Seismic waves are waves generated by Earthquakes.
Answer: 0.333 h
Explanation:
This problem can be solved using the <u>Radioactive Half Life Formula</u>:
(1)
Where:
is the final amount of the material
is the initial amount of the material
is the time elapsed
is the half life of the material (the quantity we are asked to find)
Knowing this, let's substitute the values and find
from (1):
(2)
(3)
Applying natural logarithm in both sides:
(4)
(5)
Clearing
:
(6)
Finally:
This is the half-life of the Bismuth-218 isotope
Answer:
The formula for speed is speed=<u>d</u><u>i</u><u>s</u><u>t</u><u>a</u><u>n</u><u>c</u><u>e</u>
time
Explanation:
to work out what the units are for speed,you need to know the units for distance and time.In this example,distance is in metres(m) and time is in seconds (s) , so the units for speed is metre per second (m/s).
Answer:
The frequency increases by a factor of 3.
Explanation:
The relation between speed, wavelength and frequency of a wave is given by :

or

A wave travels at a constant speed. If the wavelength is reduced by a factor of 3, it would mean that the frequency increases by a factor of 3 because there is an inverse relationship between wavelength and frequency.
