Answer:

Option B. 32 g

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Original amount (N₀) = 128 g

Half-life (t½) = 2.25 billion years

Number of half-lives (n) = 2

Amount remaining (N) =?

The amount of 128 gram of Radium-226 that will remain after 2 half-lives has elapsed can be obtained as followb

N = 1/2ⁿ × N₀

N = 1/2² × 128

N = 1/4 × 128

N = 0.25 × 128

N = 32 g

Therefore, 32g of the sample will remain.

Answer:

this description is valid for mediadle displacement, bone is an acceptable description

Explanation:

The description of a person's position must be done with a position vector. These vectors must have magnitude, a given direction and a starting point.

In the description this has a starting point corner NO of pine and 675.

Each displacement occurs with respect to the previous one, indicating the magnitude of the displacement and its direction.

After analyzing  this description is valid for mediadle displacement, bone is an acceptable description

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

N_{2}=20 turns

Explanation:

The given case is a step down transformer as we need to reduce 120 V to 6 V.

number of turns on primary coil N_{P}= 400

current delivered by  secondary coil  I_{S}= 500 mA

output voltage = 6 V (rms)

we know that

I_{p}=\frac{V_{out}}{V_{in}\times I_{s}}

putting values we get

I_{p}=\frac{6}{120\times 0.5}

I_{p}= 0.1 A

to calculate number of turns in secondary

\frac{N_{2}}{400} =\frac{6}{120}

therefore, N_{2}=20 turns

Answer:

B. As the temperature increases, the kinetic energy of the molecules increases.

Explanation:

When the temperature of an object increases, the kinetic energy of its particles increases, so the thermal energy of an object increases as its temperature increases.
