The mental area described above is the working memory.

It is a cognitive system which receives the information collected by a person's senses and manipulates it for processing or for elaborating responses in the short run. Is crucial for reasoning and for the decision making processes that shape attitudes and behaviour.

The working memory is the intermediate step between the short term memory, where the information collected is immediately available for a short time not processed, and the long-term memory (LTM), where information is stored definitely.

Suppose you find a rock that contains 10 micrograms of radioactive potassium-40, which has a half-life of 1.25 billion years. By
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

The rock is 3.75 billion years ago.

Explanation:

Given that:

Half life = 1.25 billion years

1 billion years = 10⁹ years

So,

Half life = 1.25 × 10⁹ years

t_{1/2}=\frac {ln\ 2}{k}

Where, k is rate constant

So,  

k=\frac {ln\ 2}{t_{1/2}}

k=\frac {ln\ 2}{1.25\times 10^9}\ year^{-1}

The rate constant, k = 5.5452 × 10⁻¹⁰ years⁻¹

Initial amount [A₀] = 80 micrograms

Final amount [A_t] = 10 micrograms

Using integrated rate law for first order kinetics as:

[A_t]=[A_0]e^{-kt}

So,  

10=80\times e^{-5.5452\times 10^{-10}\times t}

80e^{-5.5452\times \:10^{-10}x}=10

\frac{80e^{-5.5452\times \:10^{-10}x}}{80}=\frac{10}{80}

\ln \left(e^{-5.5452\times \:10^{-10}x}\right)=\ln \left(\frac{1}{8}\right)

x=\frac{10^{10}\times \:3\ln \left(2\right)}{5.5452}=3.75\times 10^9

So,

<u>The rock is 3.75 billion years ago.</u>

What is Ethnic Community?
olchik [2.2K]
To shortly answer your question, an ethic community is a community of people who relate to each other in terms of culture, traditions, and overall ethnicities. An example of an ethnic community (I am speaking on myself) would be Juneteenth. In no way do I mean offense, it is just a mere example. If you need better understanding, let me know and I will gladly assist you.
