The total lifetime of the Sun is about 10 billion years, from when it was born to when it dies, and the half-life of 238U is 4.5

billion years. Suppose a particular meteoroid contained 24 micrograms of uranium-238 (238U) when the Sun was born. If the meteoroid is still in orbit when the Sun dies, it will contain _____

Answer:

a little less than 6 micrograms

Explanation:

The half-life of an element is defined as the time in which half of the isotope emits its radiation and becomes a different element. Therefore after 4.5 billion years the meteoroid will contain 12 micrograms of uranium,  after 9 billion years will contain 6 micrograms. After 10 billion years will contain a little less than 6 micrograms.

Zanzabum

Answer: find the answer in the explanation

Explanation:

When a magnet is placed at the centre of the paper, and the nails are sprinkled on the paper, what will happen to the nails is that, the nails will form a pattern on the paper according to the magnetic field of the bar magnetic pole.

Other phenomena you can observe are:

1.) The nails will align themselves and show some lines of forces which is equivalent to the magnetic field lines

2.) The direction of the line of forces

3.) The strength of the magnetic field pole.

Explain how a voltage is produced in the secondary coil of the transformer.
Tema [17]

Answer:

the primary coil current produces a magnetic field, which changes as the current changes. the iron core increases the strength of the magnetic field. the changing magnetic field induces a changing potential difference (voltage) in the secondary coil.

A stationary boat in the ocean is experiencing waves from a storm. the waves move at 56 km/h and have a wavelength of 160 m, bot
Lera25 [3.4K]
The wavelength \lambda of the wave is 160 m, and this is the distance between two consecutive crests. The boat is located at a crest of the wave, this means that the first trough is located 80 meters from the boat (because the distance between a crest and a trough is half the wavelength).

The speed of the wave is 
v=56 km/h = 15.6 m/s
so the time the boat takes to reach the first trough is
t= \frac{S}{v} = \frac{80 m}{15.6 m/s}=5.1 s
