CALCULATING HALF LIFE

Physics
1 answer:
olga2289 [7]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

N = 500Bq

Explanation:

No = 2000Bq

Time (T) = 10years

T½ = 5 years.

N = ?

T½ = In2 / λ

T½ = 0.693 / λ

λ = 0.693 / t½

λ = 0.693 / 5

λ = 0.1386

The ratio between the two activities is

(N / No) = e⁻^λt

N = No * e⁻^λt

N = 2000 * e^⁻⁰.¹³⁸⁶ * ¹⁰

N = 2000 * e⁻¹.³⁸⁶

N = 2000 * 0.25

N = 500Bq

The activity of Co-60 after 10 years would be 500Bq

Give two examples from the fossil record that show evidence of change in the complexity of organisms over time.
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

Fossils tell us when organisms lived, as well as provide evidence for the progression and evolution of life on earth over millions of years.

Explanation:

As the world changes, plants and animals change with it. Aside from a few living fossils, the species we see today are very different from species that lived in the past. Thus, the fossil record can be used to show that organisms changed to meet new conditions. ... This is the result of evolution of species over time.

A well is being dug. A 4.5-kg bucket is filled with 28.0 kg of dirt and pulled vertically upward at a constant speed through a d
andreyandreev [35.5K]

The work done on the filled bucket in raising out of the hole is 2, 925 Joules

<h3>How to determine the work done</h3>

Using the formula:

Work done = force * distance

Note that force = mass * acceleration

F = mg + ma

F = 4. 5 * 10 + 28 * 10

F = 45 + 280

F = 325 Newton

Distance = 9m

Substitute into formula

Work done = 325 * 9

Work done = 2, 925 Joules

Therefore, the work done is 2, 925 Joules

A photon ionizes a hydrogen atom from the ground state. The liberated electron 11. recombines with a proton into the first excit
anygoal [31]

Answer:

a) 23.2 e V

b) energy of the original photon is 36.8 eV

Explanation:

given,

energy at ground level = -13.6 e V

energy at first exited state = - 3.4 e V

A photon of energy ionized from ground state and electron of energy K is released.

h ν₁ - 13.6 = K

K combine with photon in first exited state giving out photon of energy

h\nu_2 =\dfrac{hc}{\lambda}=\dfrac{12400}{466}

            = 26.6 e V

h c = 6.626 ×  10⁻³⁴ ×  3  × 10⁸  = 12400 e V A°

K + ( 3.4 ) = 26.6 e V

a) energy of free electron

K = 26.6 - 3.4 = 23.2 e V

b) energy of the original photon

h ν₁ - 13.6 = K

h ν₁  = 23.2 + 13.6

       = 36.8 e V

energy of the original photon is 36.8 eV
