If We Start With 48 Atoms Of A Radioactive Substance, How Many Would Remain After One Half-life?

Physics

4 0

<span>One half-life produces (1/2) of the decaying substance.

There would still be  48  atoms.  But  24  would have thrown off
particles from their nucleuses, and only  24  would still be radioactive.</span>

Therefore, the kinetic energy of an object is proportional to the square of its velocity (speed). In other words, If there is a twofold increase in speed, the kinetic energy will increase by a factor of four. If there is a threefold increase in speed, the kinetic energy will increase by a factor of nine.

Glass as it is heavier and by newtons first law and inertia the greater the mass = more inertia(resistance to chabge in motion) thus the glass has a greater mass than an empty paper cup and thus has greater inertia. So it would be easier to leave it in place

The hot glowing surfaces of stars emit energy in the form of electromagnetic radiation. It is a good approximation to assume tha
belka [17]

Given that,

Energy H=2.7\times10^{31}\ W

Surface temperature = 11000 K

Emissivity e =1

(a). We need to calculate the radius of the star

Using formula of energy

H=Ae\sigma T^4

A=\dfrac{H}{e\sigma T^4}

4\pi R^2=\dfrac{H}{e\sigma T^4}

R^2=\dfrac{H}{e\sigma T^4\times4\pi}

Put the value into the formula

R=\sqrt{\dfrac{2.7\times10^{31}}{1\times5.67\times10^{-8}\times(11000)^4\times 4\pi}}

R=5.0\times10^{10}\ m

(b). Given that,

Radiates energy H=2.1\times10^{23}\ W

Temperature T = 10000 K

We need to calculate the radius of the star

Using formula of radius

R^2=\dfrac{H}{e\sigma T^4\times4\pi}

Put the value into the formula

R=\sqrt{\dfrac{2.1\times10^{23}}{1\times5.67\times10^{-8}\times(10000)^4\times4\pi}}

R=5.42\times10^{6}\ m

Hence, (a). The radius of the star is 5.0\times10^{10}\ m

(b). The radius of the star is 5.42\times10^{6}\ m
