An example for gaining potential energy would be: A glass bottle on the top of a high shelf would have more high potential energy than a glass bottle on the middle or bottom shelf because it has a long way or more farther to fall down or brake.

Explanation:

Remember Potential Energy is the restored energy of an object has.

I hope this helps you!

I will show you a method to find a velocity of anything:-

Find average velocity when acceleration is constant.

Set up an equation with position and time instead.

Find the distance between the start and end points.

Calculate the change in time.

Divide the total displacement by the total time.

Solve problems in two dimensions.

A radioactive isotope of potassium (k) has a half-life of 20 minutes. if a 43 gram sample of this isotope is allowed to decay fo

Ksenya-84 [330]

Hello!

The half-life is the time of half-disintegration, it is the time in which half of the atoms of an isotope disintegrate.

We have the following data:

mo (initial mass) = 43 g

m (final mass after time T) = ? (in g)

x (number of periods elapsed) = ?

P (Half-life) = 20 minutes

T (Elapsed time for sample reduction) = 80 minutes

Let's find the number of periods elapsed (x), let us see:

$T = x*P$

$80 = x*20$

$80 = 20\:x$

$20\:x = 80$

$x = \dfrac{80}{20}$

$\boxed{x = 4}$

Now, let's find the final mass (m) of this isotope after the elapsed time, let's see:

$m = \dfrac{m_o}{2^x}$

$m = \dfrac{43}{2^{4}}$

$m = \dfrac{43}{16}$

$\boxed{\boxed{m = 2.6875\:g}}\end{array}}\qquad\checkmark$

I Hope this helps, greetings ... DexteR! =)
