Ln(800/3200) = - kt
t = 24 years.
ln(0.25) = -k*24
(- 1.3863) = -k*24
1.3863 / 24 = k
0.05776 = k
ln(0.5) = -k*t
-0.6931 = - 0.05776 t
12 = t
I don't know if you can just look at the question and know the answer. If 24 years is a quarter life then is it obvious that the 1/2 life is 12 years? It might be, but the method I've used works for sure.
Answer: -
A) 3.59
Explanation: -
The number of significant figures in 2.06 = 3
The number of significant figures in 1.743 = 4
The number of significant figures in 1.00 = 3
During multiplication of significant figures, the number of significant figures in the answer would be the smallest value that is 3 in this case.
2.06 x 1.743 x 1.00 = 3.5908.
The answer to 3 significant figures is
2.06 x 1.743 x 1.00 = 3.59
Thus, Andi when performs the calculation that is shown below.
(2.06)(1.743)(1.00)
the answer be reported using the correct number of significant figures as A) 3.59
Thermal energy when solid, liquor , and gas combine
Answer:
Heat flows from the reactor to the water
Explanation:
The thermal energy mentioned in the description is another way to say heat. The energy that is produced by the nuclear reactions leaves the reactor and enters the water, warming it.
The passage does <em>not </em>say that heat flows in the form of electricity, but rather that the turbines turned by the steam produce electricity.
The passage does <em>not </em>say that the steam produces the heat, but rather that the boiling of the water (caused by the heat) produces steam.
