Hello!

Some benefits of using nitrous oxide in a vehicle are as follows:

* N2O produces a larger combustion and thus fuels the car for longer periods of time.

* N2O is comparatively inexpensive for what its worth.

* N2O, under certain circumstances, is safer than other alternative sources of fuel because it's not flammable.

Some disadvantages of using nitrous oxide in a vehicle are as follows:

* Since N2O is a gas, it takes up a lot of empty space and can't be stored in large amounts.

* It can occasionally blow up, even though it almost never does.

I hope I helped! :-)

What is the half-life of an isotope that decays to 6.25% of its original activity in 18.9 hours?

inessss [21]

Radioactive material obeys 1st order decay kinetics,
For 1st order reaction, we have
k = $\frac{2.303}{t}Xlog \frac{\text{initial conc.}}{\text{final conc.}}$
where, k = rate constant of reaction

Given: Initial conc. 100, Final conc. = 6.25, t = 18.9 hours

∴ k = $\frac{2.303}{18.9} X log \frac{100}{6.25}$ = 0.1467 hours^(-1)

Now, for 1st order reactions: half life = $\frac{0.693}{k} = \frac{0.693}{0.1467}$ = 4.723 hours.

Lucas rubs a plastic ruler on his sweater. He waves the ruler above a pile of shredded paper and notices that the pieces of pape

telo118 [61]

Answer:

Explanation:

Firstly it is pertinent to know that, Electric force are due to the movement of electrons that is due to its gain and loss. This phenomenon is based on static electricity.

When the glass ruler is rubbed over the woolen sweater, the wool gets positively charged and the ruler gains electron to form negative charge.

Now if this charged is not earthed, the negative charged ruler attracts the uncharged bits of paper, as a result of which the paper gets attached to the ruler.
