The time taken for the substance to decay to 1 g of its original mass is 350 mins.

<h3>What is half life?</h3>

The half life of a radioactive element is the time taken for the half of the element to decay to half of its original size.

N = N₀(¹/₂)^t/h

where;

  • N is the remaining mass
  • N₀ is the original mass
  • h is half life
  • t is time

1 = 220(¹/₂)^t/h

1/220 = (¹/₂)^t/h

log(1/220) = log(¹/₂)^t/h

log(1/220) = t/h [log(¹/₂)]

-2.342 = t/h (-0.301)

7.78 = t/h

7.78 x h = t

7.78 x 45 min = t

350 mins = t

Thus, the time taken for the substance to decay to 1 g of its original mass is 350 mins.

A jet is circling an airport control tower at a distance of 20.6 km. An observer in the tower watches the jet cross in front of
lesya [120]

Answer:

197.76 m

Explanation:

r = Radius of the path = 20.6 km = 20.6\times 10^3\ m

\theta = The angle subtended by moon = 9.6\times 10^{-3}\ rad

Distance traveled is given by

s=r\times\theta

\Rightarrow s=20.6\times 10^3\times 9.6\times 10^{-3}

\Rightarrow s=197.76\ m

The distance traveled by the jet is 197.76 m

vazorg [7]

Answer:

Competition/collaborate most likely collaboration

Explanation:

Trust me on this this will be the best and least messy way to handle the problem, first try to see if your sister can give away some of her clothes, does your brother really need the room, and can you find a different place to store your drum set if not, competition. Decide a fair competition, something that no one is better at than the other, decide the rules, no cheating, and whatever the out come try to be mature about it, maybe your parents will reward you and your siblings.
