Answer:

(a) A = m/s^3, B = m/s.

(b) dx/dt = m/s.

Explanation:

(a)

x = At^3 + Bt\\m = As^3 + Bs\\m = (\frac{m}{s^3})s^3 + (\frac{m}{s})s

Therefore, the dimension of A is m/s^3, and of B is m/s in order to satisfy the above equation.

(b) \frac{dx}{dt} = 3At^2 + B = 3(\frac{m}{s^3})s^2 + \frac{m}{s} = m/s

This makes sense, because the position function has a unit of 'm'. The derivative of the position function is velocity, and its unit is m/s.

A sample contains radioactive atoms of two types, A and B. Initially there are five times as many A atoms as there are B atoms.
victus00 [196]

Answer:

Explanation:

Initially no of atoms of A = N₀(A)

Initially no of atoms of B = N₀(B)

5 X N₀(A)  = N₀(B)

N = N₀ e^{-\lambda t}

N is no of atoms after time t , λ is decay constant and t is time .

For A

N(A) = N(A)₀ e^{-\lambda_1 t}

For B

N(B) = N(B)₀ e^{-\lambda_2 t}

N(A) = N(B) , for t = 2 h

N(A)₀ e^{-\lambda_1 t} = N(B)₀ e^{-\lambda_2 t}

N(A)₀ e^{-\lambda_1 t} = 5 x N₀(A)  e^{-\lambda_2 t}

e^{-\lambda_1 t} = 5  e^{-\lambda_2 t}

e^{\lambda_2 t} = 5  e^{\lambda_1 t}

half life = .693 / λ

For A

.77 =  .693 / λ₁

λ₁ = .9 h⁻¹

e^{\lambda_2 t} = 5  e^{\lambda_1 t}

Putting t = 2 h , λ₁ = .9 h⁻¹

e^{\lambda_2\times  2} = 5  e^{.9\times  2}

e^{\lambda_2\times  2} = 30.25

2 x λ₂ = 3.41

λ₂ = 1.7047

Half life of B = .693 / 1.7047

= .4065 hours .

= .41 hours .
