Why cant you date an old stone tablet by doing carbon-14?
Carbon-14 decay is normally used to date organic matter. A better way to date rocks is by measuring the decay of potassium, uranium and other elements.
What date was magnets found?

Weight of a penny?
depends sometimes on the date that it was made
Does dot physical expire on the date given?
The expiration date should be both on the long form and your DOT medical card. It can be valid for up to 24 months, but can also be for less in cases where age, medical condition, etc. becomes a factor. The expiration date is the day it expires - there is no grace period.
On what date was the ballpoint pen invented?
It was in 1888 by John Loud
When was the carbon dating test done on the shroud of turin?
The Shroud of Turin was carbon dated with a probable creation date in the 14th century CE.
What material was the Shroud of Turin imprinted on?
AnswerThe Shroud of Turin was made from a linen cloth with a twill weave, as used during the Middle Ages. It has been carbon-dated to around 1250-1390 CE, which is consistent with the date of the reported forger's confession.
What is the Shroud of Turin made from?
The actual material of the shroud is linen, produced around 1250-1390 CE. In 1988, three laboratories (at Oxford, Zurich, and the University of Arizona) used accelerator mass spectrometry to carbon-date samples of the shroud, all arriving at approximately the same age. Microanalyst Walter C. McCrone examined tape-lifted samples from the shroud and identified the supposed blood as tempera paint containing red ochre and vermilion along with traces of rose madder. The shroud is made of linen which was used 2000 year ago.
Is the Shroud of Turin evidence that Jesus existed?
A:No. It is believed to be a medieval forgery. But even if it really did date from the first century and really came from Jerusalem, it would only prove that someone was crucified and buried in that shroud. The Romans crucified thousands of men in Jerusalem. The shroud appears to be a single piece of cloth that draped over the entire body, including the head. John's Gospel tell us that the cloth was wrapped around Jesus, not draped, and that there was a separate cloth covering his head, as was Jewish custom in the first century.
How does determining the ages of igneous rocks help to date fossils?
Igneous intrusions that crosscut sedimentary rock that contain fossils can provide a date range because igneous rock is datable by radioactive decay techniques.
What did mineral evidence show about the Shroud of Turin?
A:Microanalyst Walter C. McCrone examined tape-lifted samples from the shroud and identified the supposed blood as tempera paint containing red ochre and vermilion along with traces of rose madder. Three laboratories (at Oxford, Zurich, and the University of Arizona) used accelerator mass spectrometry to carbon-date samples of the linen. The results all stated that the linen was produced around 1250-1390 CE.
What is the mystery of the Shroud of Turin?
The Shroud of Turin is an ancient cloth constructed of linen that bears the image of a man believed to have been crucified. There are many today that believe it is the original burial cloth of Jesus Christ..AnswerFor a very complete analysis of the shroud of Turin and its history, please see the website below:
How did they know how old the Shroud of Turin is?
The cloth now known as the Shroud of Turin first appeared about 1355 at a little church in Liry, in north-central France. According to a later bishop's report, written in 1389 by Pierre D'Arcis to the Avignon pope, Clement VII, the shroud was being used as part of a faith-healing scam. D'Arcis wrote of a predecessor who conducted an investigation which uncovered the forger: "Eventually, after diligent inquiry and examination, he discovered the fraud and how the said cloth had been cunningly painted, the truth being attested by the artist who had painted it, to wit that it was a work of human skill and not miraculously wrought or bestowed." So, from the earliest days of the Shroud, it was already known to be a recent creation, by the admission of the artist who painted it.Tests in 1988, by three laboratories (at Oxford, Zurich, and the University of Arizona) used accelerator mass spectrometry to carbon-date samples of the linen. The results were in close agreement and were given added credibility by the use of control samples of known dates. The resulting age span was in the range 1250 to 1390 CE, consistent with the date of the reported forger's confession.
How does the Shroud of Turin prove Jesus existed?
A:As a medieval forgery, the Shroud of Turin tells us nothing about the death of Jesus. If indeed it were the very shroud in which Jesus was buried, it would contradict the description in John's Gospel and thus cast doubt on the Gospel as a whole.John 19:39-40, 20:5-7 specifically state that the body was 'wound' with linen cloths and a large quantity of burial spices ( myrrh and aloes). Still another cloth (the napkin) covered his face and head, as was Jewish custom during the first century. In contrast, the Shroud of Turin represents a single, draped cloth with an image of the face and head. It was not wound around the body and there was no separate napkin covering the face of the image. Also, there is no evidence of any burial spices.
Scientists date igneous rocks to indirectly date nearby sedimentary rocks Why doesn't radiometric dating typically work on sedimentary rocks?
Sedimentary rocks contain bits of sediment, each much older than the rocks they form
How was the Shroud of Turin dated?
AnswerThe cloth now known as the Shroud of Turin first appeared about 1355 at a little church in Liry, in north-central France. This places a latest date on the shroud. In 1389 bishop Pierre D'Arcis wrote to the Avignon pope, Clement VII, that the shroud was being used as part of a faith-healing scam and spoke of a predecessor who conducted the investigation and uncovered the forger: "Eventually, after diligent inquiry and examination, he discovered the fraud and how the said cloth had been cunningly painted, the truth being attested by the artist who had painted it, to wit that it was a work of human skill and not miraculously wrought or bestowed." This places the shroud firmly in the fourteenth century.Tests in 1988, by three laboratories (at Oxford, Zurich, and the University of Arizona) used accelerator mass spectrometry to date samples of the linen. The results were in close agreement and were given added credibility by the use of control samples of known dates. The resulting age span was circa 1250-1390 CE, which is entirely consistent with the correspondence from Bishop D'Arcis to Pope Clement VII.After the carbon dating results became known, someone put out a false story that the tests were done on one of the patches from the 1532 fire, thus supposedly yielding a late date. A Russian scientist, Dmitrii Kuznetsov, claimed to have established experimentally that heat from a fire like that of 1532 could alter the radiocarbon date, but others could not replicate his alleged results and it turned out that his physics calculations had been plagiarised, complete with an error (Ian Wilson, The Blood and the Shroud). No credence can now be given to this falsified report, and so the carbon-dating results must stand.
