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.

What layer of the atmosphere contains all of the weather and thus the most water vapor?

Veronika [31]

The troposphere is the lowermost layer of the Earth's atmosphere. Most of the weather phenomena, systems, convection, turbulence and clouds occur in this layer, although some may extend into the lower portion of the stratosphere.

Precision measurements of the acceleration due to gravity show that the acceleration is slightly different in different location

DochEvi [55]

Gravity largely depends on the comparison of two objects; it's why you have the equation F= (GMm)/r^2. On Earth, you have different altitudes that, with the formula, will give different results for gravity because the radius is different everywhere. This difference on calculations, however, are seen to be miniscule. We know gravity as 9.81 m/s^2 but it might be different by thousandths or hundreds of thousandths of a decimal.

Explanation:QA: “What is ordinary glass made of ?”

Glass is mostly silica, or silicon dioxide, present as quartz in many types of sand. Pure silica forms a highly transparent glass, but has a very high melting or softening temperature, around 1700°C. Even at such high temperatures it is highly viscous and difficult to work. Its use is largely confined to applications requiring high transparency to ultra-violet and infra-red radiation, stability at elevated temperatures or low thermal expansion coefficient.

“Ordinary glass” windows and drinking vessels are typically made from soda-lime glass, containing silica with around 25% sodium, calcium and other oxides, which together reduce the softening temperature to roughly 500–600°C

How will unbalanced forces affect the speed and direction of an object

azamat

Answer:

Explanation:

Unbalanced forces will result in the presence of acceleration. The formula

F net = ma

says that if there is a net force present and the object in question has a mass, then an acceleration is present. Now acceleration is constant in this situation because nowhere does it say the acceleration is changing. If acceleration is constant then the velocity is increasing at a steady pace (think linear function!).

The direction of the object depends on the direction that the net force is in. If the net force is to the left, then that object will accelerate to the left.

Hope this helps :)
