Answer:

The answer to your question is 25 grams

Explanation:

Data

half-life = 5730 years

sample = 200 g

after 3 half-lives

Process

Calculate the amount of sample after one, two and three half-lives.

After each half-life, that of sample is half the previous amount.

                         Number of half-lives           Amount of sample

                                       0                                        200 g

                                        1                                         100 g

                                        2                                          50 g

                                       3                                           25 g

Why are fixed resistors’ values indicated by color bands rather than printing the numeric value on their exterior?
gladu [14]
Because there are so many different values of numbers, it would be impractical to use 1Ω, 2Ω, 3Ω... etc... Using colored bands helps make reading it a little easier to the trained eye. There are hundreds of thousands, if not tens of millions of different resistors would need to exist to cover every value. So you just use something called "preferred values" with their resistance values posted on them instead.

How much heat energy is required to raise the temperature of 0.360 kg of copper from 23.0 ∘C to 60.0 ∘C? The specific heat of co
AVprozaik [17]
MThe  heat  energy  required  to  raise  the  temperature   of  0.36Kg   of  copper   from   22 c   to  60  c  is  calculate  using  the  following  formula

MC delta T
m(mass)=  0.360kg  in  grams  =  0.360  x1000 = 360 g
  c(specific  heat  energy)  =  0.0920  cal/g.c
delta T =  60- 23  = 37  c

heat  energy is therefore=  360g   x0.0920 cal/g.c  x 37  c=  1225.44  cal
