The half life of Po-218 is three minutes. How much of a 2.0 gram sample remains after 15 minutes? Suppose you wanted to buy some

of this isotope, and it required half an hour for it to reach you. How much should you order if you needed to use 0.10 gram of this material?

After 15 minutes :

M = M₀ (1/2)^(t/T)

M = 2 (1/2)^(15/3)

M = 0.0625 gr

In order to get 0.1 gr :

M = M₀ (1/2)^(t/T)

0.1 = M₀ (1/2)^(30/3)

0.1 = Mo / 1024

Mo = 102.4 gr

A sound has a sound level of 30 dB. Its intensity is what multiple of the standard reference level for intensities?
arsen [322]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

1000th multiple of the standard reference level for intensities.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The sound intensity level (β), measured in decibels, of a sound with an intensity of I is defined as follows;

β = 10 log (I / I₀)       --------------------(i)

Where;

I₀ = reference intensity

Given from the question;

β = sound level = 30dB

Substitute this value into equation (i) as follows;

30 = 10 log (I / I₀)

Divide both sides by 3;

3 = log (I / I₀)

Take antilog of both sides;

10^(3) = (I / I₀)

1000 = I / I₀

Solve for I;

I = 1000I₀

Therefore the intensity of the sound is 1000 times the standard reference level for intensities (I₀)

A spring scale exerts a net force of 8.5 N on an object. What is the object's mass if it has an acceleration of
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

mass of the object is 2.18 kg

Explanation:

Given

Force (F) = 8.5 N = 8.5 kg.m/s^{2}

acceleration (a) = 3.9 m/s^{2}

Mass (m) = ?

We know that the newton's second law of motion gives the relation between mass of ab object. force acted upon and the amount the object is accelerated. It is expressed in the form of an equation:

F = ma

mass, m = F/a

               = \frac{8.5 kgms^{-2} }{3.9 ms^{-2} }

               = 2.18 kg
