The lowest surface temperature in the solar system was recorded on Uranus (-224 degrees Celsius). The temperature of a planet does not only depend on the amount of solar radiation that it receives but also on the amount of heat that it gives off. Because of Uranus' orientation it absorbs little radiation which makes it colder than Neptune although Neptune is further away from the Sun. <span />
Answer:
A 1.0 min
Explanation:
The half-life of a radioisotope is defined as the time it takes for the mass of the isotope to halve compared to the initial value.
From the graph in the problem, we see that the initial mass of the isotope at time t=0 is
The half-life of the isotope is the time it takes for half the mass of the sample to decay, so it is the time t at which the mass will be halved:
We see that this occurs at t = 1.0 min, so the half-life of the isotope is exactly 1.0 min.
Answer:
Vector, in physics, a quantity that has both magnitude and direction. It is typically represented by an arrow whose direction is the same as that of the quantity and whose length is proportional to the quantity's magnitude. Although a vector has magnitude and direction, it does not have position.
