I'm not sure what your question is. But, the half life is the amount of time required for half the material to decay. For U238 this is 4.5 billion years, whilst for Fr-223 (Francium) its about 22 minutes. To calculate the time for something to decay you need to use the equation:
Mass (after time t) = Mass (initial) * (0.5)^(time/half life)
Hope this helps

Determine if the data are qualitative, quantitative, or neither. Zinc is a silver-gray metal. Chlorine has a density of 3.2 g/L.
AysviL [449]

Qualitative data gives the information of quality which can not be measured in numbers. For example: Color of eyes, softness of skin.

Quantitative data is information of quantity that can be represented in numbers. For example length and mass of any object.

Zinc is a silver-gray metal is a qualitative data, here silver gray color is quality of zinc metal which can not be measured in numbers.

Chlorine has a density of 3.2 g/L is a quantitative data. The value of density can be compared with other elements by comparing the numbers.

Gallium is not found in nature is neither qualitative nor quantitative.

Nitrogen has a melting point of –210.00 °C is a quantitative data because this is expressed in numbers.

Aluminum is a solid is a qualitative data because it tells about the state of element which can not be measured in numbers.

Con lắc lò xo có độ cứng k = 100N/m được gắn vật có khối lượng m=0.1kg, kéo vật ra khỏi vị trí cân bằng 1 đoạn 5cm rồi buông tay
Delvig [45]

Answer:

The maximum velocity is 1.58 m/s.

Explanation:

A spring pendulum with stiffness k = 100N/m is attached to an object of mass m = 0.1kg, pulls the object out of the equilibrium position by a distance of 5cm, and then lets go of the hand for the oscillating object. Calculate the achievable vmax.

Spring constant, K = 100 N/m

mass, m = 0.1 kg

Amplitude, A = 5 cm = 0.05 m

Let the angular frequency is w.

w = \sqrt{K}{m}\\\\w = \sqrt{100}{0.1}\\\\w = 31.6 rad/s

The maximum velocity is

v_{max} = w A\\\\v_{max} = 31.6\times 0.05 = 1.58 m/s
