Two scientists are experimenting with pure samples of isotope X, a highly radioactive substance. The first scientist has a sampl

e with a mass of 20 grams. He measures a half-life of 232 seconds. The second scientist has a sample of the same substance with a mass of 80 grams. What is the half-life that she is most likely to measure?

Answer:

Half-life does not depend on sample size, only on the constituents of the sample.

The second scientist should also observe a half-life of about 232 sec or 40 grams of  X remaining after 232 sec.

Rudik [331]

Answer:

Technician A is correct.

Explanation:

Stroke of the engine means how far is the piston moves during the cycle.It is determined by the crank of the crank shaft. Engine displacement volume  is calculated by multiplying length of the stroke to the piston displacement area.

                          If there are more than one cylinder in the engine, than in that case this number in multiplied by the number of the cylinders inside the engine.

Therefore technician A is correct.

First consider a Carnot engine that operates between a hot reservoir at 58°C and a cold reservoir at -17°C. In running 24 minute
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Hot reservoir temperature is

TH = 58°C

TH = 58 + 273 = 331 K

Cold reservoir temperature

TC = -17°C

TC = -17°C + 273 = 256K

In 24minutes 590 J of heat was removed from hot reservoir

t = 24mins

t = 24 × 60 = 1440 seconds

Then,

Power is given as

P = E / t

P = 590 / 1440

P = 0.41 W

Since this removed from the hot reservoir, then, QH = 0.41W

We want to find heat expelled to the cold reservoir QX

Efficiency is given as

η = 1 - TH/TC = 1 - QH/QC

1 - TH/TC = 1 - QH/QC

TH/TC = QH/QC

Make QC subject of formula

QC = QH × TC / TH

QC = 0.41 × 256 / 331

QC = 0.317 W
