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)

plant and animal mitosis are very similar except for cytokinesis. explain how this process is different.
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

Cell division or cytokinesis in mitosis or meiosis is very similar... There is a region of division to separate the two daughter cells in both processes; however, the division plate is slightly different between animal cells and plant cells. In animals, the region of division is a division plate. hope this helps! :)

igomit [66]

Answer:

Some animals would be forced to migrate.

Explanation:

Animals and species cannot adapt, evolve, or go extinct in a matter of weeks. Adaptation and evolution happen over the course of hundreds of thousands of years and extinction would be unlikely unless there was an extremely endangered species that died when the forest was cut down.

Can air pollution cause localized deaths of a large number of people within just a few days? explain. (site 1)
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

When air pollution began, it caused acid rain, damaging and destroying forests. It caused animals to become ill and potentially die as the acid rain ruined their environment. The air pollution also made around 400,000 people die faster than they would without air pollution.
