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.

mass of iron block given as

m_1 = 1.90 kg

density of iron block is

\rho = 7860 kg/m^3

now the volume of the iron piece is given as

V = \frac{m}{\rho}

V = \frac{1.90}{7860} = 2.42* 10^{-4} m^3

Now when this iron block is complete submerged in oil inside the beaker the buoyancy force on the iron block will be given as

F_b = \rho_L V g

here we know that

\rho_L = density of liquid = 916 kg/m^3

F_b = 916* 2.42 * 10^{-4} * 9.8

F_b = 2.17 N

Now for the reading of spring balance we can say the spring force and buoyancy force on the block will counter balance the weight of the block at equilibrium

F_s + F_b = mg

F_s + 2.17 = 1.90* 9.8

F_s = 16.45 N

So reading of spring balance will be 16.45 N

Now for other scale which will read the normal force of the surface we can write that normal force on the container will balance weight of liquid + container and buoyancy force on block

F_n = F_g + F_b

F_n = (1 + 2.50)*9.8 + 2.17

F_n = 34.3 + 2.17 = 36.47 N

So the other scale will read 36.47 N

How does Newton's second law apply to an "Egg Drop" experiment?
Black_prince [1.1K]
Because an object in rest stays in rest until an unequal force pushes it so gravity is pushing on the egg making it drop

First we gotta use an equation of motion:

d = ut + \frac{1}{2} a {t}^{2}

Our vertical distance d= 100 m, initial vertical speed u = 0 m/s (because velocity is fully horizontal), and vertical acceleration a = 9.8 m/s2 because of gravity. Let's plug it all in!

100 = 0 + \frac{1}{2} (9.8) {t}^{2}

Now we just need to solve for t:

{t}^{2} = \frac{2(100)}{9.8} \\ \\ t = \sqrt{\frac{2(100)}{9.8}}

Hit the calculators, and you'll get 4.5 seconds!

A 30.0 kg dolphin decelerates from 12.0 to 7.00 m/s in 2.60 s to join another dolphin in play. What average force (in N) was exe
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

Force is 57.69 N to the opposite direction of motion of dolphin.

Explanation:

We have force is the product of mass and acceleration.

That is    

                 Force = Mass x Acceleration

                         F = ma

Mass of dolphin, m = 30 kg

We have equation of motion, v = u + at

Final velocity, v = 7 m/s

Initial velocity, u = 12 m/s

Time, t = 2.60 s

Substituting

                   7 = 12 + a x 2.6

                    a = -1.92 m/s²

Force,   F = 30 x -1.92 = -57.69 N

So the force is 57.69 N to the opposite direction of motion of dolphin.
