We can calculate years by using the half-life equation. It is expressed as:
A = Ao e^-kt
<span>where A is the amount left at t years, Ao is the initial concentration, and k is a constant.
</span>From the half-life data, we can calculate for k.
1/2(Ao) = Ao e^-k(1620)
<span>k = 4.28 x 10^-4
</span>
0.125 = 1 e^-<span>4.28 x 10^-4 (</span>t)
t = 4259 years
It takes exactly 500 seconds for the sun's radiation to reach the earth or about 8 minutes (8.333333333333... to be exact). Just divide 150 million km by 300,000 km/s. Hope this helps
6.022×10^23 should be correct. Are there any options to choose from?
