Suppose you could fit 100 dimes, end to end, between your card with the pinhole and your dime-sized sunball. how many suns could

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer: 100 suns

Explanation:

We can solve this with the following relation:

$\frac{d}{x_{sunball-pinhole}}=\frac{D}{x_{sun-pinhole}}$

Where:

$d=17.91 mm =17.91(10)^{-3} m$ is the diameter of a dime

$D$ is the diameter of the Sun

$x_{sun-pinhole}=150,000,000 km=1.5(10)^{11} m$ is the distance between the Sun and the pinhole

$x_{sunball-pinhole}=100 d=1.791 m$ is the amount of dimes that fit in a distance between the sunball and the pinhole

Finding $D$ :

$D=\frac{d}{x_{sunball-pinhole}}x_{sun-pinhole}$

$D=\frac{17.91(10)^{-3} m}{1.791 m} 1.5(10)^{11} m$

$D=1.5(10)^{9} m$ This is roughly the diameter of the Sun

Now, the distance between the Earth and the Sun is one astronomical unit (1 AU), which is equal to:

$1 AU=149,597,870,700 m$

So, we have to divide this distance between $D$ in order to find how many suns could it fit in this distance:

$\frac{149,597,870,700 m}{1.5(10)^{9} m}=99.73 suns \approx 100 suns$

Use this table of a school bus during morning pickups to calculate its average speed between 0 h and 2.340 h.

Gelneren [198K]

The average speed between 0 h and 2.340 h is 6.97 Km/h

Average speed is defined as the total distance travelled divided by the total time taken to cover the distance.

$Average \: speed = \frac{total \: distance}{total \: time} \\ \\$

With the above formula, we can obtain the average speed between 0 h and 2.340 h as illustrated below:

Total time = 2.340 – 0 = 2.340 h
Total distance = 16.3 – 0 = 16.3 Km
Average speed =?

$Average \: speed = \frac{total \: distance}{total \: time} \\ \\Average \: speed = \frac{16.3}{2.340} \\ \\ Average \: speed = 6.97 \: Km/h \\ \\$

Iodine 131 half life is 8.0 days. Ten percent of the original sample o his isotope remains after (a) 22.7 days (b) 24.9 days (c)

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

option (c) is correct

Explanation:

Half life of a substance is the time in which the element becomes half of is initial value.

half life, T = 8 days

Amount remaining, N = 10 % of original value

Let the original value is No.

N = 10% of No

N = 0.1 No

Let the time taken is t and the decay constant is λ.

The relation between the decay constant and the half life is given by

$\lambda =\frac{0.6931}{T}=\frac{0.6931}{8}=0.08664 per day$

Us the equation of radioactivity

$N=N_{0}e^{-\lambda t}$

$0.1N_{0}=N_{0}e^{-0.08664 t}$

$e^{0.08664 t}=10$

Taking natural log on both the sides, we get

0.08664 t = 2.303

t = 26.6 days
