Tasya [4]1 year ago
4 0

Answer:

1/4 of the original

Explanation:

That would be TWO half lives:

1/2  * 1/2   = 1/4   <======= 1/4 would be left

Why is the weight of an object on the moon 1/6 th its weight on the earth?
ehidna [41]

The mass of moon is 1/100 times and its radius 1/4 times that of earth as a result the gravitational attraction on the moon is about one sixth when compared to earth.

Why are there two fluoride ions in magnesium fluoride but only one fluoride ion in lithium fluoride
postnew [5]
This would be more of a chemistry question. Remember magnesium has a charge of 2+, and would need to hand off its two extra electrons. Fluorine can only take one electron at a time, so there needs to be two fluorines to take one magnesium's 2 electrons. 

With lithium, it has a +1 charge, so it has one extra electron, which it can hand off to just 1 fluorine atom. 

Another way of looking at this is: Mg^{2+} + 2F^{-} = MgF2  (the charges must balance out to zero)

Li^{+} + F^{-} = LiF (the charges balance out to zero)

A series of pulses, each of amplitude 0.1m , is sent down a string that is attached to a post at one end. The pulses are reflect
sp2606 [1]

The net displacement at a point on the string where the pulses cross is 0.2 m.

The term "displacement" refers to a shift in an object's position. It has a magnitude and a direction, making it a vector quantity. An arrow pointing from the starting point to the finishing point serves as its symbol.

A string that is connected to a post at one end is used to transmit a sequence of pulses, each measuring 0.1 meters in amplitude.

At the post, the pulses are reflected and return along the string without losing any of their amplitude.

Now, let's say the ends are free.

There is no inversion on reflection if the end is free. The amplitude at their intersection is 2A.

Now, since A = 0.1 m

Then, 2A = 2(0.1) = 0.2 m

As a result, the net displacement at the string's intersection of two pulses is 0.2 m.

The correct option is (c).
