Answer:

160 m

Explanation:

For computing the distance first we have to determine the acceleration which is shown below:

v = u + at

where,

v = 0 = initial velocity

u = 40 = uniformly to a speed

t = 8 = time

So, the a is

= 40 ÷ 8

= 5 m/s

Now we have to use the distance formula i.e

d = ut + 1 ÷ 2 at^2

= 1 ÷2 × 5 × 8^2

= 160 m

Basically we have to applied the above formulas so that the distance could come

In 8,450 seconds, the number of radioactive nuclei decreases to 1/16 of the number present initially. What is the half-life (in

almond37 [142]

Answer:

<h2>2113 seconds</h2>

Explanation:

The general decay equation is given as $N = N_0e^{-\lambda t} \\\\$ , then;

$\dfrac{N}{N_0} = e^{-\lambda t} \\$ where;

$N/N_0$ is the fraction of the radioactive substance present = 1/16

$\lambda$ is the decay constant

t is the time taken for decay to occur = 8,450s

Before we can find the half life of the material, we need to get the decay constant first.

Substituting the given values into the formula above, we will have;

$\frac{1}{16} = e^{-\lambda(8450)} \\\\Taking\ ln\ of \both \ sides\\\\ln(\frac{1}{16} ) = ln(e^{-\lambda(8450)}) \\\\\\ln (\frac{1}{16} ) = -8450 \lambda\\\\\lambda = \frac{-2.7726}{-8450}\\ \\\lambda = 0.000328$

Half life f the material is expressed as $t_{1/2} = \frac{0.693}{\lambda}$

$t_{1/2} = \frac{0.693}{0.000328}$

$t_{1/2} = 2,112.8 secs$

Hence, the half life of the material is approximately 2113 seconds

A car traveling at 37m/s starts to decelerate steadily. It comes to a complete stop in 15 seconds. What is it’s acceleration

LuckyWell [14K]

<u>Answer</u>

The acceleration is

$a=-2.5ms^{-2}$ to the nearest tenth

<u>Explanation</u>

Since the car was travelling at $37ms^{-1}$ before it starts to decelerate, the initial velocity is

$u=37ms^{-1}$ .

The final velocity is $v=0ms^{-1}$ , because the car came to a stop.

The time taken is $t=15s$ .

Using the Newton's equation of linear motion,

$v=u +at$ , we find the acceleration by substituting the known values.

This implies that,

$0=37 +a(15)$

This gives us,

$0-37=15a$

$\Rightarrow -37=15a$

We divide both sides by 15 to get,

$a=-\frac{37}{15}ms^{-2}$

$a=-2.46667ms^{-2}$
