Answer:

B) the decay rates of radioactive uranium and lead

Explanation:

As we know that when she found the substance it must have some fixed ratio of radioactive uranium and Lead in that substance.

Here since Uranium is radioactive substance so it will continuously convert into Lead and this ratio will change with time

So here we can say that the ratio of radioactive uranium and lead will depend on its decay rate

now to find the age of the substance we can find the present ratio of lead and uranium in that substance and then compare it with freshly prepared substance.

so by the formula

$t = \frac{1}{\lambda}ln(\frac{N_0}{N})$

we can find the age of the sample

Answer:

B) the decay rates of radioactive uranium and lead

Explanation:

The radioactive decay is modeled using an exponential function with an essential parameter, namely the decay rate. The two rates (for urianium and lead) allow her to determine the number of years that passed since the time the zirconium was formed.

A circuit element consists of a resistor with value 20Ω and inductor with value 10mH connected in series. A voltage of LaTeX: v(

Flura [38]

Answer:

8.97 Watt

Explanation:

Resistance, R = 20 ohm

Inductance, L = 10 mH

V(t) = 20 Cos (1000 t + 45°)

Compare with the standard equation

V(t) = Vo Cos(ωt + Ф)

Ф = 45°

ω = 1000 rad/s

Vo = 20 V

Inductive reactance, XL = ωL = 1000 x 0.01 = 10 ohm

impedance is Z.

$Z = \sqrt{R^{2}+X_{L}^{2}}$

$Z = \sqrt{20^{2}+10^{2}}$

Z = 22.36 ohm

$V_{rms}=\frac{V_{0}}{\sqrt{2}}$

$V_{rms}=\frac{20}{\sqrt{2}} = 14.144 V$

$I_{rms}=\frac{V_{rms}}{Z}=\frac{14.144}{\sqrt{22.36}}=0.634 A$

Apparent power is given by

P = Vrms x Irms

P = 14.144 x 0.634

P = 8.97 Watt

A 530-g squirrel with a surface area of 935 cm2 falls from a 4.4-m tree to the ground. Estimate its terminal velocity. (Use the

Agata [3.3K]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of squirrel,m=530 g= $\frac{530}{1000}=0.530 kg$

1kg=1000 g

Area=A= $935 cm^2=935\times 10^{-4} m^2$

$1 cm^2=10^{-4} m^2$

Height,h=4.4 m

C=1

$\rho=1.21 kg/m^3$

Width of rectangular prism,b=11.6 cm= $\frac{11.6}{100}=0.116 m$

1 m=100 cm

Length,l=23.2 cm= $0.232 m$

Area= $l\times b=0.116\times 0.232=0.0269 m^2$

Terminal velocity, $v_t=\sqrt{\frac{2mg}{\rho CA}}$

Where $g=9.8 m/s^2$

Using the formula

$v_t=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 0.530\times 9.8}{1.21\times 1\times 0.0269}}$

$v_t=17.86 m/s$

The velocity of person, $v=\sqrt{2gh}$

Using the formula

$v=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 4.4}$

$v=9.29 m/s$

A runner starts at point A, runs around a 1-mile track and finishes the run back at point A. Which of the following statements i

Lyrx [107]

This question is incomplete because the options are missing; here is the complete question:

A runner starts at point A, runs around a 1-mile track, and finishes the run back at point A. Which of the following statements is true?

A. The runner's displacement is 1 mile.

B. The runner's displacement is zero.

C. The distance the runner covered is zero.

D. The runner's speed was zero.

The answer to this question is B. The runner's displacement is zero

Explanation:

Displacement always implies a change of position; this means an object or individual moves from point A to point B, and therefore the original position is different from the final position. Additionally, in displacement, other related factors such as the total distance the body moved and the direction of movement. In the case presented, it can be concluded there was no displacement or the displacement is zero because even when the runner moved and ran two miles, he returned to the initial position, and without a change in the position, there is no displacement.

A current 2a flows in a circuit fir 2 minutes. Calculate the charge generated in a circuit

nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

the charge generated in the circuit is 240 C.

Explanation:

Given;

current flowing in the circuit, I = 2A

time of current flow, t = 2 minutes = 2 x 60s = 120 s

The current flowing through a given circuit is defined as the quantity of charge flowing through the circuit in a given time.

$I = \frac{Q}{t} \\\\Q = I t$

where;

Q is the charge flowing in the circuit

Q = 2 x 120

Q = 240 C

Therefore, the charge generated in the circuit is 240 C.
