Suppose that you measure the intensity of radiation from carbon-14 in an ancient piece of wood to be 20 of what it would be in a freshly cut piece of wood How old is this artifact?

We have to see what fraction 6% represents. Start dividing 100% by two and see what percent we get after each half life. After 1 half life we have 50%, after 2 we have 25%, after 3 we have 12.5% and after 4 we have 6.25%. So about 4 half lives. Carbon-14 has a half life of 5730 years, so the wood is 4 x 5730 or 22,920 years

Suppose that you measure the intensity of radiation from carbon-14 in an ancient piece of wood to be 6 percent of what it would be in a freshly cut piece of wood How old is this artifact?
Based on the half-life of carbon-14 (about 5730 years), if the intensity of radiation from carbon-14 in the ancient wood is 6 percent of that in a fresh piece, the wood is approximately 3 half-lives old (5730 years x 3 = 17,190 years). Therefore, the artifact is roughly 17,190 years old.
What are good artifacts to bring to school for Benedict Arnold?
An artifact is an artificially made object with historical significance. I suppose a good artifact for Benedict Arnorld would be his sword, if you can find it, or papers, medals, and anything that could be proven to be his or associated with him.
When was ben day dots birthday?
Ben Day Dots is not a person (well, I suppose it's possible that some unfortunate individual has that name), it's a type of printing artifact. It doesn't have a "birthday."
What is directly related to the concentration of solutions?
I suppose that you think to the density, viscosity, refractive index, radiation absorption etc.
Suppose the amount of radiation that could be received from a microwave oven varies inversely as the square of the distance from it How many feet away must you stand to reduce your potential radiatio?
Suppose the amount of radiation that could be received from a microwave oven varies inversely as the square of the distance from it. How many feet away must you stand to reduce your potential radiation exposure to the amount you could receive standing 1 foot away?
The troposphere receives most of its heat energy from the?
The major contribution in heating the troposphere comes from the sun's radiation. The sun warms the ground by radiation, which in turn warms the air heating the troposphere.
Which type of radiation has no mass or charge?
Gamma radiation has no mass or charge. It consists of high-energy photons and is a form of electromagnetic radiation.
Are Sandra Rochefort spiritual powers real?
no, they are not, she sent me a letter one time that was suppose to be for ordering her report on your year as well as an ancient artifact passed down by only by powerful pyschics (this actual item, I know exactlly where to buy one just like it in my home town) was of course no real artifact at all and doesn't cost as much as she said in the letter it was worth. anyone can claim an object is pychic or whatever but that doesn't make it so
Do radiation waves bounce off of other waves?
Radiation waves, such as light waves, can be reflected off surfaces just like normal waves. However, the behavior of radiation waves can also be influenced by other waves depending on their frequency and amplitude. This interaction is known as wave interference.

How is heat transferred from the sun to a solar heating panel?
Solar panels don't generate heat; they convert the energy of sunlight into electrical energy, which I suppose could be used to generate heat.
