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

how fast is a ball going when it hits the ground after being dropped from a height of 16m the acceleration of gravity is 9.8
Aneli [31]

Answer:

17.7 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

y₀ = 0 m

y = 16 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 9.8 m/s²

Find: v

v² = v₀² + 2a (y − y₀)

v² = (0 m/s)² + 2 (9.8 m/s²) (16 m − 0 m)

v = 17.7 m/s

The ball is moving at a speed of 17.7 m/s when it hits the ground.

A proton is released from rest at the positive plate of a parallel-plate capacitor. It crosses the capacitor and reaches the neg
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

2.1x10^6m/s

Explanation:

One electron has a charge of –1.602e-19 C

mass of electron is 9.1e-31 kg

mass of proton is 1.6726e−27 kg

mass ratio is 1.6726e−27 / 9.1e-31 = 1838

The force is constant, F

distance is constant, d

a = F/m

a increases by a factor 1838, as m decreases by that factor

a = a₀1838

v₀² = 2a₀d

v² = 2a₀d1838

v²/v₀² = 2a₀d1838 / 2a₀d = 1838

v² = 1838v₀² = 1838(45000)²

v = 45000√1838 = 2.1e6 m/s
