Answer:
A half-life is the time required for one half of the nuclei in a radio- active isotope to decay.
Explanation:
A radio-active isotope is an isotope which undergoes radioactive decay.
Radioactive decay is a spontaneous process in which the nucleus of an atom changes its state (turning into a different nucleus, or de-exciting), emitting radiation, which can be of three different types: alpha, beta or gamma.
The half-life of a radio-active isotope is the time required for half of the nuclei of the initial sample to decay.
The law of radio-active decay can be expressed as follows:
where
N(t) is the number of undecayed nuclei left at time t
N0 is the initial number of nuclei
t is the time
is the half-life
We see that when (that means, when 1 half-life has passed), the number of undecayed nuclei left is
So, half of the initial nuclei.
Answer:
The answer to your question is 636.6 ft
Explanation:
Data
base = 425 ft
angle = 39°
See the picture below
1.- Divide the triangle to get two right triangles.
Now the superior angle will measure 19.5° and the opposite side will measure 212.5 ft
2.- Use the trigonometric function sine to find the hypotenuse
sin 19.5 = 212.5/hyp
solve for hyp
hyp = 212.5 / sin 19.5
Result
hyp = 212.5/ 0.333
hyp = 636.6 ft
