Testing shows that a sample of wood from an artifact contains 25% of the
daser333 [38]

Answer:

The artifact is 11,460 years old.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Given that,

The half life of the carbon-14 is 5730  years and we are left with 255 of the sample of wood from an arti-fact.

So it takes 5730 years for the sample to reduce into half

Initially there will be 100% of the sample so

after first 5730 years, the sample reduces into 50% percent

Now the left 50% sample will take another 5730 years to decay into half of its amount.

after next 5730 years  the sample reduces into 25% percent

So totally after 2 half-life the sample reduces into 25%

That is (5730 +5730) years = 11460 years

A swimmer bounces almost straight up from a diving board and falls vertically feet first into a pool.she starts with a speed of
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

a) 1.20227 seconds

b) 0.98674 m

c) 7.3942875 m/s

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity = 4.4 m/s

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow 0=4.4-9.81\times t\\\Rightarrow \frac{-4.4}{-9.81}=t\\\Rightarrow t=0.44852\ s

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow s=4.4\times 0.44852+\frac{1}{2}\times -9.81\times 0.44852^2\\\Rightarrow s=0.98674\ m

b) Her highest height above the board is 0.98674 m

Total height she would fall is 0.98674+1.8 = 2.78674 m

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 2.78674=0t+\frac{1}{2}\times 9.81\times t^2\\\Rightarrow t=\sqrt{\frac{2.78674\times 2}{9.81}}\\\Rightarrow t=0.75375\ s

a) Her feet are in the air for 0.75375+0.44852 = 1.20227 seconds

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow v=0+9.81\times 0.75375\\\Rightarrow v=7.3942875\ m/s

c) Her velocity when her feet hit the water is 7.3942875 m/s

A proton has been accelerated from rest through a potential difference of -1000 v . part a what is the proton's kinetic energy,
wlad13 [49]
We can apply the law of conservation of energy here. The total energy of the proton must remain constant, so the sum of the variation of electric potential energy and of kinetic energy of the proton must be zero:
\Delta U + \Delta K=0
which means
\Delta K = - \Delta U
The variation of electric potential energy is equal to the product between the charge of the proton (q=1eV) and the potential difference (\Delta V=-1000 V):
\Delta U = q \Delta V=(1 eV)(-1000 V)=-1000 eV
Therefore, the kinetic energy gained by the proton is
\Delta K = -(-1000 eV)=1000 eV
<span>And since the initial kinetic energy of the proton was zero (it started from rest), then this 1000 eV corresponds to the final kinetic energy of the proton.</span>
