The concentration of an isotope is 1/500 of its initial value after one day. What is the rate of decay?

Physics

mel-nik [20]3 years ago

The exponential growth/decay formula is given by A = Pe^(rt), where A is the final amount, P is the initial amount, r is the rate of growth/decay and t is time. 

We are given A = (1/500)P and t=1, so substituting:
(1/500)P = Pe^(r*1)
Cancelling out P on both sides:
1/500 = e^r
ln(1/500) = ln(e^r)
r = -6.215

Rate of decay is -6.215 per day.

A circular coil of wire of radius 5.0 cm has 20 turns and carries a current of 2.0 A. The coil lies in a magnetic field of magni
Korvikt [17]

Answer:a. Magnetic dipole moment is 0.3412Am²

b. Torque is zero(0)N.m

Explanation: The magnetic dipole moment U is given as the product of the number of turns n times the current I times the area A

That is,

U = n*I*A

But Area A is given as pi*radius² since it is a circular coil

Radius given is 5cm converting to meter we divide by 100 so we have our radius to be 0.05m. So area A is

A = 3.142*(0.05)² =7.86*EXP {-3} m²

Current I is 2 A

Number of turns is 20

So magnetic dipole moment U is

U = 20*2*7.86*EXP {-3}=0.3142A.m²

b. Torque is given as the cross product of the magnetic field B and magnetic dipole moment U

Torque = B x U =B*U*Sine(theta)

But since the magnetic field is directed parallel to the plane of the coil from the question, it means that the angle between them is zero and sine zero is equals 0(zero) if you substitute that into the formula for torque you will find out that your torque would equals zero(0)N.m

To take off from the ground, an airplane must reach a sufficiently high speed. The velocity required for the takeoff, the takeof
il63 [147K]

<h2> The potential and kinetic energy of airplane are affected by these factors </h2>

Explanation:

When airplane rises up , it requires potential energy . This potential energy can be taken from the kinetic energy of airplane .

Thus if the speed of wind is larger , it can either oppose the motion of velocity or can favour the velocity of airplane  . By which its kinetic energy is effected .

If the weight of airplane is changed , it will effect the potential energy required . Thus heavier plane requires higher potential energy for attaining the same height .

Thus these two factor has important role in the flight of airplane .

A wave has a velocity of 24 m/s and a period of 3.0 s. Calculate the wavelength of the wave.
Katyanochek1 [597]

Velocity (unit:m/s) of the wave is given with the formula:

v=f∧,

where f is the frequency which tells us how many waves are passing a point per second (unit: Hz) and ∧ is the wavelength, which tells us the length of those waves in metres (unit:m)

f=1/T , where T is the period of the wave.

In our case: f=1/3

∧=v/f=24m/s/1/3=24*3=72m
