Cesium-137 undergoes beta decay and has a half-life of 30.0 years. How many beta particles are emitted by a 14.0-g sample of ces
Mandarinka [93]

Answer: 0.81\times 10^{16} beta particles

Explanation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

Given mass = 14.0 g

Molar mass = 137 g/mol

\text{Number of moles of cesium}=\frac{14.0g}{137g/mol}=0.102moles

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance weighs equal to its molecular mass and contains avogadro's number 6.023\times 10^{23} of particles.

1 mole of cesium contains atoms =  6.023\times 10^{23}

0.102 moles of cesium contains atoms =  \frac{6.023\times 10^{23}}{1}\times 0.102=0.614\times 10^{23}

The relation of atoms with time for radioactivbe decay is:

N_t=N_0\times \frac{1}{2}^{\frac{t}{t_{\frac{1}{2}}}}

Where N_t =atoms left undecayed

N_0 = initial atoms

t = time taken for decay = 3 minutes

{t_{\frac{1}{2}}} = half life = 30.0 years = 1.577\times 10^7 minutes

The fraction that decays  :  1-(\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{3}{1.577\times 10^7}}=1.32\times 10^{-7}

Amount of particles that decay is  = 0.614\times 10^{23}\times 1.32\times 10^{-7}=0.81\times 10^{16}

Thus 0.81\times 10^{16} beta particles are emitted by a 14.0-g sample of cesium-137 in three minutes.

A large fraction of the ultraviolet (UV) radiation coming from the sun is absorbed by the atmosphere. The main UV absorber in ou
irakobra [83]

Answer:

λ = 3.2 x 10⁻⁷ m = 320 nm

Explanation:

The relationship between the velocity of electromagnetic waves (UV rays) and the their frequency is:

v = fλ

where,

v = c = speed of the electromagnetic waves (UV rays) = speed of light

c = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

f = frequency of the electromagnetic waves (UV rays) = 9.38 x 10¹⁴ Hz

λ = wavelength of the electromagnetic waves (UV rays) = ?

Therefore, substituting the values in the relation, we get:

3 x 10⁸ m/s = (9.38 x 10¹⁴ Hz)(λ)

λ = (3 x 10⁸ m/s)/(9.38 x 10¹⁴ Hz)

<u>λ = 3.2 x 10⁻⁷ m = 320 nm</u>

So, the radiation of <u>320 nm</u> wavelength is absorbed by Ozone.

On Mars, the acceleration due to gravity is 3.77 m / s 2 . 3.77 m/s2. How far would a 15 g 15 g rock fall from rest in 2.5 s 2.5
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

s = 11.78 m

Explanation:

given,

acceleration due to gravity, g = 3.77 m/s²

mass of the rock = 15 g

time = 2.5 s

distance traveled = ?

using equation of motion

s = ut +\dfrac{1}{2}at^2

initial speed = 0 m/s

s = \dfrac{1}{2}at^2

s = \dfrac{1}{2}\times 3.77 \times 2.5^2

s = 11.78 m

distance traveled by the rock is equal to 11.78 m.
