Not exactly, it is littering. littering makes the place look unpleasing and unclean, but it wont necessarily kill us. now if a factory is dumping their sewage and whatnot in the water, that is considered as industrial pollution because it is killing almost all the wildlife that live in the water, and it can contaminate the water so if you take a swim in it and accidentally swallow some of the water, it can make you sick and can possibly kill you.

If you have 10.0 g of a substance that decays with a half-life of 14 days, then how much will you have after 42 days?

Nat2105 [25]

The formula for the mass that remains:
$m=m_0 \times (\frac{1}{2})^\frac{t}{T}$
m₀ - the initial mass, t - time, T - the half-life

$m_0=10 \ g \\
T=14 \ d \\
t=42 \ d \\ \\
m=10 \times (\frac{1}{2})^\frac{42}{14}=10 \times (\frac{1}{2})^3=10 \times \frac{1}{8}=10 \times 0.125=1.25$

The answer is c. 1.25 g.

Zielflug [23.3K]

There are a few reasons that one teams could win. It depends if the on of the teams has a better grip on the rope or not or maybe one off the teams has more friction between the ground and there shoes. So really it no matter what one of the teams will win.
