Nucleus A decays into the stable nucleus B with a half-life of 22.07 s. At t=0 s there are 1,293 A nuclei and no B nuclei. At wh
1 answer:
Answer:
29.38 seconds
Explanation:
Half life, T = 22.07 s
No = 1293
Let N be the number of atoms left after time t
N = 1293 - 779 = 514
By the use of law of radioactivity
Where, λ is the decay constant
λ = 0.6931 / T = 0.6931 / 22.07 = 0.0314 decay per second
so,
take natural log on both the sides
0.9225 = 0.0314 t
t = 29.38 seconds

Answer:
A. The upward pressure gradient force is balanced by gravity.
Explanation:
A. is correct because the pressure difference is actually generated by gravity. As in the following formula for the pressure at different points:
where are the pressure at 2 points, ρ is the density of the fluid, g is the gravitational constant, and h is the height difference.
B is incorrect because friction in air is too small to make an effect.
C is incorrect because the Coriolis force is horizontal, not vertical.
D is incorrect because a difference of 500 hPa = 50000 Pa, this is half of the atmospheric pressure.
E is incorrect because temperature cannot generate force.
