Luba_88 [7]3 years ago
3 0

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

Write down the (real) electric and magnetic fields for a monochromatic plane wave of amplitude E0 , frequency w, and phase angle
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

a) the oscillation of this field is in phase, when the magnetic field goes in the negative direction of y, the elective field goes in the positive direction of the z axis

b) the direction of the magnetic field perpendicular to this electric field and the speed in the negative x the magnetic field goes in the x direction and in the direction (1, - 1.1)

Explanation:

a) the polarization the determined wave oscillates the electric field, which is the z axis

 As the wave travels on the negative x-axis and the magnetic field is perpendicular, this field goes on the positive y-axis

the oscillation of this field is in phase, when the magnetic field goes in the negative direction of y, the elective field goes in the positive direction of the z axis

be) in the case of a polarization in the xi plane the magnetic field must go in the direction of the magnetic field perpendicular to this electric field and the speed in the negative x the magnetic field goes in the x direction and in the direction (1, - 1.1)

A flat disk of radius 0.50 m is oriented so that the plane of the disk makes an angle of 30 degrees with a uniform electric fiel
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

The electric flux is 280\ \rm N.m^2/C

Explanation:

Given:

  • Radius of the disc R=0.50 m
  • Angle made by disk with the horizontal \theta=30^\circ
  • Magnitude of the electric Field E=713.0\ \rm N/C

The flux of the Electric Field E due to the are dA in space can be found out by using Gauss Law which is as follows

\phi=\int E.dA

where

  • \phi is the total Electric Flux
  • E is the Electric Field
  • dA is the Area through which the electric flux is to be calculated.

Now according to question we have

=EA\cos\theta \\=713\times 3.14\times 0.5^2 \times \cos60^\circ\\=280\ \rm N.m^2/C

Hence the electric flux is calculated.

True or false Scientific endeavor is driven by both simple curiosity as well as societal demands
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

its true that Scientific endeavor is driven by both simple curiosity as well as societal demands.

Explanation:

When a scientist has a curiosity about something he carried out a research. and when their is a demand of something in society that time scientific research is carried out. Therefore its true that a scientific endeavor is driven by  simple curiosity or societal demand.

For example

in society, there is demand of a medicine which can completely kill the cancer  and a scientist has curiosity to know how to kill cancer cell. In this way a scientific endeavor for cancer medicine can be carried out by both simple curiosity as well as societal demands.
