At the point when the measure of the surface region with respect to volume builds, the rate of weathering increments. Weathering is the breakdown of rocks at the Earth's surface, by the activity of water, extremes of temperature, and natural action. It doesn't include the expulsion of shake material.

If the half life for strontium-90 is approximately 28 years, then what is the whole life for strontium-90?
sveta [45]
Set this up as

10 = 40 (1/2)t/28

and solve for t in years.

10/40 = (1/2)t/28

log(0.25) = (t/28) log(0.5)

t = 28 log(0.25) / log(0.5) years = 56 years

Test the answer:

56 years = 2(28 years) = 2 half-lives, so the remaining amount should be 1/2 of 1/2 of the initial amount, i.e. 1/4 of the initial amount, and 10 mg = 1/4 of 40 mg.

I don't think there is a big different at all but what I know is that Norway is colder and has more rain.

Another different is because Spain is closer to the equator but Norway is closer to the arctic.
