Answer:
t = 5.59x10⁴ y
Explanation:
To calculate the time for the ¹⁴C drops to 1.02 decays/h, we need to use the next equation:
(1)
<em>where
: is the number of decays with time, A₀: is the initial activity, λ: is the decay constant and t: is the time.</em>
To find A₀ we can use the following equation:
(2)
<em>where N₀: is the initial number of particles of ¹⁴C in the 1.03g of the trees carbon </em>
From equation (2), the N₀ of the ¹⁴C in the trees carbon can be calculated as follows:
<em>where
: is the tree's carbon mass,
: is the Avogadro's number and
: is the ¹²C mass. </em>
Similarly, from equation (2) λ is:
<em>where t 1/2: is the half-life of ¹⁴C= 5700 years </em>

So, the initial activity A₀ is:
Finally, we can calculate the time from equation (1):

<span>Matter is c) something that has mass and occupies space. Everything in our known universe takes up space, and everything is made up of matter. Matter as a concept is not something that can have any unit of measurement put upon it. </span>
Nuclear fusion in the core tries to blow the star apart. Gravity holds it together. Whoever designed that system really knew what he was doing. I'm kinda grateful to him.
Answer:
Explanation:
Hello,
Let's get the data for this question before proceeding to solve the problems.
Mass of flywheel = 40kg
Speed of flywheel = 590rpm
Diameter = 75cm , radius = diameter/ 2 = 75 / 2 = 37.5cm.
Time = 30s = 0.5 min
During the power off, the flywheel made 230 complete revolutions.
∇θ = [(ω₂ + ω₁) / 2] × t
∇θ = [(590 + ω₂) / 2] × 0.5
But ∇θ = 230 revolutions
∇θ/t = (530 + ω₂) / 2
230 / 0.5 = (530 + ω₂) / 2
Solve for ω₂
460 = 295 + 0.5ω₂
ω₂ = 330rpm
a)
ω₂ = ω₁ + αt
but α = ?
α = (ω₂ - ω₁) / t
α = (330 - 590) / 0.5
α = -260 / 0.5
α = -520rev/min
b)
ω₂ = ω₁ + αt
0 = 590 +(-520)t
520t = 590
solve for t
t = 590 / 520
t = 1.13min
60 seconds = 1min
X seconds = 1.13min
x = (60 × 1.13) / 1
x = 68seconds
∇θ = [(ω₂ + ω₁) / 2] × t
∇θ = [(590 + 0) / 2] × 1.13
∇θ = 333.35 rev/min
