Mean: the average. you have to add the values of the numbers and then divide by the amount of numbers there are. a common mistake to avoid is forgetting to divide the numbers at the end or subtracting them instead of adding.
mean: the middle number. you would first need to order the numbers from least to greatest. a common mistake to avoid is finding the middle number before ordering it from least to greatest
these two can also be commonly mistaken for one another because of the similar spelling.
Answer:
a) a0 was 46.2 grams
b) It will take 259 years
c) The fossil is 1845 years old
Explanation:
<em>An unknown radioactive substance has a half-life of 3.20hours . If 46.2g of the substance is currently present, what mass A0 was present 8.00 hours ago?</em>
A = A0 * (1/2)^(t/h)
⇒ with A = the final amount = 46.2 grams
⇒ A0 = the original amount
⇒ t = time = 8 hours
⇒ h = half-life time = 3.2 hours
46.2 = Ao*(1/2)^(8/3.2)
Ao = 261.35 grams
<em>Americium-241 is used in some smoke detectors. It is an alpha emitter with a half-life of 432 years. How long will it take in years for 34.0% of an Am-241 sample to decay?</em>
t = (ln(0.66))-0.693) * 432 = 259 years
It will take 259 years
<em>A fossil was analyzed and determined to have a carbon-14 level that is 80% that of living organisms. The half-life of C-14 is 5730 years. How old is the fossil?</em>
<em />
t = (ln(0.80))-0.693) * 5730 = 1845
The fossil is 1845 years old

Explanation:
Crystallography. an arrangement in space of isolated points (lattice points ) in a regular pattern, showing the positions of atoms, molecules, or ions in the structure of a crystal.
If an atom experiences sufficient thermal activation, it can move to a neighboring lattice position.4 If the vibration frequency of the atom is v and the atom has Z nearest neighbors, the total number of jump attempts is vZ. However, only a small fraction of the attempts will be successful, with a probability depending on the ratio between the necessary activation energy for a single jump QD and the thermal activation kBT. The effective jump frequency ΓD is then
(5.6)
With each successful jump, the atom travels one atomic distance λ and the total traveling distance in unit time is thus ΓDλ. Substituting the jump frequency ΓD into the expression for the root mean square displacement of a random walker [equation (5.5)] and using the spatial coordinate r leads to
