When time is measured in​ days, the decay constant for a particular radioactive isotope is 0.16. Determine the time required for
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

The time take is  t = 1.3964 \ days

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The decay constant is  \lambda  = 0.16

     The percentage fall is  c =  0.80

The equation for radioactive decay is mathematically represented as

               N(t) =  N_o  * e^{- \lambda t  }

Where is N(t) is the new amount of the new the isotope while N_o is the original

At initial  N_o =  100%  = 1

At N(t ) =  80%  = 0.80  

       0.80 =  1 * e^{- 0.16 t }

=>     -0.223 =  -0.16 t

=>     t = 1.3964 \ days

Please help me with the following question:
pishuonlain [190]

Answer: a. 667N

b. 665N

c. 54.5N

Explanation:

a) on the surface of the earth

W = mg

W = 68 × 9.81

= 667N

b) at the top of Everest (8848 m above sea level).

W =mg × R²/(R + H)²

W = 667 × [6378²/(6378 + 8.848)²

W = 665N

c) has 2 1/2 times the radius of the earth

W = mg × R²/(R + H)²

W = 667 × R²/(R + 2.5R)²

W = 54.5N

A toy car is moving across a table with a velocity of 7.0 m/s and drives off the end. The table is 1.8 m tall. How long will the
KatRina [158]

Answer:

Option D - 0.2 s

Explanation:

We are given;

Initial velocity; u = 7 m/s

Height of table; h = 1.8m

Now,since we want to find the time the car spent in the air, we will simply use one of Newton's equation of motion.

Thus;

h = ut + ½gt²

Plugging in the relevant values, we have;

1.8 = 7t + ½(9.8)t²

4.9t² + 7t - 1.8 = 0

Using quadratic formula to find the roots of the equation gives us;

t = -1.65 or 0.22

We can't have negative t value, thus we will pick the positive one.

So, t = 0.22 s

This is approximately 0.2 s
