The composite material is composed of carbon fiber and epoxy resins. Now, density is an intensive unit. So, to approach this problem, let's assume there is 1 gram of composite material. Thus, mass carbon + mass epoxy = 1 g.
Volume of composite material = 1 g / 1.615 g/cm³ = 0.619 cm³
Volume of carbon fibers = x g / 1.74 g/cm³
Volume of epoxy resin = (1 - x) g / 1.21 g/cm³
a.) V of composite = V of carbon fibers + V of epoxy resin
0.619 = x/1.74 + (1-x)/1.21
Solve for x,
x = 0.824 g carbon fibers
1-x = 0.176 g epoxy resins
Vol % of carbon fibers = [(0.824/1.74) ÷ 0.619]*100 =<em> 76.5%</em>
b.) Weight % of epoxy = 0.176 g epoxy/1 g composite * 100 = <em>17.6%</em>
Weight % of carbon fibers = 0.824 g carbon/1 g composite * 100 = <em>82.4%</em>
D is the answer your looking for
I really hope this helps I’ve been there too and I’m just doing this so I get the 20 words and I have the picture
Answer:
False
Explanation:
Half life is the time period at which the concentration of the radioactive substance in decay reduced to half.
<u>Thus, if the hydrogen-3 has gone 2 half lives, it means that it has first reduced to its half and then again the half of what it was, i.e. 1/4</u>
Thus, after two successive half-lives, the concentration must be 1/4 of the initial concentration and hence, the statement is false.
