Iodine-131 has a half life of 8 days, so half of it is gone every 8 days.
10 grams of iodine-131 is left for 24 days.
At 8 days: 10/2=5 grams left
At 16 days: 5/2=2.5 grams left
At 24 days: 2.5/2=1.25 grams left.
**
Your mistake is that you stopped at 16 days.

6–23 an automobile engine consumes fuel at a rate of 22 l/h and delivers 55 kw of power to the wheels. if the fuel has a heating
Anna007 [38]

Explanation & answer:

Given:

Fuel consumption, C = 22 L/h

Specific gravity = 0.8

output power, P  =  55 kW

heating value, H = 44,000 kJ/kg

Solution:

Calculate energy intake

E = C*P*H

= (22 L/h) / (3600 s/h) * (1000 mL/L) * (0.8 g/mL) * (44000 kJ/kg)

= (22/3600)*1000*0.8*44000 j/s

= 215111.1 j/s

Calculate output power

P = 55 kW

= 55000 j/s

Efficiency

= output / input

= P/E

=55000 / 215111.1

= 0.2557

= 25.6% to 1 decimal place.

A child sits 1.6 m from the center of a merry go round that makes one complete revolution in 4.7 s. What is his angular accelera
olga2289 [7]

Answer: angular acceleration = 2.86\ rad/sec^{2}

Given:

Distance from center of axis = 1.6 m

Time taken to complete one revolution = 4.7 sec

Therefore, we can evaluate the angular acceleration using the following formula:

\alpha = r\times \omega^{2}

\alpha = r\times (\frac{2\pi}{T})^{2}

\alpha = 1.6\times (\frac{2\times3.14}{4.7})^{2}

\alpha = 2.86\ rad/sec^{2}
