The PWC must give way. The boat that is being overtaken needs to just keep going the same way keeping the same speed, while the PWC gives way and increases the speed in order to overtake the other vessel. Very similar to how driving a normal vehicle works when driving on ground.

Answer and Explanation:

The estimation of the mass of the objects is as follows

Given that

The mass of an apple is about 100 g

Just like that, we do some estimation of different objects

A dime is around 1 g

A smartphone is about 100 g

An adult male is approx 100 kg

A college physics textbook is around 1 kg

A ripe banana is around 100 g

A sample contains 20 kg of radioactive material. The decay constant of the material is 0.179 per second. If the amount of time t
Nataly [62]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

N0 = 20kg (original substance)

decay constant λ = 0.179/sec

time t = 300s

We are to find N(t)

Using the formula;

n(t) = N0e^-λt

Substitute the given values

N(t) = 20e^-(0.179)(300)

N(t) = 20e^(-53.7)

N(t) = 20(4.7885)

N(t) =143.055

To know how much of the original material that is active, we will find N(t)/N0 = 143.055/20 = 7.152

About 7 times the original material is still radioactive
