For a fixed initial speed, the range of a projectile is determined by the angle at which it is fired. For all but the maximum, there are two angles that give the same range. Considering factors that might affect the ability of an archer to hit a target, such as wind, explain why the smaller angle (cl

An archaeologist sometime in the future analyzes the iron used in an old building. The iron contains tiny amounts of nickel-63, with a half-life of 92 years. On the basis of the amount of nickel-63 and its decay products found, it is estimated that about 0.78% (1/128) of the original nickel-63 remain
