Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

Big Bang happened about 13.7 billion years ago. It is most accepted theory of universe creation. Several experiments have confirmed the happening of big bang back then, in promising way. One of this experiment is the red shift experiment. A scientist named Edwin Hubble tried to study the spectrum of stars. He made a shocking revelation that universe is rushing outwards in all directions. Light travelling away registers on the red side. He observed that the distance stars showed red shift in accelerated manner. If the universe is accelerating that means, at one point it would have been smaller, in fact it was as small as an atom, some how it exploded and lead to formation of the expanding universe.

A sample of Bismuth-212 has a mass of 2.64 grams (g) after 121 seconds (s). What was the initial mass of the sample if Bismuth-2

The mass of a radioactive element at time t is given by
$m(t) = m_0 ( \frac{1}{2} )^{ \frac{t}{t_{1/2}} }$
where $m_0$ is the mass at time zero, while $t_{1/2}$ is the half-life of the element.

In our problem, $m(t)=2.64 g$ , t=121.0 s and $t_{1/2}=60.5 s$ , so we can find the initial mass $m_0$ :
$m_0= \frac{m(t)}{ (\frac{1}{2})^{t/t_{1/2}} } = \frac{2.64 g}{( \frac{1}{2} )^{121/60.5}} =4 \cdot 2.64 g=10.56 g$

Natasha2012 [34]

There are no choices on the list you provided that make such a statement,
and it's difficult to understand what is meant by "the following".

That statement is one way to describe the approach to 'forces of gravity'
taken by the theory of Relativity.

Can a goalkeeper at his goal kick a soccer ball into the opponent’s goal without the ball touching the ground? The distance will

zmey [24]

The goalkeeper at his goal cannot kick a soccer ball into the opponent’s goal without the ball touching the ground

Explanation:

Consider the vertical motion of ball,

We have equation of motion v = u + at

Initial velocity, u = u sin θ

Final velocity, v = 0 m/s

Acceleration = -g

Substituting

v = u + at

0 = u sin θ - g t

$t=\frac{usin\theta }{g}$

This is the time of flight.

Consider the horizontal motion of ball,

Initial velocity, u = u cos θ

Acceleration, a =0 m/s²

Time, $t=\frac{usin\theta }{g}$

Substituting

s = ut + 0.5 at²

$s=ucos\theta \times \frac{usin\theta }{g}+0.5\times 0\times (\frac{usin\theta }{g})^2\\\\s=\frac{u^2sin\theta cos\theta}{g}\\\\s=\frac{u^2sin2\theta}{2g}$

This is the range.

In this problem

u = 30 m/s

g = 9.81 m/s²

θ = 45° - For maximum range

Substituting

$s=\frac{30^2\times sin(2\times 45)}{2\times 9.81}=45.87m$

Maximum horizontal distance traveled by ball without touching ground is 45.87 m, which is less than 95 m.

So the goalkeeper at his goal cannot kick a soccer ball into the opponent’s goal without the ball touching the ground
