After one half-life, 8 g of radioactive isotope will remain in the sample.

<h3>What is radioactivity?</h3>

The act of producing radiation spontaneously is known as radioactivity. This is accomplished by an unstable atomic nucleus that want to give up some energy in order to move to a more stable form.

The following formula is used to compute the number of half lives elapsed:

\rm N=\frac{N_0}{2^n} \\\\ N=\frac{16}{2} \\\\ N= 8 \ gram

Hence,8 gram of radioactive isotope remains in the sample after 1 half-life.

What is the name of the phenomenon that causes observed light from a star to change its wavelength?
blagie [28]

Answer: This is called the Doppler effect, where waves shift frequency and wavelength as the source travels towards you (higher frequency, shorter wavelength) or away from you (lower frequency, longer wavelength)

A 1000-kilogram car traveling with a velocity of 20. meters per second decelerates uniformly at -5.0 meters per second2 until it
Elis [28]

Answer:

-20000 kgm/s

Explanation:

Impulse: This can be defined as the product of the mass of a body and its change in velocity. The S.I unit of impulse is kgm/s.

Mathematically, impulse can be expressed as

I = m(v-u).............. Equation 1.

Where I = impulse applied to the car to bring it to rest, m = mass of the car, u = initial velocity of the car, v = final velocity of the car.

Given: m = 1000 kg, u = 20 m/s, v = 0 m/s ( to rest)

Substitute into equation 1

I = 100(0-20)

I = 1000(-20)

I = -20000 kgm/s

Hence the impulse applied to the car to bring it to rest = -20000 kgm/s

A 1.00-kg object is attached by a thread of negligible mass, which passes over a pulley of negligible mass, to a 2.00-kg object.
Anna [14]

Answer:

a = 3.27 m/s²

v = 2.56 m/s

Explanation:

given,

mass A = 1 kg

mass B = 2 kg

vertical distance between them = 1 m

F_d = mg

F_d = 2 \times 9.8

F_d = 19.6\ N

F_u = mg

F_u = 1 \times 9.8

F_u = 9.8\ N

F_{net} = 19.6 - 9.8

F_{net}=9.8\ N

F = (m_1+m_2)a

9.8 = (2+1)a

a = 3.27 m/s²

The speed of the system at that moment is:

v² = u² + 2×a×s

v² = 0² + 2× 3.27 × 1

v ² = 6.54

v = 2.56 m/s
