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.

You are a crane operator using a wrecking ball to demolish an old building. You can choose to use a 100-kg ball or a 150-kg ball
Elenna [48]

Answer:

The answer to the question is

The two balls, although of different masses, could be made to have the same demolishing force by setting the velocity of the 100 kg ball to 1.5 times the velocity of the 150 kg ball.

That is if V₁ is the velocity of the 150 kg ball and  V₂ is the velocity of the 100 kg ball then V₂  = 1.5×V₁ for the demolishing effect of the two balls to be equal.

Explanation:

To answer the we are required to explain the meaning of momentum and state its properties

Momentum is a physical property of an object in motion. It indicates the amount of motion inherent in the object.  An object in motion is said to have momentum

The types of momentum possessed by an object can be classified into either

1, Linear momentum or

2. Angular momentum

An object moving with a velocity, v has linear momentum while a spinning object has an angular momentum

The momentum is given by the formula

P = m × V

Where m = mass and

V = velocity

Newtons second law of motion states that, the force acting on an object is equivalent to the rate of change of momentum produced and acting in the direction of the force

Properties of momentum

From the above statements it means that the two balls can be made equivalent by having the appropriate amount of speed. That iis the two balls can have the same momentum thus for equal momentum effect, we have

150 kg × V₁ = 100 kg × V₂

or V₂ = 1.5×V₁

On which of saturn’s moons did the cassini-huygens probe land in 2004, providing our first view of the varied and active surface
yawa3891 [41]

On Titan, the largest moon of of Saturn did the Cassini-Huygens probe land in 2004.

To find the answer, we have to know more about the Cassini-Huygens Mission.

<h3>What is Cassini-Huygens mission?</h3>
  • Before arriving at its final destination of Saturn in 2004 and beginning a series of flybys of Saturn's moons, the spacecraft contributed to studies of Jupiter for six months in 2000.
  • In the same year, it launched the Huygens probe to explore Titan's atmosphere and surface makeup on Saturn's moon.
  • During its second extended mission, Cassini sailed between the rings, entered the planet's atmosphere, and obtained the first measurements of a whole seasonal period for Saturn and its moons.

Thus, we can conclude that, on Titan, the largest moon of of Saturn did the Cassini-Huygens probe land in 2004.
