Chapter 5, Problem 15SEQ
Explain all answers clearly, with complete sentences and proper essay structure if needed. An asterisk (*) designates a quantitative problem, for which you should show all your work.
Change in Formation Properties. Choose either size or distance from the Sun and suppose it had been different for Earth. (For example, suppose Earth had been smaller in size or at a greater distance from the Sun.) Describe how this change might have affected Earth’s subsequent history and the possibility of life on Earth.

Radiocarbon dating is the most common and important absolute dating technique in archaeology. The method has proven invaluable for providing calendar dates for a range of different materials and many different time periods. Radiocarbon dating, however, is not without its limitations and uncertainties, so it is important for archaeologists to be aware of a range of issues when using the technique. For the second part of this assignment, please answer the questions below.
6. List two kinds of archaeological materials can be dated using the radiocarbon method and two that cannot be dated with radiocarbon.
7. In one or two sentences, explain why radiocarbon ages need to be calibrated into calendrical ages?
8. A radiocarbon date on wood charcoal was obtained from Layer N in the stratigraphic profile above. The date has a radiocarbon age of 5500 BP ± 50 yrs and it calibrates to 4450-4260 cal. BC. Burial W in Layer E was also dated and has a radiocarbon age of 5000 BP ± 30, which…
