The half-life of this radioactive isotope is 9 months for it decreases to one-fourth its original amount in 18 months. Half-life means a certain length of time after which half of the amount of radioactive element has decayed.
Therefore, the half-life of this particular isotope is 18 months. After 18 months the isotope was at one-half, then another 18 months, the isotope was at one-fourth, which is 9 months where one-fourth is one-half of one half.

A proton is located at <3 x 10^-10> m. What is r, the vector from the origin to the location of the proton
Eduardwww [97]

Complete Question

A proton is located at <3 x 10^{-10}, -5*10^{-10}  , -5*10^{-10}> m. What is r, the vector from the origin to the location of the proton

Answer:

The  vector position is   \=r=

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The  position of the proton is m

Generally the vector location of the proton is mathematically represented as

       \= r =

So substituting values

     \=r=

A car is traveling at 70 km/h. It then uniformly decelerates to a complete stop in 12 s. Find its acceleration ( in m/s2 ).
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

Acceleration will be -1.620m/sec^2

Explanation:

We have given initial speed of the car is 70 km/hr

We know that 1 km = 1000 m

And 1 hour = 3600 sec

So 70km/hr=70\times \frac{1000m}{3600sec}=19.444m/sec

It is given that car stops in 12 sec

So final speed of the car v = 0 m/sec

Time t = 12 sec

From first equation of motion v = u+at

So 0=19.444+a\times 12

a=\frac{-19.444}{12}=-1.620m/sec^2 ( negative sign indicates that speed of the car will constantly decrease )
