Bismuth-212 has a half-life of 60.5 minutes. Find the amount of bismuth-212 left from a 100-gram sample after 242 minutes

1 answer:

5 0

Notice that 242 = 4*60.5. This means after 242 minutes, the sample decays to $\dfrac1{2^4}=\dfrac1{16}$ of its original amount. So you end up with

$\dfrac{100\,\mathrm g}{16}=\boxed{6.25\,\mathrm g}$

$\frac{9}{56}\\$ Fraction of hour was spent by NAncy in lifting weights

Step-by-step explanation:

Time spent at the gym by Nancy = $\frac{7}{8}\,hour$

Time spent at lifting weights = $\frac{5}{7}\,hour$

What fraction of hour she spent in lifting weights?

Solving:

Fraction of hour she spent in lifting weights= Time spend at the gym-Time spent at lifting weights

Fraction of hour she spent in lifting weights= $\frac{7}{8}\,hour-\frac{5}{7}\,hour$

$=\frac{49}{56}-\frac{40}{56}\\=\frac{49-40}{56}\\=\frac{9}{56}\\$

So, $\frac{9}{56}\\$ Fraction of hour was spent by Nancy in lifting weights
