Which of the following would produce the most power?
Fantom [35]

Answer:

A mass of 10 kilograms lifted 10 meters in 5 seconds.

Explanation:

Power can be defined as the energy required to do work per unit time.

Mathematically, it is given by the formula;

Power = \frac {Energy}{time}

But Energy = mgh

Substituting into the equation, we have

Power = \frac {mgh}{time}

Given the following data;

Mass = 10kg

Height = 10m

Time = 5 seconds

We know that acceleration due to gravity is equal to 9.8 m/s²

Power = \frac {10*9.8*10}{5} = 490 Watts

Hence, a mass of 10 kilograms lifted 10 meters in 5 seconds would produce the most power.

A radioactive substance decays exponentially. A scientist begins with 200 milligrams of a radioactive substance. After 17 hours,
lianna [129]

75.17 mg of the radioactive substance will remain after 24 hours.

Answer:

Explanation:

Any radioactive substance will obey the exponential decay behavior. So according to this behavior, any radioactive substance will be decaying in terms of exponential form of disintegration constant and Time.

Disintegration constant is the rate of decay of radioactive elements. It can be measured using the half life time of the radioactive element .While half life time is the time taken by any radioactive element to decay half of its concentration. Like in this case, at first the scientist took 200 mg then after 17 hours, it got reduced to 100 g. So the half life time of this element is 17 hours.

Then Disintegration constant = 0.6932/Half Life time

Disintegration constant = 0.6932/17=0.041

Then as per the law of disintegration constant:

N = N_{0}e^{-xt}

Here N is the amount of radioactive element remaining at time t and N_{0} is the initial amount of sample, x is the disintegration constant.

So here, N_{0} = 200 mg, x = 0.041 and t = 24 hrs.

N = 200 ×e^{-24*0.041} =75.17 mg.

So 75.17 mg of the radioactive substance will remain after 24 hours.

What part of an electric circuit are the wires that carry the electric current
bezimeni [28]

Answer:

okay so, An electric circuit is a closed loop through which current can  actually flow. All electric circuits must have a voltage source, for example a battery, and a conductor, which is usually  a wire.

how does it flow or how does .current flow in a circuit ? When a wire is connected to battery terminals which is electrons, electrons flow from negative to positive. Electrons have a negative charge in case you didnt know. they are repelled from the negative and attracted to the positive.

if this helped please mark this as brainliest!!! :)
