Half-life is defined as the quantity to reduce to half of its initial value.
Explanation:
The term half-life is generally used in nuclear physics which describes how long a stable atom can survive a radioactive decay or how quickly an unstable stable atom can undergo radioactive decay. Half-life is a constant and does not have any units.
<u>The formula to calculate half-life:
</u>
N(t) = 
Here N(t) is the quantity which is “not decayed”.
is the “initial quantity” of the substance.
λ is the “decay constant”
Answer:
my probably best answer is B
The answer is 451.4124 argon
Answer:
10.2 mg
Explanation:
Step 1: Calculate the total amount of water she drank
1 year has 365 days and she lived in Chicago for 2 years = 2 × 365 days = 730 days.
If she drank 1.4 L of water per day, the total amount of water she drank is:
730 day × 1.4 L/day = 1022 L
Step 2: Calculate the amount of Pb in 1022 L of water
The concentration of Pb is 10 ppb (10 μg/L).
1022 L × 10 μg/L = 10220 μg
Step 3: Convert 10220 μg to milligrams
We will use the conversion factor 1 mg = 1000 μg.
10220 μg × 1 mg/1000 μg = 10.2 mg
Answer:
B. 120 cm
Explanation:
The scale is 1 to 15, so when we are given the value of 8cm all you have to do it multiply 8 by 15 which leaves you with 120.
hope this helps!
