9. A radioisotope has a half-life of 4.50 min and an initial decay rate of 8400 Bq. What will be

Physics

Akimi4 [234]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

525 Bq

Explanation:

The decay rate is directly proportional to the amount of radioisotope, so we can use the half-life equation:

A = A₀ (½)^(t / T)

A is the final amount

A₀ is the initial amount,

t is the time,

T is the half life

A = (8400 Bq) (½)^(18.0 min / 4.50 min)

A = (8400 Bq) (½)^4

A = (8400 Bq) (1/16)

A = 525 Bq

Name human body organs where magnetism is significant
ser-zykov [4K]
It has been hypothesized, and some studies have supported the conjecture,
that certain species of insects and birds are able to sense the direction of external
magnetic fields.

I don't think there is any such notion where human beings are concerned.

A skier leaves the horizontal end of a ramp with a velocity of 31.0 m/s and lands 156.3 m from the base of a ramp how high is th
BartSMP [9]

<u>Answer:</u>

The height of ramp = 124.694 m

<u>Explanation:</u>

Using second equation of motion,

s = ut + \frac{1}{2}at^2

From the question,

u = 31 m/s; s = 156.3 m, a=0

substituting values

156.3 = 31\times t + 0

t = \frac{156.3}{31 }

= 5.042 s

Similary, for the case of landing

t = 5.042 s; initial velocity, u =0

acceleration = acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.81 m/s^2

Substituting in h = ut + \frac{1}{2}gt^2

h = 0 + \frac{1}{2} \times 9.81 \times (5.042)^2

h = 124.694 m

So height of ramp = 124.694 m
