It's oil, but the thing is within an engine the oil through pressure changes changed said oil into a gas before it combusts. but yeah because it's a liquid I guess :DDDD

Cesium-137 undergoes beta decay and has a half-life of 30.0 years. How many beta particles are emitted by a 14.0-g sample of ces

Mandarinka [93]

Answer: $0.81\times 10^{16}$ beta particles

Explanation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$

Given mass = 14.0 g

Molar mass = 137 g/mol

$\text{Number of moles of cesium}=\frac{14.0g}{137g/mol}=0.102moles$

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance weighs equal to its molecular mass and contains avogadro's number $6.023\times 10^{23}$ of particles.

1 mole of cesium contains atoms = $6.023\times 10^{23}$

0.102 moles of cesium contains atoms = $\frac{6.023\times 10^{23}}{1}\times 0.102=0.614\times 10^{23}$

The relation of atoms with time for radioactivbe decay is:

$N_t=N_0\times \frac{1}{2}^{\frac{t}{t_{\frac{1}{2}}}}$

Where $N_t$ =atoms left undecayed

$N_0$ = initial atoms

t = time taken for decay = 3 minutes

${t_{\frac{1}{2}}}$ = half life = 30.0 years = $1.577\times 10^7$ minutes

The fraction that decays : $1-(\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{3}{1.577\times 10^7}}=1.32\times 10^{-7}$

Amount of particles that decay is = $0.614\times 10^{23}\times 1.32\times 10^{-7}=0.81\times 10^{16}$

Thus $0.81\times 10^{16}$ beta particles are emitted by a 14.0-g sample of cesium-137 in three minutes.

There are many interesting applications of our energy density model to the flow of blood in the human circulatory system. One in

qaws [65]

Answer:

Pressure increases due to enlargement

Explanation:

Energy density is just a fancy name for pressure

Pressure is same at the bottom of the cups (same level-Pascal's law)

thus, Air pressure 1 + h1d1g = Air pressure 2 + h2d1g

= Air pressure 3 + (h2-h1)d2g +h1d1g

from the first 2, we get that since h2>h1, AP2<AP1

from the next 2, we get that since d2<d1, AP3>AP2

from first and third, we get that AP1>AP3

thus, finally AP1>AP3>AP2

for fluids flowing in tubes (blood vessel in this case)

P+0.5dv^2 + gh is constant (also called the bernoulli equation

for the same blood vessel, the heights remain same i.e h1=h2

for same flow rate, inc in area decreases the speed at which the blood flows as vA must remain same

hence, P increases due to enlargement
