A radioactive isotope has a half-life of 5,000 years. A rock originally contained 16 grams of radioactive isotope, and now conta

mixas84 [53]

Answer:

10,000 years

Explanation:

Given that,

Half life of the radioactive isotope, $t_{\frac{1}{2}}$ = 5000 years

Initial composition, $N_0$ = 16 grams

Final composition, $N$ = 4 grams

We know that,

$N=N_0\times (\dfrac{1}{2})^\frac{t}{t_\frac{1}{2}}}\\\\4=16(0.5)^\frac{t}{5000}}\\\\\dfrac{4}{16}=(0.5)^{\frac{t}{5000}}\\\\0.25=(0.5)^\frac{t}{5000}\\\\0.5^2=(0.5)^\frac{t}{5000}\\\\2=\dfrac{t}{5000}\\\\t=2\times 5000\\\\t=10000\ yrs$

Therefore, the age of the rock is 10,000 years.

A 1120 kg car traveling initially with a speed of 27.40 m/s in an easterly direction crashes into the back of a 9 490 kg truck m

asambeis [7]

Answer:

41.5 m/s

Explanation:

Since there are no external forces, momentum must be conserved.

Momentum P = mv.

Total momentum before the collision:

$P = m_{car}v_{car} + m_{tru}_{ck}v_{tru}_{ck} = 1120 * 27.4 + 490 * 20 = 40.488$

Total momentum after the collision:

$P = 1120 * 18 + 490 * v_{tru}_{ck} = 40.488$

solving for v:

$v_{truck} = 41.5$
