From that list of choices, infrared radiation is the only one with wavelengths
longer than the wavelengths of visible light.  Those of X-rays, and gamma rays
are shorter than visible wavelengths.  Cosmic rays are high energy subatomic
particles, not electromagnetic waves.

A scientist begins with 100 milligrams of a radioactive substance that decays exponentially. After 33 hours, 50 mg of the substa
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

m\approx34.99

Explanation:

Radioactive decay behaves according to the law of exponential decay:

m(t)=m_0*e^{-rt}

Where:

r=Decay\hspace{3}rate

t=Time(In\hspace{3}days)

m_0=Initial\hspace{3}amount\hspace{3}of\hspace{3}substance

m(t)=Amount\hspace{3}of\hspace{3}substance\hspace{3}at\hspace{3}time\hspace{3}t

So we need to find the decay rate r. Let's find it using the equation and the data provide, but first, we need to convert the hours in days:

50h*\frac{1day}{24h}=\frac{25}{12}day\\  33h*\frac{1day}{24h} =\frac{11}{8}day

Now for t=\frac{11}{8},m=50 then:

m(\frac{11}{8} )=100*e^{-r(\frac{11}{8}) } =50

Divide both sides by 100:

e^{-r(\frac{11}{8}) } =\frac{1}{2}

Take the natural logarithm of both sides:

-\frac{11}{8}x=ln(\frac{1}{2} )

Multiply both sides by -8/11:

x=\frac{-8ln(\frac{1}{2} )}{11} \approx0.504107

Now we have found the rate decay r, let's find how many milligrams will remain after 59 hours (25/12 day):

m(\frac{25}{12} )=100*e^{-0.504107*\frac{25}{12}) } =100*e^{-1.050222917}=34.98597508\approx35.99

A box that is resting on an inclined plane has what forces acting on it
miskamm [114]

A box residing on an inclined plane has following forces:

In the X- direction

Mg sin (theta) = horizontal  component of weight of the box

f = Frictional force = uN , u = frictional factor, N= mg

In the Y- direction

upward force = Normal reaction of the box = mg

downward force = mg cos(theta) = vertical component of weight of the box
