Conduction is heat tranfer through physical contact. Hope this helps. :)
Using the exponential decay model; we calculate "k"
We know that "A" is half of A0
A = A0 e^(k× 5050)
A/A0 = e^(5050k)
0.5 = e^(5055k)
In (0.5) = 5055k
-0.69315 = 5055k
k = -0.0001371
To calculate how long it will take to decay to 86% of the original mass
0.86 = e^(-0.0001371t)
In (0.86) = -0.0001371t
-0.150823 = -0.0001371 t
t = 1100 hours
<span>Biotic and Abiotic Factors Form Ecosystems. In a healthy forest community, interacting populations might include birds eating insects, squirrels
eating nuts from trees, mushrooms growing from decaying leaves or bark,
and raccoons fishing in a stream. In addition to how individuals in a
population interact with each other, let me know if it helps :)</span>
