Answer: 3.125g

Explanation: This is a type of radioactive decay and all the radioactive process follow first order kinetics.

Half life is the time required to decompose half of the reactants. thus after every half life the reactant will decompose to half of its present value.

Now, to calculate the number of half lives, we use the formula:

a=\frac{a_o}{2^n}

where,

a = amount of reactant left after n-half lives = ?

a_o =Let Initial amount of the reactant = 100 g

n = number of half lives

a=\frac{100}{2^5}

a=3.125g

After five half-lives, there will be

           (1/2) · (1/2) · (1/2) · (1/2) · (1/2)  =  1/32  =  3.125%

of the original material remaining.

The base of a right prism is a rhombus with diagonals of 6 and 8. If the altitude of the prism is 12, what is the total surface
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

total surface area is 432

Explanation:

Given data

base  = 6

diagonals = 8

altitude = 12

to find out

total surface area

solution

we know total surface area of prism is

total surface area = lateral surface area + 2base area  ..............1

so

first we calculate base perimeter i.e = 2 length + 2 width

so perimeter = 2(8) + 2(6) = 25

and area  = length * width = 8*6 = 48

so lateral surface area is perimeter * height i.e

lateral surface area = 28* 12

lateral surface area = 336

put this value in equation 1 we get

total surface area = lateral surface area + 2base area

total surface area = 336 + 2(48)

total surface area is 432

You throw a small rock straight up from the edge of a highway bridge that crosses a river. the rock passes you on its way down,
maw [93]
V^2=u^2 +2aS
U is found first by considering that first 8 secs and using v=u+at. {different v and u though}

V=-u+gt.
Magnitude of u = magnitude of v if there is no resistance ( because the conservation of energy says the k. E. must be the same when it passes you as when it left your hand).... up is negative here, down is positive.
V+v=gt
2v= g x 8
V=4xg.= the initial velocity for the next calculation
V^2=(4g)^2+(2xgx21)

So v can be calculated.
