A roller coaster takes energy to make the first rise, but then it should be able to run the course of the track without any inpu

t of energy. This, however, is not true. Energy continues to be needed. This is because some of the energy is converted to sound energy, and some is given off as heat energy. This is a good example of which law?
the first law of thermodynamics
the second law of thermodynamics
the third law of thermodynamics
the zeroth law of thermodynamics

A tree falls in a forest. How many years must pass before the 14C activity in 1.03 g of the tree's carbon drops to 1.02 decay pe
Illusion [34]

Answer:

t = 5.59x10⁴ y

Explanation:

To calculate the time for the ¹⁴C drops to 1.02 decays/h, we need to use the next equation:

A_{t} = A_{0}\cdot e^{- \lambda t}    (1)

<em>where A_{t}: is the number of decays with time, A₀: is the initial activity, λ: is the decay constant and t: is the time.</em>

To find A₀ we can use the following equation:  

A_{0} = N_{0} \lambda   (2)

<em>where N₀: is the initial number of particles of ¹⁴C in the 1.03g of the trees carbon </em>

From equation (2), the N₀ of the ¹⁴C in the trees carbon can be calculated as follows:        

N_{0} = \frac{m_{T} \cdot N_{A} \cdot abundance}{m_{^{12}C}}

<em>where m_{T}: is the tree's carbon mass, N_{A}: is the Avogadro's number and m_{^{12}C}: is the ¹²C mass.  </em>

N_{0} = \frac{1.03g \cdot 6.022\cdot 10^{23} \cdot 1.3\cdot 10^{-12}}{12} = 6.72 \cdot 10^{10} atoms ^{14}C    

Similarly, from equation (2) λ is:

\lambda = \frac{Ln(2)}{t_{1/2}}

<em>where t 1/2: is the half-life of ¹⁴C= 5700 years </em>

\lambda = \frac{Ln(2)}{5700y} = 1.22 \cdot 10^{-4} y^{-1}

So, the initial activity A₀ is:  

A_{0} = 6.72 \cdot 10^{10} \cdot 1.22 \cdot 10^{-4} = 8.20 \cdot 10^{6} decays/y    

Finally, we can calculate the time from equation (1):

t = - \frac{Ln(A_{t}/A_{0})}{\lambda} = - \frac {Ln(\frac{1.02decays \cdot 24h \cdot 365d}{1h\cdot 1d \cdot 1y \cdot 8.20 \cdot 10^{6} decays/y})}{1.22 \cdot 10^{-4} y^{-1}} = 5.59 \cdot 10^{4} y              

I hope it helps you!

An electrician wraps rubber electrical tape around a copper wire. Since rubber is an insulator, which statement best explains th
yuradex [85]

A) Rubber stops charges from flowing. This protects people by stopping electricity from flowing.

Explanation:

The statement that best describes the point of wrapping rubber around the copper wire is that the rubber stops charges from flowing. This prevents people from getting electrical shocks by stopping the flow  of electricity.

  • A rubber is an insulator.
  • Insulators are substances that prevents the flow of electricity.
  • The lack free mobile electrons or ions that makes them conductors.
  • When they are wrapped round a conductor such as copper wire, they will halt the flow of charges.
  • Copper is a conductor of both heat and electricity. It has free mobile electrons.

A certain car traveling in a straight line path has a velocity of +10.0 m/s at some instant. after 3.00 s, its velocity is +6.00
makvit [3.9K]
The formula is:
v = v o + a t
6 = 10 + 3 * a
3 a = 10 - 6
a = 4 : 3
a =  - 1.33 m/s² ( because the car slows down )
Answer: The average acceleration of the car is - 1.33 m/s²
