Answer:
1/8 = (1/2)^3
This implies the sample has decayed for 3 half lives
3 * 5730 yrs = 17,200 years
Answer:
False
Explanation:
When the location of the poles changes in the z-plane, the natural or resonant frequency (ω₀) changes which in turn changes the damped frequency (ωd) of the system.
As the poles of a 2nd-order discrete-time system moves away from the origin then natural frequency (ω₀) increases, which in turn increases damped oscillation frequency (ωd) of the system.
ωd = ω₀√(1 - ζ)
Where ζ is called damping ratio.
For small value of ζ
ωd ≈ ω₀
The percentage of energy available to each organism is always 10 percent .
