Every chemical element goes through natural exponential decay, which means that over time its atoms fall apart. The speed of eac

h element's decay is described by its half-life, which is the amount of time it takes for the number of radioactive atoms of this element to be reduced by half. The half-life of the isotope dubnium-263 is 29 seconds. A sample of dubnium-263 was first measured to have 1024 atoms. After t seconds, there were only 32 atoms of this isotope remaining. Write an equation in terms of t that models the situation.

Answer:

t = ln (N/N°)/(-0.0239)

Explanation :

The decay law is represented as

N = N°e^-kt

Where N is the final number of atom,

N° is the initial number of atoms

k is the decay constant

t is the half-life.

From the above we have,

N/N° = e^-kt

take ln of both sides

ln (N/N°) = -kt

t = ln(N/N°)/-k

At half life, N/N° = 1/2

Therefore, t = (ln 1/2)/-k

t = -0.693/-k

But t = 29 sec

29 = -0.693/-k

k = 0.0239 s^-1

Therefore,

The formula will be

t = ln (N/N°)/(-0.0239)

When a fan is moving is convection, conduction, or raditation, and WHY?
Ksju [112]

Answer:

<em>Moving</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>fan</em><em> </em><em>is</em><em> </em><em>convection</em><em>.</em>

<em>The faster moving air from the fan displaces the warmer air that is in direct contact with our skin. This enhances the rate of convective heat transfer, which means we feel cooler.</em>

4:
Independent Variable: Photosynthesis
Dependent Variable: Starch

Starch is a product of photosynthesis. Without photosynthesis, starch cannot form. Therefore starch is dependent on photosynthesis.

5:
Independent Variable: Temperature
Dependent Variable: Animal Metabolism

Animal metabolism will only be affected if the temperature of the room changes. Therefore animal metabolism is dependent on temperature.

9:
Independent Variable: Rainfall
Dependent Variable: Thickness of growth rings

The thickness of the tree's growth rings are determined by the amount of rainfall. Therefore the thickness of growth rings are dependent on rainfall.
