Answer:Half-life is the amount of time it takes for the initial mass of the isotope to decompose, by half, into other lighter atoms.
Explanation:Different radioactive isotopes have different half-lives. For example, the element technetium-99m has a half life of 6 hours. This means that is 100 kg of the element is left to decay, in 6 hours, 50kg of the mass will have changed into other elements/atoms. The half-life of uranium-238 is 4.5 billion years while that of polonium-216 is only 0.145 seconds.
Answer:
164.87 J
Explanation:
From the question,
Work done (W) = mghcosθ........................ Equation 1
Where m = mass of the box, h = height, g = acceleration due to gravity, θ = angle to the vertical
Given: m = 25 kg, h = 2.6 meters, θ = 75°.
Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²
Substitute these value into equation 1
W = 25×9.8×2.6×cos75°
W = 164.87 J.
Ok, so you've got to figure out a force F and you have the speed in which the boxer punches on determinate time and the mass of the sheet of paper.
So based on the formula that says that the Force is equal to the mass multiplied by the acceleration => F=ma.
You look at it and see that you only have mass which is measured on KG so there is no problem.
then you have the acceleration which is measured on meters and is defined by: a = Δv/Δt
So now you can replace the velocity and the time you have there
⇒ a 25m/s / 0.05s
you have computing that ⇒ 50m because the seconds were cancelled out.
and then you plug the meters into the force equation.
F=(0.005kg)(50)
F=0.25N
so the boxer will have a force of 0.25 Newton's.
