Chemistry

Usimov [2.4K]3 years ago

Answer:

4.375 milligram

Explanation:

Applying,

A = A'(2ᵃ/ⁿ)............. Equation 1

Where A = original amount of actinium-228, A' = amount of actinium-228 left after decay, a = Total time, n = half life

make A' the subject of the equation

A' = A/(2ᵃ/ⁿ)........... Equation 2

From the question,

Given: A = 70 milligram, a = 24.52 hours, n = 6.13 hours

Substitute these values into equation 2

A' = 70/(2²⁴°⁵²/⁶°¹³)

A' = 70/(2⁴)

A' = 70/16

A' = 4.375 milligram

Ava threw a hamster at her sister the other day she used 12N of force to accelerate the hamster at 8m/s2.what was the mass of th
xenn [34]

<u>We are given:</u>

The force applied on the poor hamster (F) = 12 N

Acceleration of the poor Hamster (a) = 8 m/s²

<u>Solving for the mass of the Poor Hamster:</u>

From newton's second equation of motion, we know that:

F = ma

<em>replacing the given values</em>

12 = 8 * m

m = 12/8 kg

m = 3/2 kg

The poor Hamster weighs 3/2 kg
