Answer:
(a)
(b) 15 hours
Explanation:
half life, T = 12 hours
No = 19 g
(a) Let N be the amount remaining after time t.
Let λ be the decay constant.
The equation of radioactivity used here is given by
(b) N = 8 gram
Substitute the values in above equation
λ = 0.0577 per hour
So,
Take natural log on both the sides
- 0.0577 t = - 0.865
t = 15 hours
Answer:
4. both blocks will both have the same amount of kinetic energy.
Explanation:
When the blocks are released free from the compression force, the spring exerts equal and opposite force on each block but the block with heavier (double) mass will attain slower ( half ) speed as compared to the lighter block according to the law of inertia. This works in synchronization to energy conservation.
Spring force is given as:
where: length of compression in the spring
<u>We know kinetic energy is given by:</u>
Hence the kinetic energy of both the blocks is equal when they are released to move free.
