Which form of electromagnetic radiation with a relatively high amount of energy is used to sanitize lab goggles?

A sample contains 16 g of a radioactive isotope. how much radioactive

mafiozo [28]

After one half-life, 8 g of radioactive isotope will remain in the sample.

<h3>What is radioactivity?</h3>

The act of producing radiation spontaneously is known as radioactivity. This is accomplished by an unstable atomic nucleus that want to give up some energy in order to move to a more stable form.

The following formula is used to compute the number of half lives elapsed:

$\rm N=\frac{N_0}{2^n} \\\\ N=\frac{16}{2} \\\\ N= 8 \ gram$

Hence,8 gram of radioactive isotope remains in the sample after 1 half-life.

Questions Two cyclists, 42 miles apart, start riding toward each other at the same time. One cycles 2 times as fast as the other. If they meet 2 hours later, what is the speed (in mi/h) of the faster cyclist?

Start of Answer:

-- When they started, they were 42 miles apart. When they met, 2 hours later, they were no miles apart. The distance between them shrank at the rate of 21 miles per hour. Since they rode directly toward each other, the sum of their individual speeds must have been 21 miles per hour.

-- One biker was two times the speed of the other. Slower biker: 1 time. Faster biker: 2 times. Sum of their speeds: 3 times = 21 miles per hour. Each 'time' = 7 miles per hour.

-- Slower cycler = 1 time = 7 mi/hr

Faster cycler = 2 times = 14 mi/hr

A car collides into a concrete wall going 25.0 m/s . It stops in 0.141 seconds and has a change in momentum of 39,400. What is t

vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

Mass of the car is 1576 kg.

Explanation:

Let the mass of the car be $m$ kg.

Given:

Initial velocity of the car is, $u=25\ m/s$

As the car stops, final velocity of the car is, $v=0\ m/s$

Change in momentum is, $\Delta p=39400$

Now, we know that, momentum is given as the product of mass and velocity.

So, change in momentum is given as:

$\Delta p=m(u-v)\\39400=m(25-0)\\39400=25m\\m=\frac{39400}{25}\\m=1576\ kg$

Therefore, the mass of the car is 1576 kg.

A mass m neutron has elastic collision with a mass m'

hoa [83]

Answer:

The neutron loses all of its kinetic energy to nucleus.

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of neutron is 'm' and mass of nucleus is 'm'.

The type of collision is elastic collision.

In elastic collision, there is no loss in kinetic energy of the system. So, total kinetic energy is conserved. Also, the total momentum of the system is conserved.

Here, the nucleus is still. So, its initial kinetic energy is 0. So, the total initial kinetic energy will be equal to kinetic energy of the neutron only.

Now, final kinetic energy of the system will be equal to the initial kinetic energy.

Now, as the nucleus was at rest initially, so the final kinetic energy of the nucleus will be equal to the initial kinetic energy of the neutron.

Thus, all the kinetic energy of the neutron will be transferred to the nucleus and the neutron will come to rest after collision.

Therefore, the neutron loses all of its kinetic energy to nucleus.
