Which of the following is NOT a good example of a short-term goal?

Using the equation for decay, calculate the amount left of a radioactive sample amount N0 if the decay constant is 0.00125 secon

makkiz [27]

The amount left of a radioactive sample amount N0 if the decay constant is 0.00125 seconds and the time is 180 seconds is 0.7999 N.

The time it takes for half of the original population of radioactive atoms to decay is called the half-life. The relationship between the half-life T1/2 and the decay constant is given by T1/2 = 0.693/λ.

N=N0e−λt
given λ = 0.00125 seconds
t = 180 seconds
Now putting values.
N=N0e−λt = 0.799
N= 0.7999.

A 5 kg fish swimming at 1 m/s swallows an absentminded 500 g fish swimming toward it at a velocity that brings both fish to a ha

AlexFokin [52]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the conservation of momentum. Momentum is defined as the product between mass and velocity of each body. And its conservation as the equality between the initial and final momentum. Mathematically described as

$m_1u_1+m_2u_2 = (m_1+m_2)v_f$

Here

$m_1$ = Mass of big fish

$m_2$ = Mass of small fish

$v_1$ = Velocity of big fish

$v_2$ = Velocity of small fish

$v_F$ = Final Velocity

The big fish eats small fish and the final velocity is zero. Rearrange the equation for the initial velocity of small fish we have

$m_1u_1=-m_2u_2$

$u_2 = -\frac{m_1u_1}{m_2}$

Replacing we have,

$u_2 = -\frac{(5kg)(1m/s)}{0.5kg}$

$u_2 = -10m/s$

The negative sign indicates that the small fish is swimming in the direction opposite to that of the big fish.

Therefore the speed of the small fish is 10m/s

2. A _______ is a device used to measure the intensity of electromagnetic waves, such as light waves and radio waves. A. baromet

kramer

Answer: it is C

The thermistor

Explanation:

Thermistors (temperature-sensitive, or thermal, resistors) are used as temperature-measuring devices and in electrical circuits to compensate for temperature variations of other components. They are also used to measure radio-frequency power and radiant power, such as infrared and visible light.

To measure the intensity of the electromagnetic wave after knowing the frequency, we can calculate it by using fast fourier transformations (FFT).

A sample of chlorine has two naturally occurring isotopes. The isotope Cl-35 (mass 35.0 amu) makes up 75.8% of the sample, and t

irinina [24]

Answer:

$M_{av}=35.521amu$

Explanation:

As in any sample you will have 75.8% of Cl-35 iosotopes and 24.3% of Cl-37 iosotopes you can get the average atomic mass as:

$M_{av}=(35amu*75.8+37amu*24.3)/100=35.521amu$

A 6.0 m section of wire carries a current of 5.2 A from east to west in the earth's magnetic field of 1.0 × 105 T at a location

NNADVOKAT [17]

Well, since you only want direction, ignore the numbers. Use the right hand rule.
Current (pointer finger) points west (left).
Magnetic field (middle finger) points south (towards you).
Force (thumb) then points up (away from the earth)
