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 stone is thrown vertically upwards with an intinal velocity of 20 m/sec . find the maximum height it reaches and the time by i
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

Maximum height is20m and time taken will be 2second

Explanation:

vi=20m/s

vf=0m/s

g=10m/s^2

Using third equation for objects falling freely

2gh=(vf)^2-(vi)^2

Putting values

2(10m/s^2)h=(0m/s)^2-(20m/s)^2

20h=400m

h=20m

Now we have to find the time

Using first equation of motion for objects falling down freely

vf=vi+at

substituting the equation

(vf-vi)/g=t

(0-20)/10=t

t=2second

B h combining g two hydrogen atoms ans one oxygen atom for a molecule of water is made from
vivado [14]
The correct answer to this question is this one:

By definition, if a molecule is composed of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom, that molecule is a water.<span> In fact, the structure of water is written as H20, which signifies that two hydrogen (H) atoms and one oxygen (O) atom make up the molecule.</span>

Select the statements that correctly interpret the data in this heating curve.
tekilochka [14]

The consistent temperature indicated by section 2 represents the flow of energy lost as the water freezes.

Section 2 indicates that energy is being utilized to bring all molecules to the melting point.

Section 4 indicates that the temperature is stable until all molecules reach the boiling point.

The increasing temperature in section 5 indicates that molecular motion is increasing.

Explanation:

The figure is missing: find it in attachment.

The graph represents the temperature of a block of ice as heat is continuously supplied to it.

At the beginning (section 1), the temperature increases: in this phase, the heat supplied to the ice is used to increase the kinetic energy of vibration of the molecules of ice.

When the ice reach point A (melting point), the ice starts to melt. In this phase (section 2), the temperature of the substance remains constant, because all the heat supplied is used to break the bonds between the molecules, converting the ice into liquid water.

At point B, the ice has completely melted, and therefore we now have liquid water.

In sector 3 (between B and C), the temperature of the water increases again as we supply more and more heat: this heat, in fact, is used to increase the kinetic energy of the molecules, which move faster and faster.

Then, the water reaches the boiling point (point C): after that, the water starts to boil, (sector 4) and the heat supplied is entirely used to remove the intermolecular forces between the molecules of water; as a result, the temperature remains constant during the process.

At poind D, the water has completely boiled, and converted into gas state (steam).

After that, the temperature of the steam starts to increase again (sector 5) as more and more heat is supplied, because it is used to increase the kinetic energy of the molecules.

Therefore, the correct statements are:

The consistent temperature indicated by section 2 represents the flow of energy lost as the water freezes.

Section 2 indicates that energy is being utilized to bring all molecules to the melting point.

Section 4 indicates that the temperature is stable until all molecules reach the boiling point.

The increasing temperature in section 5 indicates that molecular motion is increasing.
