The radius of the smaller circle is 8 feet. The distance from the rim of the inner circle to the rim of the outer circle is 3 fe
et. A circular garden with a radius of 8 feet is surrounded by a circular path with a width of 3 feet. What is the approximate area of the path alone?
1 answer:
Answer:
178.98 sq. feet
Explanation:
The path and the garden has been shown in the figure below. The green area is the garden and the area in brown is the path.
It has been given that,
Radius of garden = 8 feet
So, the area of garden = 3.14 × 8 × 8 = 200.96 sq. feet
The total radius of the land including garden and path = 8 + 3 = 11 feet
So, the total are of land including garden and path = 3.14 × 11 × 11 = 379.94 sq. feet
So, the area of path = Total area of the land - area of garden
Area of path = 379.94 - 200.96 = 178.98 sq. feet

<h3>Further explanation </h3>The atomic nucleus can experience decay into 2 particles or more due to the instability of its atomic nucleus.
Usually, radioactive elements have an unstable atomic nucleus.
General formulas used in decay:
T = duration of decay
t 1/2 = half-life
N₀ = the number of initial radioactive atoms
Nt = the number of radioactive atoms left after decaying during T time
half-life = t 1/2=2.6 years
T=15.6 years
