Answer:

<h3>The binding energy of sodium Na=<em>5.407791×10⁹J</em></h3>

Explanation:

<h3>Greetings !</h3>

Binding energy, amount of energy required to separate a particle from a system of particles or to disperse all the particles of the system. Binding energy is especially applicable to subatomic particles in atomic nuclei, to electrons bound to nuclei in atoms, and to atoms and ions bound together in crystals.

<h2>Formula : Eb=(Δm)c²</h2><h3>where:Eb= binding energy</h3><h3> .Δm= mass defect(kg)</h3><h3> c= speed of light 3.00×10⁸ms¯¹</h3><h2 /><h3><u>Given</u><u> </u><u>values</u></h3>

m= 18.02597
c=3.00×10⁸ms¯¹

<h3><u>required </u><u>value</u></h3>

Eb=?

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Eb=(Δm)c²
Eb=(18.02597)*(3.00*10⁸ms¯¹
Eb=5.407791*10⁹J

8. Three grams of Bismuth-218 decay to 0.375 grams in one hour. What is the half-

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer: 0.333 h

Explanation:

This problem can be solved using the <u>Radioactive Half Life Formula</u>:

$A=A_{o}.2^{\frac{-t}{H}}$ (1)

Where:

$A=0.375 g$ is the final amount of the material

$A_{o}=3 g$ is the initial amount of the material

$t=1 h$ is the time elapsed

$H$ is the half life of the material (the quantity we are asked to find)

Knowing this, let's substitute the values and find $h$ from (1):

$0.375 g=(3 g)2^{\frac{-1h}{H}}$ (2)

$\frac{0.375 g}{3 g}=2^{\frac{-1h}{H}}$ (3)

Applying natural logarithm in both sides:

$ln(\frac{0.375 g}{3 g})=ln(2^{\frac{-1 h}{H}})$ (4)

$-2.079=-\frac{1 h}{H}ln(2)$ (5)

Clearing $H$ :

$H=\frac{-1h}{-2.079}(0.693)$ (6)

Finally:

$h=0.333 h$ This is the half-life of the Bismuth-218 isotope

The diameter of an atom is 1.1×10−10m and the diameter of its nucleus is 1.0×10−14m. Part A What percent of the atom's volume is

77julia77 [94]

To solve this problem we will use the basic concept given by the Volume of a sphere with which the atom approaches. The fraction in percentage terms would be given by the division of the total volume of the nucleus by that of the volume of the atom, that is,

$\% Percent = \frac{V_{nucleus}}{V_{atom}}*100$

$\% Percent = \frac{4/3 \pi (d_{nucleus}/2)^3}{4/3 \pi (d_{atom}/2)^3}*100$

$\% Percent = \frac{(d_{nucleus}/2)^3}{ (d_{atom}/2)^3}*100$

$\% Percent =\frac{(1.0*10^{-14}/2)^3}{ (1.1*10^{-10}/2)^3}*100$

$\% Percent = 7.51*10^{-13}*100$

$\% Percent = 7.51*10^{-11}\%$

Therefore the percent of the atom's volume is occupied by mass is $7.51*10^{-11}\%$

Small rockets are used to make small adjustments in the speed of satellites. One such rocket has a thrust of 42 N. If it is fire

Over [174]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to Newton's second law that relates force as the product between acceleration and mass. From there, we will get the acceleration. Finally, through the cinematic equations of motion we will find the time required by the object.

If the Force (F) is 42N on an object of mass (m) of 83000kg we have that the acceleration would be by Newton's second law.

$F = ma \rightarrow a = \frac{F}{m}$
