<u>Answer:</u>

The towns like Chambersburg, Green Village, and Shippensburg are approximately 10 miles apart from each other because the settlers of the Green Village chose to settle at a location central to both the larger towns of Chambersburg and Shippensburg.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • The town of Shippensburg which settled in 1730 was one of the first town settlements in the valley of Cumberland.
  • The town of Chambersburg shortly settled at a distance of only a few miles from the town of Shippensburg.
  • After a few years, the settlers of the present-day Green Village chose to settle at a location that was central to both these larger towns.
  • Thus, the towns of Chambersburg, Green Village, and Shippensburg fall approximately 10 miles apart from each other.

A radioactive isotope of the element potassium decays to produce argon. If the ratio of argon to potassium in a mineral is found
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

After three half-lives, it is 7:1

Explanation:

  • The rate at which the decay of the radioactive isotope is said to be half-life and is represented as the half-life of the atoms and the matter to disintegrate itself.
  • The two radioactive isotopes are K 40 and Ar 40. After the K-Ar dating, they contain minerals such as the clay mica and the temphra minerals and Half-life of the K 40 is 1.3 more than 100,000 years i.e 10x9 years for Ar 40.
  • <u>Thus the K 40 has to divide as three half-lives have passed if the ratio of argon to potassium atoms is 7:1. At the end of one half-life, the ratio of the number of argon to potassium atoms is 1:1. and two half lives its 3:1 thus after the third half-life it becomes as 7:1.</u>

Adam, who is 5'6" tall, notices his shadow on the sidewalk. If the angle of elevation from the tip of the shadow to the sun is 6
german
<h2>Answer:</h2>

This problem can be solved using trigonomtry, assuming that the figure formed by Adam's shadow and Adam himself is a Right Triangle (as shown in the figure attached).


According to this,  the distance from the tip of the shadow to the top of Adam's head is the hypotenuse H of the triangle, and we already know Adam's height and the angle of elevation. So, the trigonometric function that best works in this case is sine:


sen(angle)=\frac{Oppositeleg}{hypotenuse}  


Where the opposite leg is the side of the triangle that is opposite to the 60\º angle.

In this especific case:


sen(60\º)=\frac{5.6feet}{H}     (1)


In order to know the value of the hypotenuse we have to find  H from equation (1):

H=\frac{5.6feet}{sen(60\º)}



H=6.4663 feet



Rounding:

H=6.46 feet>>>>>This is the distance from the tip of the shadow to the top of Adam's head
