The complete queston is The amount of a radioactive element A at time t is given by the formula
A(t) = A₀e^kt
Answer:  A(t) =N e^( -1.2 X 10^-4t)
Explanation:
Given 
 Half life =  5730 years. 
A(t) =A₀e ^kt
 such that
A₀/ 2 =A₀e ^kt
 Dividing both sides by A₀
 1/2 = e ^kt
 1/2 = e ^k(5730)
 1/2 = e^5730K
 In 1/2 =  5730K
k = 1n1/2 / 5730
k = 1n0.5 / 5730
K= -0.00012 = 1.2 X 10^-4
 So that expressing   N in terms of t, we have 
A(t) =A₀e ^kt
 A₀ = N
A(t) =N e^ -1.2 X 10^-4t
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
 p = 1.16 10⁻¹⁴ C m     and  ΔU = 2.7 10 -11 J
Explanation:
The dipole moment of a dipole is the product of charges by distance
                         p = 2 a q
With 2a the distance between the charges and the magnitude of the charges
                         p = 1.7 10⁻⁹ 6.8 10⁻⁶
                         p = 1.16 10⁻¹⁴ C m
  
The potential energie dipole  is described by the expression
                        U = - p E cos θ
Where θ is the angle between the dipole and the electric field, the zero value of the potential energy is located for when the dipole is perpendicular to the electric field line
Orientation parallel to the field
                       θ = 0º 
                       U = 1.16 10⁻¹⁴ 1160 cos 0
                       U1 = 1.35 10⁻¹¹ J
Antiparallel orientation
                        θ = 180º 
                       cos 180 = -1
                       U2 = -1.35 10⁻¹¹ J
The difference in energy between these two configurations is the subtraction of the energies
                          ΔU = | U1 -U2 |
                          ΔU = 1.35 10-11 - (-1.35 10-11)
                          ΔU = 2.7 10 -11 J

I like playing basketball. So I'm the object in motion. Until an unbalanced force comes and hits me I fall and stay at rest.
