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

N=N_{0}e^{-\lambda t}

Where, λ is the decay constant

λ = 0.6931 / T = 0.6931 / 22.07 = 0.0314 decay per second

so,

514=1293e^{-0.0314t}

2.5155=e^{0.0314t}

take natural log on both the sides

0.9225 = 0.0314 t

t = 29.38 seconds

A water pump is a positive displacement-type pump true or false
Kay [80]

Answer: True

A water pump belong to a positive displacement pump that provides constant flow of water at fixed speed, regardless of changes in the counter pressure. The two main types of positive displacement pump are rotary pumps and reciprocating pumps.

Moreover, water pump is a reciprocating positive displacement pump that have an expanding cavity on the suction side and a decreasing cavity on the discharge side. In water pumps, the liquid flows into the pumps as the cavity on the suction side expands and then the liquid flows out of the discharge as the cavity collapses providing water in a pail.

What climate factor is responsible for the snow on my Kilimanjaro
Nimfa-mama [501]
The climate factor that is responsible for the amount of snow on Mt. Kilimanjaro is high elevation. In the concept of precipitation, as an air mass rises and cools, its capacity to hold water vapor lessens. This vapor condenses into water droplets, forming clouds. Terrain with high elevation attracts such formations, bringing with them cloudiness, rainfall, and snowfall.

What the planet after Venus
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Mercury and Venus are therefore closer to each other most of the time. But Earth is the planet closest to Venus. And that's why from here on Earth, Venus looks so big and luminous. Venus is the brightest thing in the night sky after the sun and the moon.

Find the Horizontal (x) vector for these forces.
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

See the explanation below.

Explanation:

The force is a vector therefore we can decompose the force into components x & y. as we need the horizontal component of the force, we must use the cosine function of the angle.

F_{1x}=30.8*cos(20)\\F_{1x}=28.94[N]\\F_{2x}=34.3*cos(20)\\\\F_{2x}= 32.23[N]

A supersonic jet is at an altitude of 14 kilometers flying at 1,500 kilometers per hour toward the east. At this velocity, how f
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

The jet will fly 2400 km.

Explanation:

Given the velocity of the jet flying toward the east is 1,500 kmph toward the east.

We need to find the distance covered in 1.6 hours.

In our problem we are given speed and time, we can easily determine the distance using the following formula.

Distance=Speed\times Time

Distance=1500\times 1.6=2400\ km

So, the supersonic jet will travel 2400 km in 1.6 hours toward the east from its starting point.
