The oldest lunar rock samples are approximately 4.4 billion years old and composed of anorthosite, a mineral that crystallizes and rises to the top of a lava ocean.
The Hydrogen bomb is a thermonuclear bomb where a fission reaction is used to trigger a fusion reaction.
Answer: Option A
<u>Explanation:
</u>
The Concept of Hydrogen Bomb or H-Bomb is primarily based on nuclear fusion where different isotopes of hydrogen diffuse to fuse their atomic nuclei into a bigger atom, releasing a significant and enormous amount of energy that can ruin a half of the world.
A hydrogen or thermonuclear bomb contains a firearm, but the reaction process has two stages. Uses primary fission energy to activate the next fusion reaction. The energy out by the fusion is nearly four times more than the energy out during fission, which gives more power to a hydrogen bomb.
Answer:
Explanation:
The relation between activity and number of radioactive atom in the sample is as follows
dN / dt = λ N where λ is disintegration constant and N is number of radioactive atoms
For the beginning period
dN₀ / dt = λ N₀
58.2 = λ N₀
similarly
41 = λ N
dividing
58.2 / 41 = N₀ / N
N = N₀ x .70446
formula of radioactive decay
- λ t = ln .70446 = - .35
t = .35 / λ
λ = .693 / half life
= .693 / 5715
= .00012126
t = .35 / .00012126
= 2886.36
= 2900 years ( rounding it in two significant figures )
