Answer:
option (c) is correct
Explanation:
Half life of a substance is the time in which the element becomes half of is initial value.
half life, T = 8 days
Amount remaining, N = 10 % of original value
Let the original value is No.
N = 10% of No
N = 0.1 No
Let the time taken is t and the decay constant is λ.
The relation between the decay constant and the half life is given by
Us the equation of radioactivity
Taking natural log on both the sides, we get
0.08664 t = 2.303
t = 26.6 days
Answer:
a) The average velocity is v = (60 km/h ; 0)
b) The average speed is 60 km/h
Explanation:
The velocity is a vector that has a magnitude and direction. The average speed is the distance traveled over time without taking into account the direction of the motion.
a)The average velocity is calculated as the displacement over time:
v = Δx/Δt
where
v = velocity
Δx = final position - initial position = traveled distance relative to the center of the reference system.
Δt = final time - initial time (initial time is usually = 0)
We know that the displacement is 84 km but we do not know the time. It can be calculated from the two parts of the trip.
In part 1:
v = 45 km/h = 42 km / t
t = 0.93 h
In part 2:
v = 90 km/h = 42 km / t
t = 42 km / 90 km/h
t = 0.47 h
The time of travel is 0.47 h + 0.93 h = 1.4 h
The average velocity will be:
v = 84 km / 1.4 h = 60 km/h
Expressed as a vector in a 2-dimension plane:
v = (60 km/h; 0)
b) The average speed is calculated as the distance traveled over time. Note that in this case, the distance is equal to the displacement since the direction of the motion is always in one direction. But if the direction of the second part of the trip would have been the opposite to the direction of the first part, the displacement would have been 0 (final position - initial position = 0, because final position = initial position), then, the average velocity would have been 0. In change, the average speed would have been the distance traveled (84 km, 42 km in one direction and 42 km in the other) over time.
Then:
average speed = 84 km / 1.4 h = 60 km/h
c) see attached figure.
Answer:
Explanation:
a)Magnitude =
84=
x= +50.67 or -50.67 units
b) We are given that the resultant is entirely in the -ve x direction which means that the y-component of the resultant is 0; It means that the y-component of the next vector = -ve of the y component of the initial vector i.e 67.
To make the magnitude 80 units in the negative x direction where the y component is 0, the x component must be -130.67(-50.67 - 80) as the x component is + 50.67units.
Magnitude = = 146.85 units
c) The direction vector = 67/146.85 i - 130.67/146.85 j where i corresponds to the vector in y direction and j corresponds to the vector in x direction. Or this vector is at an angle of 180 - i.e 152.85 degrees from the +ve x-axis.
