Answer:

According to Newton's second law of motion, acceleration is directly proportional to force. As the force increases (when mass is constant), the acceleration increases. This can be shown in the following formula.

$f = ma$

$a = \frac{f}{m}$

f = force

m = mass

a = acceleration

Answer:

The force is equal to the change in momentum per change in time. For a constant mass, force equals mass times acceleration

A freshly prepared sample of radioactive isotope has an activity of 10 mCi. After 4 hours, its activity is 8 mCi. Find: (a) the

Maurinko [17]

Answer:

(a). The decay constant is $1.55\times10^{-5}\ s^{-1}$

The half life is 11.3 hr.

(b). The value of N₀ is $2.38\times10^{11}\ nuclei$

(c). The sample's activity is 1.87 mCi.

Explanation:

Given that,

Activity $R_{0}=10\ mCi$

Time $t_{1}=4\ hours$

Activity R= 8 mCi

(a). We need to calculate the decay constant

Using formula of activity

$R=R_{0}e^{-\lambda t}$

$\lambda=\dfrac{1}{t}ln(\dfrac{R_{0}}{R})$

Put the value into the formula

$\lambda=\dfrac{1}{4\times3600}ln(\dfrac{10}{8})$

$\lambda=0.0000154\ s^{-1}$

$\lambda=1.55\times10^{-5}\ s^{-1}$

We need to calculate the half life

Using formula of half life

$T_{\dfrac{1}{2}}=\dfrac{ln(2)}{\lambda}$

Put the value into the formula

$T_{\dfrac{1}{2}}=\dfrac{ln(2)}{1.55\times10^{-5}}$

$T_{\dfrac{1}{2}}=44.719\times10^{3}\ s$

$T_{\dfrac{1}{2}}=11.3\ hr$

(b). We need to calculate the value of N₀

Using formula of $N_{0}$

$N_{0}=\dfrac{3.70\times10^{6}}{\lambda}$

Put the value into the formula

$N_{0}=\dfrac{3.70\times10^{6}}{1.55\times10^{-5}}$

$N_{0}=2.38\times10^{11}\ nuclei$

(c). We need to calculate the sample's activity

Using formula of activity

$R=R_{0}e^{-\lambda\times t}$

Put the value intyo the formula

$R=10e^{-(1.55\times10^{-5}\times30\times3600)}$

$R=1.87\ mCi$

Hence, (a). The decay constant is $1.55\times10^{-5}\ s^{-1}$

The half life is 11.3 hr.

(b). The value of N₀ is $2.38\times10^{11}\ nuclei$

(c). The sample's activity is 1.87 mCi.

A police car chases a speeder along a straight road towards a cliff both vehicles move at 160km/h the siren on the police car pr

natta225 [31]

Answer:

f ’= 97.0 Hz

Explanation:

This is an exercise of the doppler effect use the frequency change due to the relative movement of the fort and the observer

in this case the source is the police cases that go to vs = 160 km / h

and the observer is vo = 120 km / h

the relationship of the doppler effect is

f ’= f₀ (v + v₀ / v- $v_{s}$ )

let's reduce the magnitude to the SI system

v_{s} = 160 km / h (1000 m / 1km) (1h / 3600s) = 44.44 m / s

v₀ = 120 km / h (1000m / 1km) (1h / 3600s) = 33.33 m / s

we substitute in the equation of the Doppler effect

f ‘= 100 (330+ 33.33 / 330-44.44)

f ’= 97.0 Hz

What ia difference between screw and inclined plane

Juliette [100K]

Answer:

An inclined plane makes work easier by breaking an upward or downward movement into smaller increments. Examples of inclined planes include slides, ramps, and hills. A screw is like an inclined plane wrapped around a cylinder. A screw turns a small rotational force into a larger forward driving force.

What is Newton's 3rd Law of Motion? *

Alexandra [31]

Answer:

For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. The statement means that in every interaction, there is a pair of forces acting on the two interacting objects.

Explanation:

Every force sent into an object will sent a force in return.
