<span>Cobalt-60 is undergoing a radioactivity decay.
The formula of the decay is n=N(1/2)</span>∧(T/t).
<span>Where N </span>⇒ original mass of cobalt
<span> n </span>⇒ remaining mass of cobalt after 3 years
T ⇒ decaying period
t ⇒ half-life of cobalt.
So,
0.675 = 1 × 0.5∧(3/t)
log 0.675 = log 0.5∧(3/t)
3/t = log 0.675 ÷log 0.5
3/t= 0.567
t = 3÷0.567
= 5.290626524
the half-life of Cobalt-60 is 5.29 years.

Answer:
48.6°
Explanation:
The forward force, F equals the component of the weight along the slope.
So mgsinθ = ma where a = acceleration and θ = angle between the slope and the horizontal.
So a = gsinθ
Since we are given that a = 75%g = 0.75g,
0.75g = gsinθ
sinθ = 0.75
θ = sin⁻¹(0.75)
= 48.6°
