A sample of a material has 200 radioactive particles in it today. Your grandfather measured 400 radioactive particles in it 60 y

ears ago. How many radioactive particles will the sample have 60 years from today?

sukhopar [10]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Amount of radioactive particles left after 60 years = 100 particles.

Explanation:

Amount of radioactive particles before 60 years = 400

Amount of radioactive particles present today = 200

That is radio active particles reduced to half. That is 60 years is half life of this radio active material.

After 60 years this 200 radio active particles will reduce to half.

Amount of radioactive particles left after 60 years = 0.5 x 200 = 100 particles.

Difference between rest and motion?
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

Rest and motion are relative terms. In simple terms, an object that changes its position is said to be in motion while the opposite action causes an object to be at rest.

If the rods with diameters and lengths listed below are made of the same material, which will undergo the largest percentage len
seraphim [82]

Answer:

The highest percentage of change corresponds to the thinnest rod, the correct answer is a

Explanation:

For this exercise we are asked to change the length of the bar by the action of a force applied along its length, in this case we focus on the expression of longitudinal elasticity

               F / A = Y ΔL/L

where F / A is the force per unit length, ΔL / L is the fraction of the change in length, and Y is Young's modulus.

In this case the bars are made of the same material by which Young's modulus is the same for all

              ΔL / L = (F / A) / Y

the area of ​​the bar is the area of ​​a circle

               A = π r² = π d² / 4

               A = π / 4 d²

we substitute

              ΔL / L = (F / Y) 4 /πd²

changing length

               ΔL = (F / Y 4 /π) L / d²

The amount between paracentesis are all constant in this exercise, let's look for the longitudinal change

a) values ​​given d and 3L

               ΔL = cte 3L / d²

               ΔL = cte L /d²  3

To find the percentage, we must divide the change in magnitude by its value and multiply by 100.

                ΔL/L % = [(F /Y  4/π 1/d²) 3L ] / 3L 100

                ΔL/L  % = cte 100%

 

b) 3d and L value, we repeat the same process as in part a

               ΔL = cte L / 9d²

               ΔL = cte L / d² 1/9

               ΔL / L% = cte 100/9

               ΔL / L% = cte 11%

   

c) 2d and 2L value

               ΔL = (cte L / d ½ )/ 2L

               ΔL/L% = cte 100/4

               ΔL/L% = cte 25%

d) value 4d and L

               ΔL = cte L / d² 1/16

                ΔL/L % = cte 100/16

                ΔL/L % = cte 6.25%

   

The highest percentage of change corresponds to the thinnest rod, the correct answer is a
