either multiply 128 by .5 until you get to 2 counting each time or use 2 formulas ln(n2/n1)=-k(t2-t1) to get k then input k into ln(2)=k*t1/2
n2 is final amount and n1 is beginning and t is either time elapsed as in the first formula or the actual half life that is t1/2
Explanation:
The half life of Carbon-14 is 5730 years, how many years would it take for 7/8 of the original amount to decay?
<span>Can somebody please help with this problem. I *think* I understand the basics of what a half life is. If I learned correctly, its the amount it takes for half of a sample to decay. It should also happen exponentially, 1/2 remaining after one half life, 1/4 after the second, 1/16 after the third etc. I'm still a little shaky though. Could somebody please clarify what exactly a half life is and how it can be determined (i.e. how to find the time it would take for 7/8 to decay) </span>
the sun was stationary in the center of the universe and the earth revolved around it....
The power delivered is equal to the product between the voltage V and the current I:
This power is delivered for a total time of
, so the total energy delivered to the battery is
Answer:
"Magnitude of a vector can be zero only if all components of a vector are zero."
Explanation:
"The magnitude of a vector can be smaller than length of one of its components."
Wrong, the magnitude of a vector is at least equal to the length of a component. This is because of the Pythagoras theorem. It can never be smaller.
"Magnitude of a vector is positive if it is directed in +x and negative if is is directed in -X direction."
False. Magnitude of a vector is always positive.
"Magnitude of a vector can be zero if only one of components is zero."
Wrong. For the magnitude of a vector to be zero, all components must be zero.
"If vector A has bigger component along x direction than vector B, it immediately means, the vector A has bigger magnitude than vector B."
Wrong. The magnitude of a vector depends on all components, not only the X component.
"Magnitude of a vector can be zero only if all components of a vector are zero."
True.
