰.⁹⁶

Solve for exp(-0.96)

y = 0.3829a

= 38.29%

Therefore the amount of carbon 14 that is in the bone is 38.29%

<h3>What is carbon 14?</h3>

This is a method of radiocarbon that isused in the age determination of substances. That is after the dacay of nitrogen.

This gave 160 acres of land to new settlers out on the great plains so long as they "improved it.
exis [7]

The Homestead Act of 1862 gave 160 acres of land in the Great Plains in the western United States.  The law was signed on May 20, 1862, by  President Abraham Lincoln. The Homestead Act encouraged migration and opened up settlements to any American, including freed slaves, to own, use and improve the land.


The law required that the new settlers will have to pay a minimal filing fee and to live continuously on the land for five years for them to receive full ownership of the land.


By 1865 (the end of the Civil War), there were 15,000 homestead claims that have been established, with more following in the subsequent years.

suppose you push a hockey puck of mass m across frictionless ice for a time 1.0 s, starting from rest, giving the puck speed v a
saul85 [17]

Answer: Twice the previous time would be taken to reach the same speed v with the puck of mass 2m.

Explanation:

Let a Force pushes the hockey puck of mass m.

Then acceleration, a= \frac{F}{m}a=mF

From the equation of motion,

\begin{gathered}\➪ v=u+at\\ v=0+\frac{F}{m}\Delta t\end{gathered}⇒v=u+atv=0+mFΔt ......(1)

In the second case, when mass is 2m, then acceleration,

a'=\frac{F}{2m}a′=2mF

and t' is the time taken.

The final speed is v,

\begin{gathered}\➪ v=0+ a't'\\ \➪ \frac {F}{m}\Delta t=\frac{F}{2m}t'\\ \➪ t'= 2\Delta t\end{gathered}⇒v=0+a′t′⇒mFΔt=2mFt′⇒t′=2Δt using equation (1)

Hence, it would take two times the previous amount of time to push the pluck of double mass.
