Answer:

500.3 Bq

Explanation:

From the formula;

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

Where;

t1/12 = half life = 5 years

Ao = initial activity = 2000 Bq

0.693/5 = 2.303/10 log (2000/A)

0.1386= 0.2303  log (2000/A)

0.1386/0.2303 =  log (2000/A)

0.6018 = log (2000/A)

(2000/A) = Antilog (0.6018)

(2000/A) = 3.9976

A = 2000/3.9976

A = 500.3 Bq

he fan blades on a jet engine make one thousand revolutions in a time of 54.9 ms. What is the angular frequency of the blades?
Gnesinka [82]

So, the angular frequency of the blades approximately <u>36.43π rad/s</u>.

<h3>Introduction</h3>

Hi ! Here I will discuss about the angular frequency or what is also often called the angular velocity because it has the same unit dimensions. <u>Angular frequency occurs, when an object vibrates (either moving harmoniously / oscillating or moving in a circle)</u>. Angular frequency can be roughly interpreted as the magnitude of the change in angle (in units of rad) per unit time. So, based on this understanding, the angular frequency can be calculated using the equation :

\boxed{\sf{\bold{\omega = \frac{\theta}{t}}}}

With the following condition :

  • \sf{\omega} = angular frequency (rad/s)
  • \sf{\theta} = change of angle value (rad)
  • t = interval of the time (s)

<h3>Problem Solving</h3>

We know that :

  • \sf{\theta} = change of angle value = 1,000 revolution = 1,000 × 2π rad = 2,000π rad/s >> Remember 1 rev = 2π rad/s.
  • t = interval of the time = 54.9 s.

What was asked :

  • \sf{\omega} = angular frequency = ... rad/s

Step by step :

\sf{\omega = \frac{\theta}{t}}

\sf{\omega = \frac{2,000 \pi}{54.9}}

\boxed{\sf{\omega \approx 36.43 \pi \: rad/s}}

<h3>Conclusion :</h3>

So, the angular frequency of the blades approximately 36.43π rad/s.

ruslelena [56]
  • T1=40°C=313K
  • T_2=-10°C=263K

Applying Charles law

\\ \sf\Rrightarrow \dfrac{V_1}{T_1}=\dfrac{V_2}{T_2}

\\ \sf\Rrightarrow \dfrac{100}{313}=\dfrac{V_2}{263}

\\ \sf\Rrightarrow V_2=\dfrac{26300}{313}

\\ \sf\Rrightarrow V_2=84.02ml

Where does groundwater come from?
jek_recluse [69]
Groundwater is the water found underground in the cracks and spaces in soil, sand and rock. It is stored in and moves slowly through geologic formations of soil, sand and rocks called aquifers.


Hope this helps.

Observe yourself breathing and count the number of times you inhale per second. During each breath you probably inhale 0.66 L of
Pavel [41]

To solve this exercise it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Robert Boyle's law where:

PV=nRT

Where,

P = Pressure

V = Volume

T = Temperature

n = amount of substance

R = Ideal gas constant

We start by calculating the volume of inhaled O_2 for it:

V = 21\% * 0.66L

V = 0.1386L

Our values are given as

P = 1atm

T=293K R = 0.083145kJ*mol^{-1}K^{-1}

Using the equation to find n, we have:

PV=nRT

n = \frac{PV}{RT}

n = \frac{(1)(0.1386)}{(0.0821)(293)}

n = 5.761*10^{-3}mol

Number of molecules would be found through Avogadro number, then

\#Molecules = 5.761*10^{-3}*6.022*10^{23}

\#Molecules = 3.469*10^{21} molecules
