Answer:

After 80 years there will be 3 g of element X remaining

Explanation:

Given;

the half life of element X = 20 year

initial mass of element X = 48 g

a) How much is there after 80 years

0 year --------------------------> 48 g

20 years -----------------------> (48g / 2) = 24 g

40 years ------------------------> 12 g

60 years ------------------------> 6 g

80 years --------------------------> 3 g

Therefore, after 80 years there will be 3 g of element X remaining.

Consider a metal bar of initial length L and cross-sectional area A. The Young's modulus of the material of the bar is Y. Find t
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

Spring constant = YA / L

Explanation:

Let F be the force being applied on cross sectional area A of metal bar due to which an extension of ΔL is obtained in the wire of length L then

stress = F / A

strain = ΔL /L

Young's modulus = ( F / A ) / (ΔL /L)

Y = ( F L / A ΔL )

( F / ΔL ) = ( YA / L )

Spring constant = ( F / ΔL )

Spring constant = YA / L

A basketball is thrown horizontally with an initial speed of
storchak [24]

Answer:

1.35 m

Explanation:

Taking down to be positive, given:

Δx = Δy / tan 30.0º

v₀ₓ = 4.50 m/s

v₀ᵧ = 0 m/s

aₓ = 0 m/s²

aᵧ = 10 m/s²

Find: Δy

First, find the time it takes to land in terms of Δy.

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δy = (0 m/s) t + ½ (10 m/s) t²

Δy = 5t²

Next, find Δx in terms of t.

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δx = (4.50 m/s) t + ½ (0 m/s) t²

Δx = 4.50t

Substitute:

Δy = 5 (Δx / 4.50)²

20.25 Δy = 5 (Δx)²

4.05 Δy = (Δx)²

4.05 Δy = (Δy / tan 30.0º)²

4.05 Δy = 3 (Δy)²

1.35 = Δy

The basketball was thrown from an initial height of 1.35 m.

I NEED HELP PLEASE, THANKS! :)
Luden [163]

Answer:

The ball will be attracted to the negatively charged plate. It'll touch and pick up some electrons from the plate so that the ball becomes negatively charged. Immediately the ball is repelled by the negative plate and is attracted to the positive plate. The ball gives up electrons to the positive plate so that it is positively charged and suddenly attracts to the negative plate again, flies over to it and picks up enough electrons to be repulsed by negative plate and again to the positive plate and that continues.
