Name three stars that are hotter than the sun
devlian [24]

Eta Carinae could be as large as 180 times the radius of the Sun, and its surface temperature is 36,000-40,000 Kelvin. Just for comparison, 40,000 Kelvin is about 72,000 degrees F. So it's the blue hypergiants, like Eta Carinae, which are probably the hottest stars in the Universe.

How are half life and radioactive decay related
hoa [83]

Answer : Half life and radioactive decay are inversely proportional to each other.

Explanation :

The mathematic relationship between the half-life and radioactive decay :

N=N_oe^{-\lambda t}              ................(1)

where,

N = number of radioactive atoms at time, t

N_o = number of radioactive atoms at the beginning when time is zero

e = Euler's constant = 2.17828

t = time

\lambda = decay rate

when t=t_{1/2} then the number of radioactive decay become half of the initial decay atom i.e N=\frac{N_o}{2}.

Now substituting these conditions in above equation (1), we get

\frac{N_o}{2}=N_oe^{-\lambda t_{1/2}}

By rearranging the terms, we get

\frac{1}{2}=e^{-\lambda t_{1/2}}

Now taking natural log on both side,

ln(\frac{1}{2})=-\lambda \times t_{1/2}

By rearranging the terms, we get

t_{1/2}=\frac{0.693}{\lambda}

This is the relationship between the half-life and radioactive decay.

Hence, from this we conclude that the Half life and radioactive decay are inversely proportional to each other. That means faster the decay, shorter the half-life.
