After first half-life you will have 100/2=50g. After second half-life you will have 50/2=25g.

25 grams. 

A half life is the amount of time it takes for an isotope to decay half of itself. 

So after one half life, there will be half of the original amount. 

100/2=50

After another half life, there will be half of that amount. 

50/2 = 25

d) A short ton of coal holds about 2.24 x 107 J of energy and costs about $56.45 per short ton. How many Joules of energy in the
Feliz [49]

Answer:

396811.337 J

Explanation:

The cost of one short ton of coal = $56.45

The energy related to the short ton of coal = 2.24\times 10^{7}\ J

Thus, As according to the question,

$56.45 of coal have 2.24\times 10^{7}\ J of energy.

$1 of coal have \frac{2.24\times 10^{7}}{56.45}\ J of energy.

<u>The amount of energy = 396811.337 J</u>
