Answer:

44 years

Explanation:

Use half life equation:

A = A₀ (½)^(t / T)

where A is the final amount,

A₀ is the initial amount,

t is time,

and T is the half life.

0.25 A₀ = A₀ (½)^(t / 22)

0.25 = (½)^(t / 22)

t / 22 = 2

t = 44

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

The magnetic force points in the positive z-direction, which corresponds to the upward direction.

Option 2 is correct, the force points in the upwards direction.

Explanation:

The magnetic force on any charge is given as the cross product of qv and B

F = qv × B

where q = charge on the ball thrown = +q (Since it is positively charged)

v = velocity of the charged ball = (+vî) (velocity is in the eastern direction)

B = Magnetic field = (+Bj) (Magnetic field is in the northern direction; pointing forward)

F = qv × B = (+qvî) × (Bj)

F =

| î j k |

| qv 0 0|

| 0 B 0

F = i(0 - 0) - j(0 - 0) + k(qvB - 0)

F = (qvB)k N

The force is in the z-direction.

We could also use the right hand rule; if we point the index finger east (direction of the velocity), the middle finger northwards (direction of the magnetic field), the thumb points in the upward direction (direction of the magnetic force). Hence, the magnetic force is acting upwards, in the positive z-direction too.

Hope this Helps!!!

Driving along in your car, you take your foot off the gas, and your speedometer shows a reduction in speed. Describe an inertial
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

  v ’= v + v₀

a system can be another vehicle moving in the opposite direction.

Explanation:

In an inertial reference frame the speed of the vehicle is given by the Galileo transformational

          v ’= v - v₀

where v 'is the speed with respect to the mobile system, which moves with constant speed, v is the speed with respect to the fixed system and vo is the speed of the mobile system.

The vehicle's speedometer measures the harvest of a fixed system on earth, in this system v decreases, for a system where v 'increases it has to be a system in which the mobile system moves in the negative direction of the x axis, whereby the transformation ratio is

        v ’= v + v₀

Such a system can be another vehicle moving in the opposite direction.

Mariulka [41]

Answer:

=3.5 m/s

Explanation:

y = x tanθ - 1/2 g x² / (u²cos²θ )

y = 0.25 , x = 0.5, θ = 40°

.25 = .50 tan40 - .5 x 9.8x x²/ u²cos²40

.25 = .42 - 2.0875/u²

u = 3.5 m / s.
