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:
c
Explanation:
kinetic energy is energy an object has due to its movement. for instance, if someone was riding down a hill, when the motion of the bike begins to decrease so does the kinetic energy
Answer:
Please see answer in explanation
Explanation:
1. Since each molecule has three kinetic degrees of freedom (can move in three independent directions), the gas must have 3N DoFs.
2. Each molecule has the three kinetic degrees of freedom the monotonic atom has moving without rotating but it can also spin. There are three axes for it to spin around so we would expect three rotational degrees of freedom, but as were as above, the one about the diatomic molecule's axis doesn't count because of quantum. So we have two rotational DoFs and three kinetic, for a total of 5 per molecules. So the gas will have 5N DoFs.
3.When a spring vibrates it has two DoFs, its KE and its PE, so adding 1 vibration adds 2 DoFs per molecule, giving 7 per molecule and giving thegas 7N DoFs.
