Answer:
Explanation:
Since the equation for the illumination of an object, i.e. the brightness of the light, is <em>inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the light source</em>, the form of the function is:
Where x is the distance between the object and the light force, k is the constant of proportionality, and f(x) is the brightness.
Then, if you move halfway to the lamp the new distance is x/2 and the new brightness (call if F) is :

Then, you have found that the light is 4 times as bright as it originally was.
Answer:
Ratio of length will be 
Explanation:
We have given time period of the pendulum when length is
is 
And when length is
time period 
We know that time period is given by

So
----eqn 1
And
-------eqn 2
Dividing eqn 2 by eqn 1

Squaring both side

Answer: a) 3.85 days
b) 10.54 days
Explanation:-
Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

where,
k = rate constant = ?
t = time taken for decomposition = 3 days
a = let initial amount of the reactant = 100 g
a - x = amount left after decay process = 
First we have to calculate the rate constant, we use the formula :
Now put all the given values in above equation, we get


a) Half-life of radon-222:


Thus half-life of radon-222 is 3.85 days.
b) Time taken for the sample to decay to 15% of its original amount:
where,
k = rate constant = 
t = time taken for decomposition = ?
a = let initial amount of the reactant = 100 g
a - x = amount left after decay process = 


Thus it will take 10.54 days for the sample to decay to 15% of its original amount.
Answer:
715 N
Explanation:
Since the system is moving at a constant velocity, the net force must be 0. The tension on the road is equal and opposite direction with the kinetic friction force created by the road and the stuntman.
Let g = 9.8 m/s2
Gravity and equalized normal force is:
N = P = mg = 107*9.8 = 1048.6 N
Kinetic friction force and equalized tension force on the rope is

Answer:4kg
Explanation:
acceleration due to gravity(g)=10m/s^2
Weight(w)=40N
Weight=mass x g
40=mass x 10
Divide both sides by 10
Mass =40/10
Mass=4kg
