A fan is designed to last for a certain time before it will have to be replaced (planned obsolescence). The fan only has one spe
ed (at a maximum of 700 rpm), and it reaches the speed in 4.0 s (starting from rest). It takes the fan 11.0 s for the blade to stop once it is turned off. The manufacturer specifies that the fan will operate up to 1 billion rotations. Andre lives in a hot climate, works outside of the home from approximately 8:00 am to 5:00 pm, Monday through Friday, does not own an air conditioner, and can't sleep with the fan running. Estimate how many hot days ????hot Andre will be able to use the fan, rounded to the nearest day. ????hot= days

Answer:
29.38 seconds
Explanation:
Half life, T = 22.07 s
No = 1293
Let N be the number of atoms left after time t
N = 1293 - 779 = 514
By the use of law of radioactivity
Where, λ is the decay constant
λ = 0.6931 / T = 0.6931 / 22.07 = 0.0314 decay per second
so,
take natural log on both the sides
0.9225 = 0.0314 t
t = 29.38 seconds
