You would solve for d, using the equation 28.26= d, since 28.26 is the circumference.
You would end up dividing on both sides, thus getting the exact answer of 28.26/ as the diameter. If you need an estimated answer, then use a calculator, enter the exact diameter, and round as needed.
(If there's anything wrong/unclear in my explanation then please tell me as this is my first time doing this)
The amount of substance after t years is given by an equation in the following format:
In which A(0) is the initial amount and r is the decay rate, as a decimal.
Co-60 has a half life of 5.3 years.
This means that:
We use this to find r. So
So
If a pellet that has been in storage for 26.5 years contains 14.5g of Co-60, how much of this radioisotope was present when the pellet was put in storage?
