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

A 0.660 kg ball is dropped from rest from the top of a building and falls for 5.65 seconds. How tall was the building ?
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

The height of the building is approximately 156.58 m

Explanation:

The mass of the ball dropped from rest from the building top = 0.660 kg

The time in which the ball falls, t = 5.65 seconds

The height, h, of the building is given from the following equation of motion;

h = u·t + ¹/₂·g·t²

Where;

u = The initial velocity of the ball = 0 m/s

g = The acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Plugging in the values, we have;

h = 0 × 5.65 + ¹/₂ × 9.81 × 5.65² ≈ 156.58 m

The height of the building, h ≈ 156.58 m.

The apparent displacement of an object as it is viewed from two different positions is known as
Zigmanuir [339]
That's called 'parallax'.

To see it happen, go outside, hold your arm straight out in front
of your face and stick your thumb up.  Close one eye, and notice
where your thumb appears against the houses across the street. 
Now, don't move your arm, but just close the first eye and open
the other one.  You'll see your thumb jump in front of a different
house.  The angle that your thumb appeared to move is its parallax.
