Halflife is the time taken by a radioactive substance by half its original mass. In this case the half life of the substance is 3 hours. 
Therefore; New mass = Original mass × (1/2)^n where n is the number of half lives. In this case, the half life is 3 hours and therefore; the number of half lives in 6 hours will be two.
 = if the original mass is 100%
new mass = 100 × (1/2)^2
                 = 100 × 1/4 = 25%
The remaining mass will be 1/4 of the original mass, meaning  a fraction of 3/4 of the  initial mass will have decayed.
Thus; the answer is 3/4

A current of 5 A passes through a variable resistor set to 15 Ω. Calculate the voltage
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

75 volt

Explanation:

Current (I) = 5 A

Resistance (R) = 15 Ω

Voltage (V) = ?

We know

R = V/I

15 = v / 5

v = 75 Volt

Under what condition is the instantaneous acceleration of a moving body equal to its average acceleration over time?
Rzqust [24]
If the acceleration is constant (negative or positive) the instantaneous acceleration cannot be

Average acceleration: [final velocity - initial velocity ] /Δ time

Instantaneous acceleration = d V / dt =slope of the velocity vs t graph

If acceleration is increasing, the slope of the curve at one moment will be higher than the average acceleration.

If acceleration is decreasing, the slope of the curve at one moment will be lower than the average acceleration.

If acceleration is constant, the acceleration at any moment is the same, then only at constant accelerations, the instantaneuos acceleration is the same than the average acceleration.

Constant zero acceleration is a particular case of constant acceleration, so at constant zero acceleration  the instantaneous accelerations is the same than the average acceleration: zero. But, it is not true that only at zero acceleration the instantaneous acceleration is equal than the average acceleration.

That is why the only true option and the answer  is the option D. only at constant accelerations.

Images formed by a convex mirror are always ​
gladu [14]

Answer:

Images formed by a convex mirror are always ​virtual

Explanation:

A virtual image is always created by a convex mirror, and it is always situated behind the mirror. The picture is vertical and situated at the focus point when the item is far away from the mirror. As the thing approaches the mirror, the image follows suit and increases until it reaches the same height as the object.

A(n ___ is used to determine where an implanted electrode is to be placed in a brain in 3-dimensions.
Fynjy0 [20]
A stereotaxic atlas is used to determine where an implanted electrode is to be placed in a brain in 3-dimensions. A stereotaxic atlas is used for doing a stereotactic surgery in order to cure the disorder occurred in the brain. This tool increase the accuracy, reliability, and the measurement of the brain because it gives the accurate brain map<span>.</span>
