What traction of the radioisotoperemains in the body after one day?

1 answer:

5 0

The fraction of radioisotope left after 1 day is $(\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{1}{\tau}}$ , with the half-life expressed in days

Explanation:

The question is incomplete: however, we can still answer as follows.

The mass of a radioactive sample after a time t is given by the equation:

$m(t)=m_0 (\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{t}{\tau}}$

where:

$m_0$ is the mass of the radioactive sample at t = 0

$\tau$ is the half-life of the sample

This means that the mass of the sample halves after one half-life.

We can rewrite the equation as

$\frac{m(t)}{m_0}=(\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{t}{\tau}}$

And the term on the left represents the fraction of the radioisotope left after a certain time t.

Therefore, after t = 1 days, the fraction of radioisotope left in the body is

$\frac{m(1)}{m_0}=(\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{1}{\tau}}$

where the half-life $\tau$ must be expressed in days in order to match the units.

A toy car is given a quick push so that it rolls up an inclined ramp. After it is released, it rolls up, reaches its highest poi

kicyunya [14]

Answer: Option (E)

Explanation:

There are only two forces acting on the car: The force of gravity, which point down, and the normal force generated by the interaction of the car and the ramp, which points perpendicular to the ramp.

$N=mgcos(\alpha )$ ,

$m$ :mass of the car ; $\alpha$ :angle of the ramp.

$g$ : gravity's acceleration.

$N$ is constante since all parameters are constants.

So, since the force of gravity is also constant, the net force acting on the car is constant. Since velocity decreases over time and the car stars moving down, the force is pointing down the ramp.

Answer:

C. the area of the rectangle plus the area of the triangle under the line

Explanation:

Based on the information provided, the velocity vs. time graph is a line with a positive slope and a y-intercept of (0, 3). The displacement is the area under this line. This area can be divided into a triangle and a rectangle. So of the options available, C is the correct one.

Suppose a car is traveling at +25.0 m/s, and the driver sees a traffic light turn red. After 0.340 s has elapsed (the reaction t

scoundrel [369]

First, we will get the distance traveled before the driver applied the brakes.
distance = velocity * time
distance = 25*0.34 = 8.5 m

Now, we will calculated the distance that the car traveled after the driver applied the brakes. To do this, we will use the equation of motion:
<span>vf^2 = vi^2 + 2*a*d where:
</span>vf = zero, vi = 25 m/s and a = -7 m/s^2
Note: The negative sign is only to show deceleration
d = <span> 1/2*(625) /(7) = 44.6428 m

The total stopping distance =</span> 8.5 + 44.6428 = 53.1428 m

the sole of a tennis shoe has a surface area of 0.0290 m^2. if it is worn by a 65.0 kg person, what pressure does the shoe exert

AURORKA [14]

Answer: 21965.517 Pa

Explanation:

Pressure $P$ is the force $F$ exerted by a gas, a liquid or a solid on a surface (or area) $A$ , its unit is Pascal $Pa$ which is equal to $N/m^{2}$ and its formula is:
