Answer:

The change in momentum of the goose during this interaction is 33.334 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

mass of goose, m₁ = 2.0 kg

mass of commercial airliner, m₂ = 160,000 kg

initial velocity of the bird, u₁ = 60 km/hr  = 16.667 m/s

initial velocity of the airliner, u₂ = 870 km/hr = 241.667 m/s

Change in momentum is given as;

ΔP = mv - mu

where;

u is the initial velocity of the bird

v is the final velocity of the bird

Apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum;

Total momentum before collision = Total momentum after collision

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = v(m₁ + m₂)

where;

v is the final velocity of bird and airliner after collision;

(2 x 16.667) + (160,000 x 241.667) = v (2 + 160,000)

38,666,753.334 = 160,002v

v = 38,666,753.334 / 160,002

v = 241.664 m/s

Thus, the final velocity of the bird is negligible compared to final  velocity of the airliner.

ΔP = mv - mu

ΔP = m(v - u)

ΔP = 2(0 - 16.667)

ΔP = -33.334 m/s

The negative sign implies a deceleration of the bird after the impact.

Therefore, the change in momentum of the goose during this interaction is 33.334 m/s

An investigator collects a sample of a radioactive isotope with an activity of 490,000 Bq.48 hours later, the activity is 110,00
Daniel [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is "22.27 hours".

Explanation:

Given that:

Radioactive isotope activity,

= 490,000 Bq

Activity,

= 110,000 Bq

Time,

= 48 hours

As we know,

⇒ A = A_0 e^{- \lambda t}

or,

⇒ \frac{A}{A_0}=e^{-\lambda t}

By taking "ln", we get

⇒ ln \frac{A}{A_0}=- \lambda t

By substituting the values, we get

⇒ -ln \frac{110000}{490000} = -48 \lambda

⇒    -1.4939=-48 \lambda

                 \lambda = 0.031122

As,

⇒ \lambda = \frac{ln_2}{\frac{T}{2} }

then,

⇒ \frac{ln_2}{T_ \frac{1}{2} } =0.031122

⇒ T_\frac{1}{2}=\frac{ln_2}{0.031122}

         =22.27 \ hours
