The half-life of the radioactive isotope Carbon-14 is about 5730 years. Find N in terms of t. The amount of a radioactive elemen
Fudgin [204]

The complete queston is The amount of a radioactive element A at time t is given by the formula

A(t) = A₀e^kt

Answer:  A(t) =N e^( -1.2 X 10^-4t)

Explanation:

Given

Half life =  5730 years.

A(t) =A₀e ^kt

such that

A₀/ 2 =A₀e ^kt

Dividing both sides by A₀

1/2 = e ^kt

1/2 = e ^k(5730)

1/2 = e^5730K

In 1/2 =  5730K

k = 1n1/2 / 5730

k = 1n0.5 / 5730

K= -0.00012 = 1.2 X 10^-4

So that expressing   N in terms of t, we have

A(t) =A₀e ^kt

A₀ = N

A(t) =N e^ -1.2 X 10^-4t

Newer telephone circuits, built during the last decade, offer higher quality because they were built using analog transmission.
hammer [34]

Answer:

Well, newer telephone circuits built during the last decade are based on the digital transmission, not on the analog transmission. So it's the digital transmission circuit that has made the higher quality. Digital circuits converts the voice signals into the binary codes which is then translated again into the voice signal at the receiving end.

The answer is false.

A small but measurable current of 3.8 × 10-10 A exists in a copper wire whose diameter is 2.5 mm. The number of charge carriers
Karolina [17]

Answer:

a) 4.9*10^-6

b) 5.71*10^-15

Explanation:

Given

current, I = 3.8*10^-10A

Diameter, D = 2.5mm

n = 8.49*10^28

The equation for current density and speed drift is

J = I/A = (ne) Vd

A = πD²/4

A = π*0.0025²/4

A = π*6.25*10^-6/4

A = 4.9*10^-6

Now,

J = I/A

J = 3.8*10^-10/4.9*10^-6

J = 7.76*10^-5

Electron drift speed is

J = (ne) Vd

Vd = J/(ne)

Vd = 7.76*10^-5/(8.49*10^28)*(1.60*10^-19)

Vd = 7.76*10^-5/1.3584*10^10

Vd = 5.71*10^-15

Therefore, the current density and speed drift are 4.9*10^-6

And 5.71*10^-15 respectively

Why aren’t descriptive investigations repeatable
Kobotan [32]

Answer;

It does not have an hypothesis

Explanation;

The goal of descriptive investigation is to describe. It should provide factual, accurate and systematic descriptions of phenomena without attempting to infer causal relationships. It does not answer questions about the how, when, or why a particular phenomenon occurred.

A descriptive investigation includes a question but no hypothesis. Observations are recorded, but no comparisons are made and no variables are manipulated.
