Answer:Half-life is the amount of time it takes for the initial mass of the isotope to decompose, by half, into other lighter atoms.
Explanation:Different radioactive isotopes have different half-lives. For example, the element technetium-99m has a half life of 6 hours. This means that is 100 kg of the element is left to decay, in 6 hours, 50kg of the mass will have changed into other elements/atoms. The half-life of uranium-238 is 4.5 billion years while that of polonium-216 is only 0.145 seconds.
Answer:
FORCE - rate of change of momentum, ie its changing velocity [change in velocity is of more concern] NEWTON
WORK - product of force and displacement, ie [velocity may be constant or variable but change in position with certain force is of more concern] JOULES
I hope you understood from this..
Answer:
The total amount of heat needed will be 
.
Explanation:
We will divide the calculation in two: First, the heat needed to melt the ice, and then the heat needed to warm the resulting liquid from 0°C to 37°C.
<em>i) </em>The fusion heat will be:
<em>ii)</em> The heat needed to warm the water from 
to 
will be:
So, the total amount needed will be the sum of these two results:
.
This is true. let me know if im wrong.
Answer:
0.65 kg*m/s and 0.165 kg*m/s
Explanation:
Step one:
given data
mass m= 0.5kg
initial velolcity u=1.3m/s
final velocity v= 0.97m/s
Required
The change in momentum
Step two:
We know that the expression for impulse is given as
Ft= mv
Ft= 0.5*1.3
Ft= 0.65 kg*m/s
The expression for the change in momentum is given as
P= mΔv
substitute
Pt= 0.5*(1.3-0.97)
Pt= 0.5*0.33
Pt=0.165 kg*m/s
