Answer:
A) 277 million years
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, decay of U-238 is first order reaction. (since most of the nuclear decays are first order).
so, the equation t = × ln(
)
where, t = time from start of reaction
k = reaction constant
A(0) = initial concentration; A = present concentration.
⇒ 4.5 billion = 4500 million years = × ln2.
Now, given 95.82% of parent U-238 isotope is left.
⇒ t = × ln(
)
t = × ln(
)
⇒ t ≅ 277 million years.
Answer:
a) CD = 41 m
b) 77.32°
c) 1380 square metres
Step-by-step explanation:
We can divide the trapezium as shown in the diagram below.
a) To find CD, we use Pythagoras Rule:
b) To find <BCD, we use trigonometric function SOHCAHTOA:
sin(BCD) = opp / hyp
sin(BCD) = 40 / 41
sin(BCD) = 0.9756
=> <BCD = 77.32°
c) The area of a trapezium is given as:
A = 1/2 (a + b) * h
where h = height = 40 m
a = top length = 30 m
b = bottom length = 39 m
A = 1/2 * (30 + 39) * 40
A = 1/2 * 69 * 40
A = 1380 square metres
