3. A scuba diver was exploring a reef 32.12 m below sea level. The diver ascended to the surface at a rate of 8.8 m/min. (a) Wri

te an equation to model the situation. Use the formula d = rt. (b) Explain why it is reasonable to write the distance, d, as a positive number. (c) How long did it take the diver to reach the surface?

A. T= d/r
A good way to remember this is by making a pyramid with 3 parts and putting distance at the top and rate and time in the other two parts. This way you can visibly see the equation and use it if you need to find one for rate.

B. It's reasonable to write distance as a positive number because distance is always positive. You are not able to have a negative distance. Imagine someone standing on a side walk. Even if they are not moving, their distance is 0 which is positive. If they move backwards or forwards, their distance is still positive because it is more than that 0 and they are gaining something. 

C. Just plug in the numbers into the formula.
T= d/r
T= 32.12 m /<span>8.8 m/min
T= 3.65 min

Blackcap birds (Sylvia atricapilla) migrate out of Germany before wintertime. Prior to the 1960s, all members of a particular bl
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

D- The blackcaps will begin nesting at their wintering sites in Spain or the United Kingdom, resulting in a larger blackcap population migrating back to Germany after the breeding season has ended.

Step-by-step explanation:

By the inhabitants of Spain and the United Kingdom placing feeders out for the blackcaps, the birds in their nesting sites during the winter will have food to eat, meaning a bigger population of the Blackcaps when they return to their main home in Germany.

This best predicts the effect on the blackcap population if humans in the United Kingdom continue to place food in feeders during the winter.

How much of a radioactive kind of thorium will be left after 14,680 years if you start with
babymother [125]

Answer:

8978 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation to find the half-life is:

N(t)= N_{0}e^{-kt}

N(t) = amount after the time <em>t</em>

N_{0} = initial amount of substance

t = time

It is known that after a half-life there will be twice less of a substance than what it intially was. So, we can get a simplified equation that looks like this, in terms of half-lives.

N(t)= N_{0}e^{-\frac{ln(\frac{1}{2}) }{t_{h} } t} or more simply N(t)= N_{0}(\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{1}{t_{h} } }

t_{h} = time of the half-life

We know that N_{0} = 35,912, t = 14,680, and t_{h}=7,340

Plug these into the equation:

N(t) = 35912(\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{14680}{7340} }

Using a calculator we get:

N(t) = 8978

Therefore, after 14,680 years 8,978 grams of thorium will be left.

Hope this helps!! Ask questions if you need!!
