Hey there!

A half-life means after a certain amount of time, half of that substance will be gone/changed after that time.

How many half-lives are in 16 days?

Multiply 16 by 24 (to get the total hours) and divide that by 2.5.

That is 153.6 half-lives.

35(0.5)^(153.6) represents the equation for this.

Simplify this and get 8.88 x 10^(-45).

There will be 2.02 x 10^(-45)g of germanium-66 sample remaining after 16 days.

Hope this helps!

A typical person has an average heart rate of 75.0 beats/min. Calculate the following a)How many beats does she have in 7.0 year
hram777 [196]

Let us first convert years to minute.

7 years * (365 days / year) * (24 hours / day) * (60 minutes / hour) = 3,679,200 minutes

 

a. beats = 75.0 beats/min * 3,679,200 minutes

beats = 275,940,000 beats

Since the original given is 7.0 years (2 significant figures), therefore:

beats = 270,000,000 beats

 

b beats = 75.0 beats/min * 3,679,200 minutes

beats = 275,940,000 beats

Since the original given is 7.000 years (4 significant figures), therefore:

<span>beats = 275,900,000 beats</span>

Define not matter and give examples​
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

Everything that has mass and takes up space is matter. Every day, you encounter phenomena that either don't have mass or don't take up space. They are non-matter. Basically, any type of energy or any abstract concept is an example of something that is not matter.

An apple.

A person.

A table.

Air.

Water.

A computer.

Paper.

Iron.
