What is the speed of an object at rest

sammy [17]

The speed of an object is measured by calculating the distance it travels per unit time.
The formula in Physics for calculating speed is = distance/ time.

Since an object at rest is not covering any distance, the speed is always assumed to be 0 m/s.

Uranium-235 decays to thorium-231 with a half-life of 700 million years. When a rock was formed, it contained 6400 million urani

Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

proof in explanation

Explanation:

First, we will calculate the number of half-lives:

$n = \frac{t}{t_{1/2}}$

where,

n = no. of half-lives = ?

t = total time passed = 2100 million years

$t_{1/2}$ = half-life = 700 million years

Therefore,

$n = \frac{2100\ million\ years}{700\ million\ years}\\\\n = 3$

Now, we will calculate the number of uranium nuclei left ( $n_u$ ):

$n_u = \frac{1}{2^{n} }(total\ nuclei)\\\\n_u = \frac{1}{2^{3} }(6400\ million)\\\\n_u = \frac{1}{8}(6400\ million)\\\\n_u = 800\ million$

and the rest of the uranium nuclei will become thorium nuclei ( $u_{th}$ )

$n_{th} = total\ nuclei - n_u\\n_{th} = 6400\ million-800\ million\\n_{th} = 5600\ million$

dividing both:

$\frac{n_{th}}{n_u}=\frac{5600\ million}{800\ million} \\\\n_{th} = 7n_u$

<u>Hence, it is proven that after 2100 million years there are seven times more thorium nuclei than uranium nuclei in the rock.</u>

How does Newton's second law apply to an "Egg Drop" experiment?

Black_prince [1.1K]

Because an object in rest stays in rest until an unequal force pushes it so gravity is pushing on the egg making it drop

A light ray transfers from more to less dense medium at certain condition , if we repeat this experiment by increasing the angle

evablogger [386]

Answer:

The correct option is;

Still constant

Explanation:

The relative refractive index ₁n₂ between the two medium can be as follows;

$_1n_2 = \dfrac{The \ speed \ of \ light \ in \ medium \ 1}{The \ speed \ of \ light \ in \ medium \ 2} = \dfrac{c_1}{c_2}$

Therefore, given that the speed of light in medium 1 is constant and the speed of light on medium 2 is also constant, the relative refractive index ₁n₂ = c₁/c₂ is always constant.
