Element X decays radioactively with a half life of 13 minutes. If there are 560 grams

Mathematics

deff fn [24]2 years ago

The time taken for the element X to decay from 560 grams to 150 grams is 24.7 mins

<h3>How to determine the number of half-lives </h3>
  • Original amount (N₀) = 560 g
  • Amount remaining (N) = 150 g
  • Number of half-lives (n) =?

2ⁿ = N₀ / N

2ⁿ = 560 / 150

2ⁿ = 3.73

Take the log of both side

Log 2ⁿ = Log 3.73

nLog 2 = Log 3.73

Divide both side by Log 2

n = Log 3.73 / Log 2

n = 1.9

<h3>How to determine the time </h3>
  • Number of half-lives (n) = 1.9
  • Half-life (t½) = 13 mins
  • Time (t) =?

t = n × t½

t = 1.9 × 13

t = 24.7 mins

Hey there!

1/3 = ?/12

If we observe denominator , it is multiplied by 4

So we must multiple numerator by 4 too

=> 1/3 x 4/4 = 4/12

? = 12.

How to solve for x and y
Minchanka [31]

<u>Answer-</u>

<em>The values of </em><em>x and y are 20° and 30</em><em>, respectively.</em>

<u>Solution-</u>

As in the given triangle all the angles are same so it must a equilateral triangle.

In an equilateral triangle all the measurements of the angles and side length are same. The measurement of the angels are 60°.

As given in the question one side length is 46, so all the side length are same.

So,

\Rightarrow y+16=46\\\\\Rightarrow y=46-16\\\\\Rightarrow y=30

We know that an exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the opposite interior angles. 80° is the exterior angle opposite to x and one angle of triangle at the top vertex.

\Rightarrow 80^{\circ}=x+60^{\circ}

\Rightarrow x=80^{\circ}-60^{\circ}

\Rightarrow x=20^{\circ}

Therefore, the values of x and y are 20° and 30, respectively.
