How many half lives have elapsed?
actually the formula is like this
A=P(1/2)^(t/h)
P=iniital amount
t=time
h=half life
A=final amount
so

hmm, percent
so P=1 then
A=1(1/2)^(144.6/24.1)
A=1(1/2)^6
A=1/64
A=0.05625
so 5.625% is left

Explain how rain gauge measures the amount of rainfall​
andre [41]

A rain gauge is really just a cylinder that catches rain. If an inch collects in the cylinder, it means an inch of rain has fallen. It's that simple. Most standard rain gauges have a wide funnel leading into the cylinder and are calibrated so that one-tenth of an inch of rain measures one inch when it collects inside.

Determine the kinetic energy of an 833.0 kg roller coaster car moving at a speed of 20.0 m/s
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

166,600J

Explanation:

Kinetic energy (K.E), which is the energy due to motion of a body, can be calculated by using the formula;

K.E = 1/2 × m × v²

Where;

K.E = kinetic energy (joules)

m = mass of body (kg)

v = speed or velocity (m/s)

According to this question, the mass of the roller coaster is 833.0 kg while its velocity/speed is 20.0m/s.

K.E = 1/2 × 833 × 20²

K.E = 1/2 × 833 × 400

K.E = 1/2 × 333200

K.E = 166,600

Therefore, the kinetic energy of the roller coaster car is 166,600J.

Wood is mainly cellulose, a polymer produced by plants. One use of wood is as a fuel in campfires, fireplaces, and wood furnaces
Alja [10]

Answer:

C6 H10 O5+ 6O2-----> 6CO2+5H2O+heat

Explanation:

There are 6 carbon atoms in reactants to balance you put coefficient 6.

This makes the oxygen in CO2 12 so to balance put 6 in oxygen in reactants.

There are 10 hydrogen atoms in reactants to balance you put 5 in front of H2O in products.

If u recheck: 6 C atoms in reactants, 6 C atoms in products.

10 H atoms in reactants, 10 H atoms in products.

17 O atoms in reactants, 17 O atoms in products.
