When someone fails to wear a seat belt the passenger becoming a projectile the force a person will be subjected to for a passenger weighting 100 pounds, and the car is traveling at 60 mph would be the same as 6000 pounds. thats like hitting a brick wall. so is other words put ur seat belt on. 

hope this helped (:

Assume a solar cell would produce a current of 500mA and 3 V. What is the power of this solar cell?
defon

Answer:

the power of the solar cell is 1.5 watts

Explanation:

Recall that power is defined as the product of the voltage (V) times the running current (I): Power = V * I.

The only thing we have to take care of before actually performing the operation, is to convert milliamps into Amps, so our answer comes directly in the appropriate units (Watts). 500 mAmps can be written as 0.5 Amps, then, the product becomes:

Power = V * I = 3 V * 0.5 Amps = 1.5 watts

A practical rule is that a radioactive nuclide is essentially gone after 10 half-lives. What percentage of the original radioact
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

  • 0.09 % of the original radioactive nucllde its left after 10 half-lives
  • It will take 241,100 years for 10 half-lives of plutonium-239 to pass.

Explanation:

The equation for radioactive decay its:

N ( t) \ = \ N_0 \ e^{ \ -  \frac{t}{\tau}},

where N(t) its quantity of material at time t, N_0 its the initial quantity of material and \tau its the mean lifetime of the radioactive element.

The half-life t_{\frac{1}{2}} its the time at which the quantity of material its the half of the initial value, so, we can find:

N (t_{\frac{1}{2} }) \ = \ N_0 \ e^{ \ -  \frac{t_{\frac{1}{2}}}{\tau}} \ = \frac{N_0}{2}

so:

\ N_0 \ e^{ \ -  \frac{t_{\frac{1}{2}}}{\tau}} \ = \frac{N_0}{2}

e^{ \ -  \frac{t_{\frac{1}{2}}}{\tau}} \ = \frac{1}{2}

-  \frac{t_{\frac{1}{2}}}{\tau}} \ = - \ ln( 2 )

t_{\frac{1}{2}}\ = \tau ln( 2 )

So, after 10 half-lives, we got:

N ( 10 \  t_{\frac{1}{2}}) \ = \ N_0 \ e^{ \ -  \frac{10 \  t_{\frac{1}{2}}}{\tau}}

N ( 10 \  t_{\frac{1}{2}}) \ = \ N_0 \ e^{ \ -  \frac{10 \  \tau \ ln( 2 ) }{\tau}}

N ( 10 \  t_{\frac{1}{2}}) \ = \ N_0 \ e^{ \ -  10 \  \ ln( 2 ) }

N ( 10 \  t_{\frac{1}{2}}) \ = \ N_0 \ * \ 9.76 * 10^{-4}

So, we got that a 0.09 % of the original radioactive nucllde its left.

Putonioum-239 has a half-life of 24,110 years. So, 10 half-life will take to pass

10 \ * \ 24,110 \ years \ = \ 241,100 \ years

It will take 241,100 years for 10 half-lives of plutonium-239 to pass.

At a constant pressure, 10 L of a gas at 546 K is cooled to 273 K
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

5 L

Explanation:

Ideal gas law:

PV = nRT

If P, n, and R are constant, then:

n₁R/P₁ = n₂R/P₂

Using ideal gas law, we can rewrite this as:

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

This is known as Charles' law.

Plugging in values:

10 L / 546 K = V / 273 K

V = 5 L
