IRISSAK [1]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

22,800 years

Explanation:

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.

0.0625 = (½)^(t / 5700)

log 0.0625 = (t / 5700) log 0.5

4 = t / 5700

t = 22,800

It takes 22,800 years.

weqwewe [10]

Answer:

115.2^{\circ}C

Explanation:

When an amount of energy Q is supplied to a substance of mass m, the temperature of the substance increases by \Delta T, according to the equation

Q=mC_s \Delta T

where C_s is the specific heat capacity of the substance.

In this problem, we have:

Q=250 \cdot 4.184 =1046 J is the amount of heat supplied to the sample of gold

m = 0.1 kg = 100 g is the mass of the sample

C_s = 0.175 J/gC is the specific heat capacity of gold

Solving for \Delta T, we find the change in temperature

\Delta T = \frac{Q}{m C_s}=\frac{1046}{(100)(0.175)}=59.8^{\circ}

And since the final temperature was

T_f = 175^{\circ}

The initial temperature was

T_i = T_f - \Delta T= 175 -59.8=115.2^{\circ}C

Darya [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

The speed of sound in air to be 343 m/s.

Given:

distance 'd' = 5 m

L = 12 m

It can be concluded that path difference must be equal to half of the wavelength when person is observing destructive interference'y' at 1 m distance from the equidistant position

Since

λ/2 = yd/L

λ/2 = (1 x 5)/12

λ = 0.833m

Frequency of the sound is given by,

f = v / λ => 343 / 0.833

f=411.6 Hz
