Air pollution level is higher in Location B, because poisonous fumes are produced when coal burns.
<h3><u>Answer</u>;</h3>
1600 years
<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
- Half life is the time taken for a radioactive isotope to decay by half of its original amount.
- We can use the formula; N = O × (1/2)^n ; where N is the new mass, O is the original amount and n is the number of half lives.
- A sample of radium-226 takes 3200 years to decay to 1/4 of its original amount.
Therefore;
<em>1/4 = 1 × (1/2)^n</em>
<em>1/4 = (1/2)^n </em>
<em>n = 2 </em>
Thus; <em>3200 years is equivalent to 2 half lives.</em>
<em>Hence, the half life of radium-226 is 1600 years</em>
Answer:
The K.E is maximum when the child is at the vertical position and the P.E is maximum at the extreme deviated position from the vertical.
Explanation:
- A child is swinging on swing up and down has both kinetic and potential energy.
- The total mechanical energy of the system is conserved throughout the system. At any instant the total mechanical energy is given by,
E = K.E + P.E
- The K.E is maximum when the child is at the vertical position.
- The P.E is maximum at the extreme deviated position from the vertical.
- And when K.E is maximum P.E becomes minimum and vice versa as per the law of conservation of energy.
A wave is basically propagation of disturbances—that is, deviations from a state of rest or equilibrium—from place to place in a regular and organized way. Most familiar are surface waves on water, but both sound and light travel as wavelike disturbances, and the motion of all subatomic particles exhibits wavelike properties.
