The half-life of Th-232 is 1.405 × 10¹⁰ years
Time elapsed = 2.8 x 10⁹ years
Equation of radioactive decay:
A = A₀ = (1/2)^ t/t₁/₂
Thus, the percentage of thorium-232 in the rock that was dated at 2.8 billions year = 87.1%
Answer:
1) They are the same line so they match equally bc they are measuring the same thing just one is more specific than the other
2) Sonar measures all depths at every possible point and maps it including all the gaps in between the 5cm apart the ocean floor is. The difference between the points could be a cliff or a smooth decline.
