The half life of uranium- 238 is

4.46 x10^9 years

Explanation

Half life is the time taken for the radioactivity of a isotope to fall to half its original value.

The original mass of uranium-238 is 4.0 mg

Half of original mass of uranium = 4.0 mg /2 = 2.0 mg

since it take 4.46 x 10^ 9 years for the sample to half the half life of uranium -238 = 4.46 x10^9 years

Inside stars in space, the nuclei of hydrogen atoms fuse together to form helium atoms. This represents which form of energy?

mixas84 [53]

Explanation:

When two small nuclei combine together to form a large nuclei then it is known as nuclear fusion.

When nuclei of two hydrogen atoms fuse together then it results in the formation of a helium atom along with the release of lot of energy. This energy is nuclear energy.

This nuclear reaction is as follows.

$^{2}_{1}H + ^{3}_{1}H \rightarrow ^{4}_{2}He + ^{1}_{0}n + Energy$

Thus, we can conclude that nuclear fusion represents nuclear energy.
