After 4 half-lives, there was 1 gram.

1 half-life earlier, after 3 half-lives, there must have been 2 grams.

1 half-life earlier, after 2 half-lives, there must have been 4 grams.

1 half-life earlier, after 1 half-life, there must have been 8 grams.

1 half-life earlier, when it started decaying, there must have been 16 grams. <em>(B) </em>

A UHF television loop antenna has a diameter of 11 cm. The magnetic field of a TV signal is normal to the plane of the loop and,
Doss [256]

Answer:

-0.00152 V

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Diameter of the loop = 11 cm = 0.11m

Rate of change of magnetic field, dB/dt = 0.16 T/s

Radius of the loop = 0.055m

The area of the loop will be:

A = pi * r²

A = 3.142 * 0.055²

A = 0.0095 m²

The EMF induced in a loop of wire due to the presence of a changing magnetic field, dB, in a time interval, dt, is given as:

EMF = - N * A * dB/dt

In this case, there's only one loop, so N = 1.

Therefore:

EMF = -1 * 0.0095 * 0.16

EMF = -0.00152 V

The negative sign indicates that the current flowing through the loop acts opposite to the change in the magnetic field.

Answer: B

Longitudinal wave

Explanation:

Transverse waves have crests and troughs

Longitudinal waves have compressions and rarefactions. A compression is where the density of the wave medium is highest. While a rarefaction is where the density of the wave medium is lowest.

Since sound wave is a longitudinal wave. And longitudinal wave exists apart from sound, we can therefore conclude that it's a longitudinal wave in spring.

A system has two possible energy states, E0 and E1 (with E1 &gt; E0). If the difference between these energy states grows (E0 an
Ugo [173]

Answer:

The number of particles in state E0 over the number of particles in state E1  will reduce

Explanation:

E0 represents the ground level state when all the particles have same energy level.

E1 represents excited state in which only a few particle reaches

E0 and E1 get further apart  means that the energy difference between the two level increases.

Thus, the number of particles in state E0 over the number of particles in state E1  will reduce.

An eagle flying at 35 m/s emits a cry whose frequency is 440 Hz. A blackbird is moving in the same direction as the eagle at 10
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

a)  F=475.7Hz

b)  F'=410.899Hz

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Velocity of eagle V_1=35m/s

Frequency of eagle F_1=440Hz

Velocity of Black bird V_2=10m/s

Speed of sound s=343m/s

a)

Generally the equation for Frequency is mathematically given by

 F=f_0(\frac{v-v_2}{v-v_1})

 F=440(\frac{343-10}{343-35})

 F=475.7Hz

b)

Generally the equation for Frequency is mathematically given by

 F'=f_0(\frac{v+v_2}{v+v_1})

 F'=440(\frac{343+10}{343+35})

 F'=410.899Hz

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Sry,I only know the answer of q2

Chlorine is a non metal because it is bad conductor of heat and sodium is a metal because it is good conductor of heat.

The 3 ways in which metal is different from non metal are given below:

1)metal are good conductor of heat but nonmetal are bad conductor of heat.

2)metals are malleable but non metal aren't malleable.

3)metals are generally ductile but non metal aren't ductile.

Hope it will helpyou!
