The decay of a radioactive isotope can be theoretically modeled with the following equation, where C0 is the initial amount of t

he element at time zero and k is the decay rate of the isotope. Create a proper plot of the decay of isotope A [k = 1.48 hours]. Allow time to vary on the abscissa from 0 to 5 hours with an initial concentration of 10 grams of isotope A.

That problem could answered easyly in Matlab,

We know that c=c_0e^{\frac{t}{k}}

So whit this program we can make it,

<em />

<em>figure('color','white')</em>

<em>initial=10;</em>

<em>decay_rate=1.48</em>

<em>time=[0:0:1:5];</em>

<em>concen=initial*exp(-time/decay_rate);</em>

<em>plot(time,concen)</em>

<em>grid</em>

<em>title('Decay of the Isotope A')</em>

<em>xlabel('Time (hours'))</em>

<em>ylabel('concentration in grams')</em>

<em />

<em />

Explain what a stress-concentration is and how it can be accounted for in the design and analysis of a structural component. Be
Mama L [17]

Answer:

Stress-concentration

        In the machine component the stress become concentrate at the point a particular point and due to this crack formation takes places and after some time some the machine component become fails.High stress concentration means high stress at that point.

It is very important in the design point of view because we have to find out where stress concentration is high and needs to take proper factor of safety to avoid the failure of the machine component.Generally at sharp corner,sudden change and complex shapes stress concentration is high.

An office worker claims that a cup of cold coffee on his table warmed up to 80°C by picking up energy from the surrounding air,
kherson [118]

Answer:

The claim is false and violate the zeroth law of thermodynamics.

Explanation:

Zeroth law of thermodynamics refers to thermal equilibrium among  elements. It states that  elements which different temperatures will reach the same temperature at the endgame if they are close enough to interact each other. This temperaure is called <em>equilibrium temperature and it is always a intermediate value between the element with highest temperature and the element with the lowest one. So there is no way </em> a cup of cold coffee on a table can warm up to 80°C picking up energy from the surrounding air at 25°C because the cup can only reach a temperature closer to the surrounding air temperature which will be the equilimbrium temperature for that case.
