Answer:

correct answer is 3(Is it the most unusual rock in the area)

Explanation:

Option 1:

During the formation of a rock some quantity of radioactive elements mixed with it. By measuring the quantity of this radioactive element scientist can determine the age of the rock which is known as absolute age.

option 2:

Throgh scientific investigation scientist can determine the types of minerals which make up the rock

option 3:

Through scientific investigation scientist cannot determine whether the rock is the most unusual or not. It can be determine by just looking all the rock in the area.

Option 4

Through scientific investigation the weight of the rock can be determine and it can be determine whether it is the heaviest rock in the backyard.

What are the units, if any, of the particle in a box wavefunction. What does this mean?
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

  • [\psi]= [Length^{-3/2}]
  • This means that the integral of the square modulus over the space is dimensionless.

Explanation:

We know that the square modulus of the wavefunction integrated over a volume gives us the probability of finding the particle in that volume. So the result of the integral

\int\limits^{x_f}_{x_0} \int\limits^{yf}_{y_0} \int\limits^{z_f}_{z_0} |\psi|^2 \, dz \,  dy \,  dx

must be dimensionless, as represents a probability.

As the differentials has units of length

[dx]=[dy]=[dz]=[Length]

for the integral to be dimensionless, the units of the square modulus of the wavefunction has to be:

[\psi]^2 = [Length^{-3}]

taking the square root this gives us :

[\psi] = [Length^{-3/2}]

A 0.43 kg hammer is moving horizontally at 5.2 m/s when it strikes a nail and comes to rest after driving the nail 0.014 m into
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

The duration of the impact is 0.005384 seconds

Explanation:

Given

m = 0.43 kg

v = 5.2 m/s

x = 0.014 m

Knowing the formulas

v^{2}_{f} = v^{2}_{i} + 2ax\\0 = 5.2^{2}  + 2a*0.014\\a = - 965.71 m/s^{2} \\\\vf = vi + at\\0 = 5.2 + (965.71)t\\t = 0.005384 s

A sample of ore containing radioactive strontium 38Sr90 has an activity of 8.2 × 105 Bq. The atomic mass of strontium is 89.908
ahrayia [7]

From the activity values and the decay constant, the mass of of Strontium in the sample is:

1.62 × 10^{-7}g

<h3>What is the decay constant of an element?</h3>

The decay constant of an element is the probability of decay of a nucleus per unit time.

{λ = ln 2 / t1/2 

where;

t1/2 is the half-life of the isotope.

The half-life is converted to seconds since the decay constant is asked in per seconds.

28.8 years = 28.8 × 3.156 × 10^{7} = 908928000 s \\

Hence;

λ = \frac{ln2}{90892800s} = 7.626 s^{-1}

                                       

The activity of the element, A, the decay constant, λ and the number of nuclei, N are related as follows:

  • A = (–) λN

N = \frac{8.25 ×10^{5}}{7.626×10^{-10}} = 1.082 × 10^{15}              

Molar mass of Strontium-90 is 90 g.

1 mole of Strontium-90 contains 6.02×10^23 nuclei.

The mass, m of Strontium in the sample is calculated:

m = 1.082 × 10^{15} × \frac{90 g}{6.02 × 10^{23}} = 1.62 × 10^{-7}g \\

Therefore, the mass of of Strontium in the sample is:

1.62 × 10^{-7} \: g
