Answer:

263.1 is exactly three half-life, so the remaining portion is (1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2) of the original sample. That's 1/8 which is 12.5%

A textbook measures 250 mm long, 225 mm wide and 50 mm thick. What is the volume of this book in mm3? What is the volume of this

Dvinal [7]

Answer:

2.81 × 10⁶ mm³

2.81 × 10⁻³ m³

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Length (l): 250 mm

Width (w): 225 mm

Thickness (t): 50 mm

Step 2: Calculate the volume of the textbook

The book is a cuboid so we can find its volume (V) using the following expression.

V = l × w × t = 250 mm × 225 mm × 50 mm = 2.81 × 10⁶ mm³

Step 3: Convert the volume to cubic meters

We will use the relationship 1 m³ = 10⁹ mm³.

2.81 × 10⁶ mm³ × 1 m³ / 10⁹ mm³ = 2.81 × 10⁻³ m³

In an investigation, explain the best way to use variables in an experiment

vazorg [7]

Answer:

An experiment is an investigation in which a hypothesis is scientifically tested. In an experiment, an independent variable (the cause) is manipulated and the dependent variable (the effect) is measured; any extraneous variables are controlled. An advantage is that experiments should be objective.
