Answer:

Renewable energy is important because, unlike nonrenewable energy, renewable energy sources replenish overtime.

Explanation:

Nonrenewable energy sources, such as fossil fuels, will eventually run out because they do not replenish in a reasonable amount of time. On the other hand, renewable energy sources, like windand solar power and biofuel, are unlimited or practically unlimited.

You have a radioactive sample with a half-life of 1 hour. At t = 1 hour, a Geiger counter measures its radiation at 40 counts/mi

Mama L [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that, .

The half-life of a radioactive element is

t½ = 1 hr.

At the first hour, the radioactive element has 40 counts/minute

After 4 hours it has 5 counts/minute

So,

We want to filled the table.

0 hours, I.e at the start

40 counts/mins × 2 = 80 counts / mis

First half-life (first hour) is

40 counts/mins

Second half-life (second hour)

40 counts/mins × ½ = 20 counts/mins

Third half-life (third hour)

40 counts/mins × ¼ = 10 counts / mins

Fourth half life (fourth hour)

40 counts/mins × ⅛ = 5 counts / mins

So, the table is

Time........................Geiger Counter Rate

0 hours.................... 80 counts / minutes

1 hour........................ 40 counts / minutes

2 hours..................... 20 counts / minutes

3 hours..................... 10counts / minutes

4 hours...................... 5 counts / minute

WGVU-AM is a radio station that serves the Grand Rapids, Michigan area. The main broadcast frequency is 1480kHz. At a certain di

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

$\lambda = 202.7 \ m$

$w = 9.3 *10^{6} \ rad/s$

$k = 0.031 m^{-1}$

$E_{max} = 9.0 *10^{-3} \ V/m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The frequency of the radio station is $f= 1480 \ kHz = 1480 *10^{3}\ Hz$

The magnitude of the magnetic field is $B = 3.0* 10^{-11} \ T$

Generally the wavelength is mathematically represented as

$\lambda = \frac{c}{f}$

Here c is the speed of light with value $c = 3.0 *10^{8} \ m/s$

$\lambda = \frac{3.0 *10^{8}}{ 1480 *10^{3}}$

=> $\lambda = 202.7 \ m$

Generally the angular frequency is mathematically represented as

$w = 2 \pi * f$

=> $w = 2 * 3.142 * 1480 *10^{3}$

=> $w = 9.3 *10^{6} \ rad/s$

Generally the wave number is mathematically represented as

=> $k = \frac{2 \pi }{\lambda}$

=> $k = \frac{2 * 3.142 }{ 202.7}$

=> $k = 0.031 m^{-1}$

Generally the amplitude of the electric field at this distance from the transmitter is mathematically represented as

$E_{max} = c * B$

=> $E_{max} = 3.0 *10^{8} * 3.0* 10^{-11}$

=> $E_{max} = 9.0 *10^{-3} \ V/m$

Express 75−−√ in the form ab√.

Nana76 [90]

We can write 75 = 25 x 3
and √75 = √ (25 x 3) = √25 x √3
Now we know that square root of 25 is 5 a 5x5 = 25
so we can express this in the form of 5√3.
