4 0

Answer:

I don't exactly know what you learned but it could be because of more friction or the bus was running out of gas.

You have a radioactive sample with a half-life of 1 hour. At t = 1 hour, a Geiger counter measures its radiation at 40 counts/mi
Mama L [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that, .

The half-life of a radioactive element is

t½ = 1 hr.

At the first hour, the radioactive element has 40 counts/minute

After 4 hours it has 5 counts/minute

So,

We want to filled the table.

0 hours, I.e at the start

40 counts/mins × 2 = 80 counts / mis

First half-life (first hour) is

40 counts/mins

Second half-life (second hour)

40 counts/mins × ½ = 20 counts/mins

Third half-life (third hour)

40 counts/mins × ¼ = 10 counts / mins

Fourth half life (fourth hour)

40 counts/mins × ⅛ = 5 counts / mins

So, the table is

Time........................Geiger Counter Rate

0 hours.................... 80 counts / minutes

1 hour........................ 40 counts / minutes

2 hours..................... 20 counts / minutes

3 hours..................... 10counts / minutes

4 hours...................... 5 counts / minute

irina [24]

Complete Question:

The elastic energy stored in your tendons can contribute up to 35 % of your energy needs when running. Sports scientists have studied the change in length of the knee extensor tendon in sprinters and nonathletes. They find (on average) that the sprinters' tendons stretch 43 mm , while nonathletes' stretch only 32 mm . The spring constant for the tendon is the same for both groups, 31 {\rm {N}/{mm}}. What is the difference in maximum stored energy between the sprinters and the nonathlethes?

Answer:

\triangle E = 12.79 J

Explanation:

Sprinters' tendons stretch, x_s = 43 mm = 0.043 m

Non athletes' stretch, x_n = 32 mm = 0.032 m

Spring constant for the two groups, k = 31 N/mm = 3100 N/m

Maximum Energy stored in the sprinter, E_s = 0.5kx_s^2

Maximum energy stored in the non athletes, E_m = 0.5kx_n^2

Difference in maximum stored energy between the sprinters and the non-athlethes:

\triangle E = E_s - E_n = 0.5k(x_s^2 - x_n^2)\\\triangle E = 0.5*3100* (0.043^2 - 0.032^2)\\\triangle E = 0.5*31000*0.000825\\\triangle E = 12.79 J

When a nerve cell depolarizes, charge is transferred across the cell membrane, changing the potential difference. For a typical
laila [671]

Answer:

I = 18 x 10⁻⁹ A = 18 nA

Explanation:

The current is defined as the flow of charge per unit time. Therefore,

I = q/t

where,

I = Average Current passing through nerve cell

q = Total flow of charges through nerve cell

t = time period of flow of charges

Here, in our case:

I = ?

q = (9 pC)(1 x 10⁻¹² C/1 pC) = 9 x 10⁻¹² C

t = (0.5 ms)(1 x 10⁻³ s/1 ms) = 5 x 10⁻⁴ s

Therefore,

I = (9 x 10⁻¹² C)/(5 x 10⁻⁴ s)

<u>I = 18 x 10⁻⁹ A = 18 nA</u>
