<h3><u>Answer</u>;</h3>
1600 years
<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
- Half life is the time taken for a radioactive isotope to decay by half of its original amount.
- We can use the formula; N = O × (1/2)^n ; where N is the new mass, O is the original amount and n is the number of half lives.
- A sample of radium-226 takes 3200 years to decay to 1/4 of its original amount.
Therefore;
<em>1/4 = 1 × (1/2)^n</em>
<em>1/4 = (1/2)^n </em>
<em>n = 2 </em>
Thus; <em>3200 years is equivalent to 2 half lives.</em>
<em>Hence, the half life of radium-226 is 1600 years</em>
Some characteristics I think would include that low energy waves have a greater distance between the points on the crest or points on trough in the wave. Greater, longer wavelength. Thus lower frequency hence less energy provided through the wave. The amplitude for low energy waves is less than that of high energy waves. Basically the height of the wave.
Clouds form when water vapor in the air condenses into visible water droplets or ice crystals
B
when hurricanes hit land, it weakens them
Distance is a scalar quantity that refers to "how much ground an object has covered" during its motion. Displacement is a vector quantity that refers to "how far out of place an object is"; it is the object's overall change in position.
