Answer: (E) 300 bq
Explanation:
Half life is the amount of time taken by a radioactive material to decay to half of its original value.
Radioactive decay process is a type of process in which a less stable nuclei decomposes to a stable nuclei by releasing some radiations or particles like alpha, beta particles or gamma-radiations. The radioactive decay follows first order kinetics.
Half life is represented by 
Half life of Thallium-208 = 3.053 min
Thus after 9 minutes , three half lives will be passed, after ist half life, the activity would be reduced to half of original i.e. 
, after second half life, the activity would be reduced to half of 1200 i.e. 
, and after third half life, the activity would be reduced to half of 600 i.e. 
,
Thus the activity 9 minutes later is 300 bq.
The half-life equation is written as:
An = Aoe^-kt
We use this equation for the solution. We do as follows:
5.5 = 176e^-k(165)
k = 0.02
<span>What is the half-life of the goo in minutes?
</span>
0.5 = e^-0.02t
t = 34.66 minutes <----HALF-LIFE
Find a formula for G(t) , the amount of goo remaining at time t.G(t)=?
G(t) = 176e^-0.02t
How many grams of goo will remain after 50 minutes?
G(t) = 176e^-0.02(50) = 64.75 g
The answer would be B.
U-238 has a n to p ration of 1.6:1. 146 neutrons and 92 protons.
It is actually the most commonly used isotope is reactors.
C-14 is also a radioactive isotope with 8 neutrons and 6 protons.
The usual and ideal n to p ratio is 1:1 such as C-12 or Mg-24
I don’t get it. What is the question asking?
ANSWER: Eardrum
EXPLANATION:
The vibrations from the eardrum set the ossicles into motion. The ossicles are actually tiny bones — the smallest in the human body. The three bones are named after their shapes: the malleus (hammer), incus (anvil) and stapes (stirrup). The ossicles further amplify the sound.
