Ring of fire happens mostly as a result of plate tectonics.

Now if water is ever channeled out of the pacific ocean, we would have a number of deep ocean trenches. These trenches are side by side with volcanic arcs that are forward on the path of the ring of fire.

These volcanic arc is ring of fire and it surrounds the tectonic plate. The volcanic arc is what produces islands and mountain ranges.

In conclusion, ring of fire are due to plate tectonics, Arcs along the ring of fire after water is drained from the pacific forms mountain ranges.

Answer:

if you drain the water out of the Pacific Ocean it would cause a series of deep ocean trenches that flow parallel to volcanic arcs along the ring of fire, which the arcs then create continental mountain ranges and islands

A sample of sodium-24 with an activity of 14 mCi is used to study the rate of blood flow in the circulatory system. If sodium-24

SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

From;

0.693/t1/2 = 2.303/t log (Ao/A)

Where;

t1/2 = half life of the sodium-24

t = time taken

Ao = initial activity of sodium-24

A= activity of sodium-24 at time t

0.693/15 = 2.303/15 log (14/A)

0.0462 = 0.1535 log (14/A)

0.0462/0.1535 = log (14/A)

log (14/A) = 0.0462/0.1535

14/A = Antilog(0.3)

14/A= 1.995

A = 14/1.995

A = 7.0 mCi

0.693/15 = 2.303/30 log (14/A)

0.0462 =0.0768 log(14/A)

0.0462/0.0768 =log (14/A)

(14/A) =Antilog (0.6)

A = 14/Antilog (0.6)

A = 3.5 mCi

0.693/15 = 2.303/45 log (14/A)

0.0462= 0.0512 log (14/A)

log (14/A) = 0.0462/0.0512

log (14/A) = 0.9

(14/A) = Antilog (0.9)

A= 14/Antilog (0.9)

A = 14/7.9

A = 1.77 mCi

2.5 days = 2.5 * 24 hours = 60 hours

0.693/15 = 2.303/60 log (14/A)

0.0462 = 0.03838 log (14/A)

log (14/A) = 0.0462/0.03838

(14/A) = Antilog(1.2)

A= 14/Antilog(1.2)

A = 14/15.8

A = 0.886 mCi

Note that activity (A) decreases as time increases.

enmoles of helium gas and one mole of solid argon are in thermal equilibrium with each other at 10 K. Both helium and argon are

oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

Average speed of helium is higher than argon.

Explanation:

The average speed of helium is higher than argon atom under the conditions specified because of lower mass of the helium atom as compared to argon atom. Average speed of an atom is inversely proportional to mass of the atom. If mass of an atom decreases, the atom moves with higher speed while on the other hand, if the mass of an atom increases the average speed of an atom decreases.
