Answer:
Hello your question is poorly written below is the complete question
Suppose the battery in a clock wears out after moving Ten thousand coulombs of charge through the clock at a rate of 0.5 Ma how long did the clock run on does battery and how many electrons per second slowed?
answer :
a) 231.48 days
b) n = 3.125 * 10^15
Explanation:
Battery moved 10,000 coulombs
current rate = 0.5 mA
<u>A) Determine how long the clock run on the battery. use the relation below</u>
q = i * t ----- ( 1 )
q = charge , i = current , t = time
10000 = 0.5 * 10^-3 * t
hence t = 2 * 10^7 secs
hence the time = 231.48 days
<u>B) Determine how many electrons per second flowed </u>
q = n*e ------ ( 2 )
n = number of electrons
e = 1.6 * 10^-19
q = 0.5 * 10^-3 coulomb ( charge flowing per electron )
back to equation 2
n ( number of electrons ) = q / e = ( 0.5 * 10^-3 ) / ( 1.6 * 10^-19 )
hence : n = 3.125 * 10^15
Answer:
8. 2.75·10^-4 s^-1
9. No, too much of the carbon-14 would have decayed for radiation to be detected.
Explanation:
8. The half-life of 42 minutes is 2520 seconds, so you have ...
1/2 = e^(-λt) = e^(-(2520 s)λ)
ln(1/2) = -(2520 s)λ
-ln(1/2)/(2520 s) = λ ≈ 2.75×10^-4 s^-1
___
9. Reference material on carbon-14 dating suggests the method is not useful for time periods greater than about 50,000 years. The half-life of C-14 is about 5730 years, so at 65 million years, about ...
6.5·10^7/5.73·10^3 ≈ 11344
half-lives will have passed. Whatever carbon 14 may have existed at the time will have decayed completely to nothing after that many half-lives.
My answer -
I believe that the answer is (A).
P.S
Happy to help you have an AWESOME!! day
Answer:
The (s) indicates that the state of matter for NaHCO3 is solid.
Explanation:
When a chemical reaction is written, the state of matter for each components of the reactants and products are mentioned in brackets along with their names or formulas.
For example, NaHCO3 has (s) mentioned in the brackets. The s shows that the state of matter for NaHCO3. (l) represents liquid format. (g) represents that the state of matter is gas.
Answer:
see below
Explanation:
a. 0.1886 x 12
=2.2632
This has 2 sig figures so the answer can only have 2 sig figures
2.3
b. 2.995 - 0.16685
=2.82815
The most accurate in the problem is to thousands place so our answer can only be accurate to the thousands place
2.828
c. 910 x 0.18945=172.3995
The least number of significant figures is 3 so the answer can only have 3 significant figures
172
