Half life is 5700 years,that is 50%.

6.25% means 1/16 of the life is left.

T^1/16 =T^1/2*4.

5700 × 4 =22800 years

Please can someone solve this physics question with a good explenation.

zimovet [89]

Answer:

The coefficient of dynamic friction is 0.025.

Explanation:

Given:

Initial speed after the push is 'v' as seen in the graph.

Final speed of the stone is 0 m/s as it comes to rest.

Total distance traveled is, $D=29.8\ m$

Total time taken is, $t_{total}=17.5\ s$

Time interval for deceleration is 3.5 to 17.5 s which is for 14 s.

Now, average speed of the stone is given as:

$v_{avg}=\frac{D}{t_{total}}=\frac{29.8}{17.5}=1.703\ m/s$

Now, we know that, average speed can also be expressed as:

$v_{avg}=\frac{v_i+v_f}{2}\\1.703=\frac{v+0}{2}\\v=2\times 1.703=3.41\ m/s$

Now, from the graph, the vertical height of the triangles is, $v=3.41\ m/s$

The deceleration is given as the slope of the line from time 3.5 s to 17.5 s.

Therefore, deceleration is:

$a=\frac{\textrm{Vertical height}}{\textrm{Time interval}}\\a=\frac{v-0}{17.5-3.5}\\a=\frac{3.41}{14}=0.244\ m/s^2$

Frictional force is the net force acting on the stone. Frictional force is given as:

$f=\mu_dN\\Where, \mu_d\rightarrow \textrm{coefficient of dynamic friction}\\N\rightarrow \textrm{Normal force}\\N=mg\\\therefore f=\mu_dmg$

Now, from Newton's second law, net force is equal to the product of mass and acceleration.

Therefore,

$\mu_dmg=ma\\\mu_d=\frac{a}{g}$

Plug in 0.244 for 'a' and 9.8 for 'g'. This gives,

$\mu_d=\frac{a}{g}=\frac{0.244}{9.8}=0.025$

Therefore, the coefficient of dynamic friction is 0.025.

Iris

Explanation:

The iris seems to be the illuminated portion of the eyes which really covers the pupil. It controls the amount of light reaching the eye. The lens is indeed a translucent layer of the retina that serves to concentrate light and objects on the lens.

A small office experiences frequent power outages. Users at the location reports that after rebooting their Windows workstations

Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

Explanation:

Usually office's networks works using the TCP/IP protocol, this mean that each workstation has an assigned IP. This IP are the directions gave to each computer on the network,

This IP are usually asigned by a DHCP Server. Servers every time a new device connect to the Network, assigns to it an IP, this way every Computer will know how to send or request information from that Computer.

In the TCP/IP protocol is not posibble for two computer to have the same IP. This causes what it call IP Conflict, IP Conflict make imposible the comunications between those devices and the Network.

On Power outages all the Computer are turn off, because of this they disconnect from the Network and need to requests IP one more time to gain comunication,

We this in mind, we can predict that frequent power outages can cause for all the Computer in the Network to request new IPs very frequently this will cause IP Conflict in several units, disconnecting them from the network and making them no longer able to find files on the network. To fix this, what can be done it to establish Static IP to every workstation, this way we they request a new IP, the DHCP Serve will assign them the same IP form every session.

This way, the IP Conficlt can end. Another option is to make the DHCP to assign new IP to every unit one more time, eliminating the machines with same IP.
