Iodine-131 has a half life of 8 days, so half of it is gone every 8 days.
10 grams of iodine-131 is left for 24 days.
At 8 days: 10/2=5 grams left
At 16 days: 5/2=2.5 grams left
At 24 days: 2.5/2=1.25 grams left.
**
Your mistake is that you stopped at 16 days.
Answer: The force needed is 140.22 Newtons.
Explanation:
The key assumption in this problem is that the acceleration is constant along the path of the barrel bringing the pellet from velocity 0 to 155 m/s. This means the velocity is linearly increasing in time.
The force exerted on the pellet is
F = m a
In order to calculate the acceleration, given the displacement d,
we will need to determine the time t it took for the pellet to make the distance through the barrel of 0.6m. That time can be determined using the average velocity of the pellet while traveling through the barrel. Since the velocity is a linear function of time, as mentioned above, the average is easy to calculate as:
This value can be used to determine the time for the pellet through the barrel:
Finally, we can use the above to calculate the force:
I think this must be if i remember The huge amounts of smoke and ash often seen billowing from active volcanoes generally travel vertically, carried upward by the powerful thermal updrafts volcanoes generate. There are two major types of pyroclastic flows. The first actually comes from the collapse of one of the typical columns of smoke and ash from a volcano. This is the fastest and most energetic type, caused when the weight of the material in the column is too much for the air pressure to support.
The other type of pyroclastic flow is caused by the collapse of a lava dome, the swelling of the earth caused by pressure from magma below. This pyroclastic flow actually has two major components, the visible ash cloud along with an avalanche of hot blocks from the disintegrating dome. The two types of flows leave different types of ash deposits, which geologists can identify long after an eruption.

Is a version of the law of conservation of energy
