12 years IS a half-life. Half of the nuclei decay in 12 years.  So there are half of the original 10^16 left. That's 0.5E16 or 5E15.

11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

X(t) = 13/13 cos(12t+α)

C =13/13

π/6 s

Explanation:

(A) A body with mass 200 g is attached to the end of a spring that is stretched 20 cm by a force of 9 N. At time t = 0 the body is pulled 1 m in to the right, stretching the spring, 3 set in motion with an initial velocity of 5 m/s to the left.  

(a) Find X(t) in the form c • cos(w_o*t— α)  

(b) Find the amplitude 3 Period of motion of the body 1  

mass: m = 200g =  0.200 kg  

displacement: ΔX = 20 cm =  0.20 m

Spring Constant: K =  9/0.20 = 45 N/m

IV:   X(0) = 1m V(0) = -5 m/s

Simple Harmonic Motion: c•cos(cosw_t— α) = X(t)  

Circular Frequency: w_o = √k/m= √36/(0.20) = 13 rad/s

X(0) = 1m =c_1

X'(0) = V(0) = c_2*w_o/w_o

        = -5/12 =   c_2

"radians Technically Unitless"  

Amplitude: c = √ci^2 + c^2 ==> √1^2 + (-5/12)^2 = 1 m =13/13 = c

X(t) = 13/13 cos(12t+α)

since, C>0 : damped forced vibration c_1>0, c_2>0

phase angle 2π+tan^-1(c_2/c_1)

                        =2π+tan^-1(-5/12/1)= 5.884

period: T =2π/w_o

                =π/6 s

When talking about Acceleration ,what is significant about the about the sign(+ or -)?​
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

Acceleration at its most basic is the act of increasing your running speed. From a standing start (or blocks), you explode into action. If you’re already running, you pick up the pace. Acceleration continues until you can no longer increase your speed, at which point you achieve maximum velocity (top-end speed). Acceleration seems simple enough. The plus means your increasing speed, the k=minus means your decreasing in speed.

An ice cube of volume 15 cm^3 and density 917 kg/m^3 is placed in ethyl alcohol of density 811 kg/m^3. What is the buoyant force
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

the buoyant force acting on the  ice cube is 0.119 N

Explanation:

given,

volume of ice cube = 15 cm³ = 15 × 10⁻⁶ m³

density of ice cube = 917 kg/m³

density of ethyl alcohol = 811 kg/m³

buoyant force = ?

The density of ice is more than ethyl alcohol hence it will sink.

buoyant  force acting on the ice cube = ρ V g

                                                                = 811 × 15 × 10⁻⁶ × 9.81

                                                                =0.119 N

so, the buoyant force acting on the  ice cube is 0.119 N

The amount of work done by two boys who apply 200 N of force in an
Aleksandr [31]

The amount of work done by two boys who apply 200 N of force in an unsuccessful attempt to move a stalled car is 0.

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation: </u>

Work done is the measure of work done by someone to push an object from its present position. We can also define work done as the amount of forces needed to move an object from its present position to another position. So the amount of work done is directly proportionate to the product of forces acting on the object and the displacement of the object.  

           \text { Work done }=\text { Force } \times \text { displacement }

So in this present case, as the two boys have done an unsuccessful attempts to push a stalled car so that means the displacement of the car is zero as there is no change in the position of the car. But they have applied a force of 200 N each. So the amount of work done will be

           \text { Work done }=200 \mathrm{N} \times 0=0

Thus, the amount of work done by two boys will be zero due to their unsuccessful attempt to move a stalled car.

A tank, shaped like a cone has height 12 meter and base radius 1 meter. It is placed so that the circular part is upward. It is
Temka [501]

Answer:

376966.991 Joules

Explanation:

Given that :

the height = 12  m

Let assume the tank have a thickness  = dh

The radius of the tank by using the concept of similar triangle is :

\dfrac{1}{r} = \dfrac{12}{h}

r = \dfrac{h}{12}

The area of the tank = \mathbf{\pi r^2}

The area of the tank = \mathbf{\pi( \dfrac{h}{12})^2}

The area of the tank = \mathbf{ \dfrac{\pi}{144}h^2}

The volume of the tank is  = area × thickness

= \mathbf{ \dfrac{\pi}{144}h^2 \  dh}

Weight of the element = \rho_ g * volume

where;

\rho_g = density of water ; which is given as 10000 N/m³

So;

Weight of the element = \mathbf{ 10000 *\dfrac{\pi}{144}h^2 \  dh}

Weight of the element = \mathbf{69.44 \ \pi  \ h^2 \  dh}

However; the work required to pump this water = weight × height  rise

where the height rise = 12 - h

the work required to pump this water  = \mathbf{69.44 \ \pi  \ h^2 \  dh}(12 - h)

the work required to pump this water  = \mathbf{69.44 \pi (12h^2-h^3)dh}

We can determine the total workdone by integrating the work required to pump this water

SO;

Workdone = \mathbf{\int\limits^{12}_0 {69.44 \pi(12h^2-h^3)} dh}

= \mathbf{ 69.44 \pi \int\limits^{12}_0 {(12h^2-h^3)} dh}

=  \mathbf{ 69.44 \pi[ \frac{12h^3}{3}-  \frac{h^4}{4}]^{12}}_0} }

= \mathbf{69.44 \pi [ \frac{12^4}{3}-\frac{12^4}{4}]}

= \mathbf{69.44 \pi*12^4 [ \frac{4-3}{12}]}

= \mathbf{69.44 \pi*12^4 *\frac{1}{12}}

= 376966.991 Joules
