Answer:

the biggest problem with mainstream renewable energy is intermittency.

Wind power is only generated when it's windy.

Solar power is only generated when it's sunny.

This creates several fundamental issues.

Radioactive cobalt-60 is frequently used in treating cancer. It took 24 years for a 10 gram sample to decay to 0.625 grams. What
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

Half life is 6 years.

Explanation:

T½ = In2 / λ

Where λ = decay constant.

But N = No * e^-λt

Where N = final mass after a certain period of time

No = initial mass

T = time

N = 0.625g

No = 10g

t = 24 years

N = No* e^-λt

N / No = e^-λt

λ = -( 1 / t) In N / No (inverse of e is In. Check logarithmic rules)

λ = -(1 / 24) * In (0.625/10)

λ = -0.04167 * In(0.0625)

λ = -0.04167 * (-2.77)

λ = 0.1154

T½ = In2 / λ

T½ = 0.693 / 0.1154

T½ = 6.00 years.

The half life of radioactive cobalt-60 is 6 years

{Science Question} -Photosynthesis-
MAVERICK [17]
Look I am not even close to a genius in this type of stuff but the leaves help collect energy and sunlight for the plant to live off of during the winter. It basically needs them for processing and helping them with their food. Also food is stored in every pine needles mitochondrion or the powerhouse of their cell structure. In the mitochondrion their is things like chloropasts. These are like the energy or food for the cell. So when the tree cant draw nutrients from its roots or soil anymore all the excess things stored in the pine needles will help the tree survive.

Which mixture can be separated based on differences in the particle size of the components?
Rina8888 [55]

Answer: Mixtures you can separate are like cereal and milk. Hope that helps

Explanation:  Filteration is required to separate a mixture.

So heterogeneous mixures (that contain substances with different particle sizes)  can be separated with a filter.  

Homogeneous mixtures are uniform in composition so they will not be able to be separated.

Let’s say that you have a solvatochromic compound that appears red in a solvent. You dissolve the compound in another solvent an
EastWind [94]

Answer:

Hypsochromic compound, More polar solvent

Explanation:

Hypsochromic shift refers to the shift of solution colour to blue side of the visible spectrum (blueshift) with increasing polarity of the solvent. In our case, the solution changes to orange colour from red when solvent is changed. This means that the emission spectrum of the solution underwent blueshift. (As orange colour is on the 'blue' side for red colour.) So this is a hypsochromic shift, and the new solvent is more polar that the previous one, as it caused hypsochromic shift.
