The half-life of element X is 20 years. If there are 48 g initially a) How much is there after 80 years
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

After 80 years there will be 3 g of element X remaining

Explanation:

Given;

the half life of element X = 20 year

initial mass of element X = 48 g

a) How much is there after 80 years

0 year --------------------------> 48 g

20 years -----------------------> (48g / 2) = 24 g

40 years ------------------------> 12 g

60 years ------------------------> 6 g

80 years --------------------------> 3 g

Therefore, after 80 years there will be 3 g of element X remaining.

svetoff [14.1K]

Sally wins the race by 0.03 min

Explanation:

To find time = distance / velocity

Sally;

1 mile / 12 mph

= ¹/12 hrs * 60

= 5 min

Ramona;

³/4 mile ÷ 11 mph  +  ¹/4 mile ÷ 16 mph

= ³/44 hrs + ¹/64 hrs

= 4.09 min + 0.94 min

= 5.03 min

An arrow is launched from a bow with an initial horizontal velocity of 40
Ivan

Answer:

V = (Vx^2 + Vy^2)^1/2 = (40^2 + 62^2)^1/2

V = 73.8 m/s

tan theta = Vy / Vx = 62/40 = 1.55

theta = 57.2 deg
