B. The reference point is the 0 of a straight line description. Left of it would be negative and right of it would be positive.

Answer:

Reference point

Explanation:

To explain the position of an object, we have to choose some location or point from where we start to observe the position of the object. This point is called reference point.

As we move leftwards from the reference point, the position of the object is taken as negative and if we move rightwards from the reference point, the position of the object is taken as positive.

The half-life for a 100-gram sample of radioactive element X is 5 days. How much of element X remains after 10 days have passed?
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

25g

Explanation:

Given parameters:

    Half life of X = 5days

Mass of sample of radioactive elements  = 100g

The half-life of a radioactive material is the time it takes for a sample to decay by half. At the half-life, an original sample would have yielded equal daughter to parent ratio.

 At time (days)            Mass of sample

      0                                 100g

     5                                    50g

    10                                    25g

Every 5 days, the sample will split into half.

Therefore, 25g will remain after 10days.
