Answer:

The net power needed to change the speed of the vehicle is 275,000 W

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the sport vehicle, m = 1600 kg

initial velocity of the vehicle, u = 15 m/s

final velocity of the vehicle, v = 40 m/s

time of motion, t = 4 s

The force needed to change the speed of the sport vehicle;

$F = \frac{m(v-u)}{t} \\\\F = \frac{1600(40-15)}{4} \\\\F = 10,000 \ N$

The net power needed to change the speed of the vehicle is calculated as;

$P_{net} = \frac{1}{2} F[u + v]\\\\P_{net} = \frac{1}{2} \times 10,000[15 + 40]\\\\P_{net} = 275,000 \ W$

When radioactive tracers are used for medical scans, the tracers both decay in the body via radiation, as well as being excreted

irinina [24]

Answer:

Effective half-time of the tracer is 3.6 days

Explanation:

The formula for calculating the decay due to excretion for the first process is ;

$\frac{dN_1}{dt } = - \lambda _e N_o$

here ;

$N_o$ = initial number of tracers

Then to the second process ; we have :

$\frac{dN_2}{dt } = - \lambda _e N_o$

The total decay is as a result of the overall process occurring ; we have :

$\frac{dN_{total}}{dt } = \frac{dN_1}{dt} + \frac{dN_2}{dt}$ ------ (1)

here ;

$\frac{dN_{total}}{dt } = \lambda _{total} N_o$

Putting the values in (1);we have :

$- \lambda _{Total} N_o = - \lambda_e N_o + ( -\lambda r N_o})$

$\lambda _{Total} = \lambda_e + \lambda r$

As we also know that:

$\frac{1}{t_{1/2}} = \frac{[t_{1/2}]_{radiation}+[t_{1/2}]_{excretion}}{[t_{1/2}]_{radiation}*[t_{1/2}]_{excretion}}$

$\frac{1}{t_{1/2}}_{effective}} = \frac{[t_{1/2}]_{radiation}+[t_{1/2}]_{excretion}}{[t_{1/2}]_{radiation}*[t_{1/2}]_{excretion}}$

$\frac{1}{t_{1/2}}_{effective}} = \frac{9+6}{9*6}$

$\frac{1}{t_{1/2}_{effective}}}=\frac{15}{54}$

$t_{1/2}_{effective}} = \frac{54}{15}$

= 3.6 days

Can you help me answer this?

The answer is D. If you aren't consistent with your drop positions, then your data may be invalid. To be frank: it basically screws over the experiment.
