<h3>Answer:</h3>

2.5 mg

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>We are given</u>;

  • Original mass of I-131 is 40.0 mg
  • Half life of I-131 is 8 days
  • Number of days 32 days

We are required to determine the mass that will remain;

  • Using the formula;

N = N₀ × 0.5^n

where, N is the remaining mass, N₀ is the original mass, and n is the number of half lives.

Therefore;

n = time ÷ half life

   = 32 days ÷ 8 days

  = 4

Therefore;

Remaining mass = 40.0 mg × 0.5^4

                            = 2.5 mg

Hence, the remaining mass of I-131 after 32 days is 2.5 mg

A light string is wrapped around the edge of the smaller disk, and a 1.50 kg block is suspended from the free end of the string.
LenaWriter [7]

Answer: 7.41 m/s

Explanation: By using the law of of energy, kinetic energy of the brick as it falls equals the potential energy before falling.

Kinetic energy = mv²/2, potential energy = mgh

mv²/2 = mgh

v²/2 = gh

v² = 2gh

v = √2gh

Where g = 9.8 m/s², h = 2.80m

v = √2×9.8×2.8 = 7.41 m/s

Show how the alternative definition of power, found in your book, can be derived by substituting the definitions of work and spe
Harman [31]

Let us consider body moves a distance S due to the force F.

Hence the work by the body W = FS

If the force is not along the direction of displacement,then the work by a body for travelling a distance S will be -

                                       W=[ Fcos\theta]*S  where    Fcos\theta is the component of the force along the direction of displacement.

                                  Hence\ W= FScos\theta

                                                        = F.S

As per the question the power P is given as -

                                                  P=\frac{W}{\delta t}

                                                         =\frac{F.S}{\delta t}

                                                         = F.\frac{S}{\delta t}

                                                         = \ F.V

Hence alternative definition of power P = F.V

A train pulls away from a station with a constant acceleration of 0.42 m/s2. A passenger arrives at a point next to the track 6.
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

2.69 m/s

Explanation:

Hi!

First lets find the position of the train as a function of time as seen by the passenger when he arrives to the train station. For this state, the train is at a position x0 given by:

x0 = (1/2)(0.42m/s^2)*(6.4s)^2 = 8.6016 m

So, the position as a function of time is:

xT(t)=(1/2)(0.42m/s^2)t^2 + x0 = (1/2)(0.42m/s^2)t^2 + 8.6016 m

Now, if the passanger is moving at a constant velocity of V, his position as a fucntion of time is given by:

xP(t)=V*t

In order for the passenger to catch the train

xP(t)=xT(t)

(1/2)(0.42m/s^2)t^2 + 8.6016 m = V*t

To solve this equation for t we make use of the quadratic formula, which has real solutions whenever its determinat is grater than zero:

0≤ b^2-4*a*c = V^2 - 4 * ((1/2)(0.42m/s^2)) * 8.6016 m =V^2 - 7.22534(m/s)^2

This equation give us the minimum velocity the passenger must have in order to catch the train:

V^2 - 7.22534(m/s)^2 = 0

V^2 = 7.22534(m/s)^2

V = 2.6879 m/s
