PLEASE HELP ME If a radioactive substance has an initial mass of 50 grams

Chemistry
1 answer:
Yuri [45]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: 3.125\ g

Explanation:

Given

Initial mass A_o=50\ g

half-life is T_{\frac{1}{2}}=5\ years

At any time the left amount is given by

A=A_o2^{-\dfrac{t}{T_{\frac{1}{2}}}}\\\\\text{Insert the values}\\\\A=50\cdot 2^{-\dfrac{20}{5}}\\\\A=50\cdot 2^{-4}\\\\A=\dfrac{50}{16}\\\\A=3.125\ g

According to de Broglie, which of these objects does not have a wavelength?
polet [3.4K]

Answer: Option D is correct.

Explanation: Equation given by de Broglie is:

\lambda =\frac{h}{mv}

where, \lambda = wavelength of the particle

h = Planck's constant

m = mass of the particle

v = velocity of the particle

In option A, football will have some mass and is moving with a velocity of 25 m/s, hence it will have some wavelength.

In Option B, unladen swallow also have some mass and is moving with a velocity of 38 km/hr, hence it will also have some wavelength.

In Option C, a person has some mass and is running with a velocity of 7 m/hr, hence it will also have some wavelength.

As, the momentum of these particles are large, therefore the wavelength will be of small magnitude and hence, is not observable.

From the above, it is clearly visible that all the options are having some wavelength, so option D is correct.

The volume of the earth is approximately 1.08326x10 to the 12th power km to the 3rd power. How many liters is this
mafiozo [28]

Here, we are required to determine the volume of the earth which is 1.08326 × 10¹² km³ in liters.

<em>The volume of the earth is approximately</em>,

, 1.08326 × 10²⁴ liters

By conversion factors;

  • <em>1dm³ = 1liter</em>
  • However; <em>1km = 10000dm = 10⁴ </em><em>dm</em>
  • Therefore, 1km³ = (10⁴)³ dm³.

Consequently, 1km³ = 10¹²dm³ = 10¹²liters.

The conversion factor from 1km³ to liters is therefore, c.f = 10¹²liters/km³

Therefore, the volume of the earth which is approximately, 1.08326 × 10¹² km³ can be expressed in liters as;

<em>1.08326 × 10¹² km³ × 10¹²liters/km³ </em>

The volume of the earth is approximately,

1.08326 × 10²⁴ liters.
