Answer:
The volume of this pyramid is 16 cm³.
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume
of a solid pyramid can be given as:
,
where
is the area of the base of the pyramid, and
is the height of the pyramid.
Here's how to solve this problem with calculus without using the previous formula.
Imaging cutting the square-base pyramid in half, horizontally. Each horizontal cross-section will be a square. The lengths of these squares' sides range from 0 cm to 3 cm. This length will be also be proportional to the vertical distance from the vertice of the pyramid.
Refer to the sketch attached. Let the vertical distance from the vertice be
cm.
- At the vertice of this pyramid,
and the length of a side of the square is also
. - At the base of this pyramid,
and the length of a side of the square is
cm.
As a result, the length of a side of the square will be
.
The area of the square will be
.
Integrate the area of the horizontal cross-section with respect to
- from the top of the pyramid, where
, - to the base, where
.
.
In other words, the volume of this pyramid is 16 cubic centimeters.
62.5 mg sample will remain after 240 days
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Half-life = T = 60 days
The formula for calculating the quantity after n half lives is given by:

Here
N is the final amount
N_0 is the initial amount
n is the number of half lives passed
The number of half lives are calculated by dividing the time for which the remaining quantity has to be found by half life
The quantity has to be calculated for 240 days so,

Given

Putting the values in the formula

Hence,
62.5 mg sample will remain after 240 days
Keywords: Half-life, sample
