An archaeologist graduate student found a leg bone of a large animal during the building of a new science building. The bone had a carbon-14 decay rate of 14.8 disintegrations per minute per gram of carbon. Living organisms have a decay rate of 15.3 disintegrations per minute. How old is the bone?

Which answer tells the reason the earth’s climate is getting warmer? too many animals are becoming extinct. large glaciers are melting in antarctica. the earth is moving closer to the sun. driving cars gives off gases that trap heat in the atmosphere.

In medium-sized stars such as the sun, nuclear fusion almost always means the fusing of nuclei to form , but larger stars can produce elements as heavy as

Imagine if during the cathode ray experiment, the size of the particles of the ray was the same as the size of the atom forming the cathode. which other model or scientific observation would have also been supported? 1. this would support dalton's postulates that proposed the atoms are indivisible because no small particles are involved. 2. this would support bohr's prediction about electrons moving in orbits having specific energy. 3. this would support bohr's prediction about electrons being randomly scattered around the nucleus in the atom. 4. this would support dalton's postulates that proposed that atoms combine in fixed whole number ratios to form compounds.
