Iodine-131 has a half life of 8 days, so half of it is gone every 8 days.
10 grams of iodine-131 is left for 24 days.
At 8 days: 10/2=5 grams left
At 16 days: 5/2=2.5 grams left
At 24 days: 2.5/2=1.25 grams left.
**
Your mistake is that you stopped at 16 days.
Answer:
Production of GMOs is a multistage process which can be summarized as follows:
1. identification of the gene interest;
2. isolation of the gene of interest;
3. amplifying the gene to produce many copies;
4. associating the gene with an appropriate promoter and poly A sequence and insertion into plasmids;
5. multiplying the plasmid in bacteria and recovering the cloned construct for injection;
6. transference of the construct into the recipient tissue, usually fertilized eggs;
7. integration of gene into recipient genome;
8. expression of gene in recipient genome; and
9. inheritance of gene through further generations.
Answer:
2.78 m
Explanation:
At the peak, the velocity is 0.
Given:
a = -1.6 m/s²
v₀ = 2.98 m/s
v = 0 m/s
x₀ = 0 m
Find:
x
v² = v₀² + 2a(x - x₀)
(0 m/s)² = (2.98 m/s)² + 2(-1.6 m/s²) (x - 0 m)
x = 2.775 m
Rounded to 3 sig-figs, the astronaut halloweener reaches a maximum height of 2.78 meters.
Answer:
It says that momentum cannot be created or destroyed. Momentum just passes through systems as opposed to just disappearing in thin air. Momentum can be changed to heat or energy.
