Techniques used to date the Turin Shroud and rocks?
The Turin Shroud has been dated using radiocarbon dating, which measures the decay of carbon-14 isotopes to determine the age of organic materials. For rocks, scientists use methods like radiometric dating, which measures the decay of radioactive elements like uranium to determine the rocks' age. Other techniques include optically stimulated luminescence dating for sedimentary rocks and thermoluminescence dating for ceramics and burned stones.

What if a 1944 steel penny looks like a copper one but is magnetic?
Then it isn't a genuine US coin. All steel cents were dated 1943, and while there were some steel cents struck in 1944, all of them would look steel because the copper cents weren't plated with anything so they would be a steel cent dated 1944 not a copper-looking cent dated 1944.
Is it possible to prove that a scietific theory is false?
It's very easy to do so. Show that a theory (or hypothesis) being true would result in a certain observation. Then show that this observation is NOT found. For example, if dinosaurs and humans both existed on this planet in the last 10,000 years (as creationists contend), then we should find BOTH human DNA and dinosaur DNA. We easily find human DNA in bones amongst rocks dated over 50,000 years old; but we've never found one single dinosaur bone with one speck of DNA. Thus, the idea that dinosaurs and humans both existed on this planet at some point in the last 10,000 years has been completely refuted -- no intelligent person dedicated to scientific truth can hold to it. It has been proven false.
What physical difference can you detect from pennies that are dated before 1982 verses pennies that are dated after 1982?
Pennies dated before 1982 are typically made of 95% copper, giving them a reddish-brown color and a higher weight. Pennies dated after 1982 are made of a zinc core with a thin copper plating, giving them a lighter weight and a more golden appearance.
How old is the wheel?
The wheel has dated back to the dinosaur age. Jarrod Yungbluth
The process that uses a half-life in its computation is A.evolution B.adaptation C. intrusion D. radioactive dating?
The process that uses a half-life in its computation is radioactive dating. This is the way that dinosaur bones and other fossils are accurately dated.
Most sedimentary rocks are readily dated by radiometric methods True False?
False. Most sedimentary rocks cannot be directly dated by radiometric methods because they are composed of sediments that were already eroded and transported from existing rocks. Instead, geologists use relative dating techniques to determine the sequence of events in which sedimentary rocks were formed.
True or False Fossils may be dated by either the relative dating method which determines the relative order of fossils or by the absolute dating method which uses radioactive isotopes?
True. Fossils can be dated using both relative dating methods, which determine the sequence of events in which fossils occurred, and absolute dating methods, which rely on radioactive isotopes to calculate the age of fossils.
Why wouldn't you expect to find human fossils and dinosaur fossils together in rocks dated similarly?
Because they did not exsist at the same time.

What famous things have been carbon dated?
Carbon dating is an important tool for archeologists. Two famous things that have been carbon dated include the Dead Sea Scrolls and the Shroud of Turin. This has allowed scientists to determine the age and authenticity of these items.
What is the value of a 1909 Jefferson penny?
Jefferson's picture is on nickels dated 1938 and later. Lincoln's picture is on cents dated 1909 and later. Please determine which one you have and post a new question.
Does a police report need to be signed and dated by the suspending officer?
All official reports must be signed and dated by the officer submitting them. Without a signature they are not "legal" documents in that it is impossible to determine their attribution.
How can you determine if a check is valid?
To determine if a check is valid, you should verify that it is properly filled out with the correct date, payee, amount in numbers and words, and signature of the account holder. Additionally, ensure that the check is not post-dated or stale-dated, and that the account has sufficient funds to cover the amount written on the check.
When is Season 6 of the TV series 'Bones' due to premiere?
S6 of Bones is dated to be airing September 16, 2010 with 23 episodes.Source: http://bones.community.fox.com/go/thread/view/101374/24837853/What_about_Season_6!!?post_id=448941821#448941821
How do dinosaur fossils give evidence of a world-wide flood?
The Biblical flood would have caused the death of all life on earth, except for those on the arc, which would have resulted in fossils that are now found. Fossils being found in different layers of rocks could have been a result of how they settled as the waters receded.
