How many half-lifes is 49.2 years ?

(49.2 years) / (12.3 years per half-life)  =  4 half-lifes.

In 4 half-lifes, (1/2) · (1/2) · (1/2) · (1/2) of the original sample remains.

That's (1/2⁴) or (1/16) of the original.

(1/16) of 48.0 mg  =  <em>3 mg</em> .

=======================

Step-by-step:

== Start with 48 mg .

== After one half-life, 24 mg remains.

== Then, after the second half-life, 12 mg remains.

== Then, after the third half-life, 6 mg remains.

== Then, after the fourth half-life, <em>3 mg</em> remains.

Answer:

Explanation:

The formula for this, the easy one, is

N=N_0(\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{t}{H} where No is the initial amount of the element, t is the time in years, and H is the half life. Filling in:

N=48.0(\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{49.2}{12.3} and simplifying a bit:

N=48.0(.5)^4 and

N = 48.0(.0625) so

N = 3 mg left after 12.3 years

max2010maxim [7]

Explanation:

Watts are defined as 1 Watt = 1 Joule per second (1W = 1 J/s)

which means that 1 kW = 1000 J/s. A Watt is the amount of energy (in Joules) that an electrical device (such as a light) is burning per second that it's running.
