Carbon-14 is a radioactive isotope that has a half-life of 5,730 years. Approximately how many years will it take for carbon-14

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

Carbon-14 will take 19,035 years to decay to 10 percent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential Decay Function

A radioactive half-life refers to the amount of time it takes for half of the original isotope to decay.

An exponential decay can be described by the following formula:

$N(t)=N_{0}e^{-\lambda t}$

Where:

No = The quantity of the substance that will decay.

N(t) = The quantity that still remains and has not yet decayed after a time t

$\lambda$ = The decay constant.

One important parameter related to radioactive decay is the half-life:

$\displaystyle t_{1/2}=\frac {\ln(2)}{\lambda }$

If we know the value of the half-life, we can calculate the decay constant:

$\displaystyle \lambda=\frac {\ln(2)}{ t_{1/2}}$

Carbon-14 has a half-life of 5,730 years, thus:

$\displaystyle \lambda=\frac {\ln(2)}{ 5,730}$

$\lambda=0.00012097$

The equation of the remaining quantity of Carbon-14 is:

$N(t)=N_{0}e^{-0.00012097\cdot t}$

We need to calculate the time required for the original amout to reach 10%, thus N(t)=0.10No

$0.10N_o=N_{0}e^{-0.00012097\cdot t}$

Simplifying:

$0.10=e^{-0.00012097\cdot t}$

Taking logarithms:

$ln 0.10=-0.00012097\cdot t$

Solving for t:

$\displaystyle t=\frac{log 0.10}{-0.00012097}$

$t\approx 19,035\ years$

Carbon-14 will take 19,035 years to decay to 10 percent.

Joel built a model town. He constructed three buildings that each had a volume of 18 cm cubed. Each building looked different. W

morpeh [17]

Answer:

The three buildings can look like following:

1. The building can look like a cube, with each side and height equal to 2.62 cm.

2. The building can look like a cuboid, with 3 cm length, 1 cm breadth and 6 cm height.

3. The building can look like a pyramid, with 3 cm length, 3 cm breadth and 6 cm height.

Step-by-step explanation:

The three possibilities of the appearance or shape of the building, with the volume equal to 18 cm³ are as follows:

1. CUBIC SHAPE:

The building can look like a cube with the length of each side and height given as:

Volume of Cube = 18 cm³ = L³

L = ∛18 cm³ = 2.62 cm

Thus, the building can look like a cube, with each side and height equal to 2.62 cm.

2. CUBOID SHAPE:

The building can also look like cuboid with the following dimensions.

Length = 3 cm

Breadth = 1 cm

Height = 6 cm

Thus, the volume becomes:

Volume of Cuboid = Length * Breadth * Height

Volume of Cuboid = 3 cm * 1 cm * 6 cm = 18 cm³

Thus, the building can look like a cuboid, with 3 cm length, 1 cm breadth and 6 cm height.

3. PYRAMID SHAPE:

The building can also look like pyramid with the following dimensions.

Length = 3 cm

Breadth = 3 cm

Height = 6 cm

Thus, the volume becomes:

Volume of Pyramid = (Length * Breadth * Height)/3

Volume of Cuboid = (3 cm * 3 cm * 6 cm)/3 = 18 cm³

Thus, the building can look like a pyramid, with 3 cm length, 3 cm breadth and 6 cm height.

Write an equation perpendicular to the line y=3/2x-2 that goes through (-4,3)

Goryan [66]

Answer: y=-2/3x-2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

concept to know: two lines that are perpendicular has opposite reciprocal slopes.

y=-2/3x+b

in order to find b or the y-intercept, we need to plug in a point

3=-2/3(-4)+b

3=8/3+b

b=-2/3

y=-2/3x-2/3

Hope this helps!! :)
