Imagine you are dating a mineral sample that contains one-eighth of its original parent isotope. What is the
absolute age of the sample if the half-life of the parent isotope is 15 years?
A. 1.875 years
B. 23 years
C. 45 years
D. 120 years
The age of the sample can be determined using the first order equation of the nuclear decay. The age of the parent isotope here is 45 years.
What is half life ?Unstable radioactive nuclei undergo nuclear decay to produce more stable nuclei with more life time. The time required to decay half of the initial amount of a material is called its half life.
The half life of a sample is related with the decay constant k as follows:
k = 0.693/t1/2
Given that, t1/2 = 15 years
k = 0.693/15 = 0.0462 yr⁻¹
The first order equation of the decay process is written as:
k = 1/t ln w0/wt
where w0 is the initial amount and wt be the amount after time t.
then t = 1/k ln w0/wt
Given that, the sample was decayed to one eighth of the initial amount .
t = 1/k ln 8
= 1/0.0462 ln 8
= 45 years.
Therefore, option C is correct.

I NEED ANSWER ASAP!!!
At which point(s) will acceleration occur shown in the image???
Answer:
Gravity is an ever present force, and therefore acceleration is guaranteed to happen at every single one of those points (and in fact, everywhere in the universe).
On top of that, friction will be present in all four spots (friction with the rails, with the air, with the axles, etc.), and friction is a perfectly acceptable force that will cause acceleration, slowing the roller coaster down.
So the correct answer is every single point, regardless of what answer the teacher expects.
The object will be moving faster if the acceleration and velocity are pointing in the same direction. The object will also slow down if the acceleration is pointing in the opposite direction as the velocity.
What role of acceleration in the motion of object?When an object's speed, direction of motion, or both change, it accelerates. Even while it may appear to be virtually immediate in some circumstances, such as when a golf ball is struck by a club or during car collisions, changes in an object's speed are always continuous.
Since gravity is a constant force, acceleration will unavoidably occur at each of those locations and throughout the whole universe.
Therefore, In addition, there will be friction at all four locations—friction with the axles, the air, the rails, etc.—and friction is a completely normal force that will accelerate the roller coaster, slowing it down.

A ‘can-chiller’ is used to make a can of drink colder. The initial temperature of the liquid in the can was 25.0 °C. The can-chiller decreased the temperature of the liquid to 20.0 °C. The amount of energy transferred from the liquid was 6930 J. The mass of liquid in the can was 0.330 kg.
Calculate the specific heat capacity of the liquid. Give the unit.
Please help :)
Answer:
4200 J/°C/kg
Explanation:
The formula for heat transfer is given by :
Q= m*c*ΔT where;
Q= heat transferred = 6930 J
m=mass of the liquid = 0.330 kg
c= specific heat capacity=?
ΔT = 25-20 = 5.0°C
Applying the values in the formula as;
Q= m*c*ΔT
6930 = 0.330 * c * 5
6930 = 1.65 c
6930/1.65 = c
4200 = c
c= 4200 J/°C/kg

When blue light (450 nm) is shone on a particular metal surface, electrons are ejected with a kinetic energy of 2.5 x 10-20 J. Calculate the work function for this metal.
Answer:
the work function of the metal is 4.167 x 10⁻¹⁹ J .
Explanation:
Given;
wavelength of the incident light, λ = 450 nm = 450 x 10⁻⁹ m
kinetic energy, K.E = 2.5 x 10⁻²⁰ J
The energy of the incident light is calculated as;
[tex]E = hf = \frac{h c}{\lambda} \\\\where;\\\\c \ is \ speed \ of \ light = 3 \times 10^8 \ m/s\\\\ h \ is \ Planck's constant = 6.626 \times 10^{-34} Js \\\\E = \frac{(6.626 \times 10^{-34})(3\times 10^8)}{450 \times 10^{-9}} \\\\E = 4.417 \times 10^{-19} \ J[/tex]
Apply Einstein photoelectric equation to determine the work function of the metal;
E = W + K.E
where;
W is the work function of the metal
W = E - K.E
W = 4.417 x 10⁻¹⁹ J - 2.5 x 10⁻²⁰ J
W = 44.17 x 10⁻²⁰ J - 2.5 x 10⁻²⁰ J
W = 41.67 x 10⁻²⁰ J
W = 4.167 x 10⁻¹⁹ J
Therefore, the work function of the metal is 4.167 x 10⁻¹⁹ J .

Answer:
Total momentum = 50kgm/s
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Mass, M1 = 5kg
Mass, M2 = 7kg
Velocity, V1 = 10m/s
Velocity, V2 = 0m/s (since it's at rest).
To find the total momentum;
Momentum can be defined as the multiplication (product) of the mass possessed by an object and its velocity. Momentum is considered to be a vector quantity because it has both magnitude and direction.
Mathematically, momentum is given by the formula;
[tex] Momentum = Mass * Velocity [/tex]
The law of conservation of momentum states that the total linear momentum of any closed system would always remain constant with respect to time.
Total momentum = M1V1 + M2V2
Substituting into the equation, we have;
Total momentum = 5*10 + 7*0
Total momentum = 50 + 0
Total momentum = 50 kgm/s
Therefore, the total momentum of the bowling ball and the putty after they collide is 50 kgm/s.
Explain how the design of a racing car makes it less likely to turn over.
The principles which allow aircraft to fly are also applicable in car racing. The only difference being the wing or airfoil shape is mounted upside down producing downforce instead of lift. The Bernoulli Effect means that: if a fluid (gas or liquid) flows around an object at different speeds, the slower moving fluid will exert more pressure than the faster moving fluid on the object. The object will then be forced toward the faster moving fluid. The wing of an airplane is shaped so that the air moving over the top of the wing moves faster than the air beneath it. Since the air pressure under the wing is greater than that above the wing, lift is produced. The shape of the Indy car exhibits the same principle. The shape of the chasis is similar to an upside down airfoil. The air moving under the car moves faster than that above it, creating downforce or negative lift on the car. Airfoils or wings are also used in the front and rear of the car in an effort to generate more downforce. Downforce is necessary in maintaining high speeds through the corners and forces the car to the track. Light planes can take off at slower speeds than a ground effects race car can generate on the track. An Indy ground effect race car can reach speeds in excess of 230 mph using downforce. In addition the shape of the underbody (an inverted wing) creates an area of low pressure between the bottom of the car and the racing surface. This sucks the car to road which results in higher cornering speeds.
The total aerodynamic package of the race car is emphasized now more than ever before. Teams that plan on staying competitive use track testing and wind tunnels to develop the most efficient aerodynamic design. The focus of their efforts is on the aerodynamic forces of negative lift or downforce and drag. The relationship between drag and downforce is especially important. Aerodynamic improvements in wings are directed at generating downforce on the race car with a minimum of drag. Downforce is necessary for maintaining speed through the corners. Unwanted drag which accompanies downforce will slow the car. The efficient design of a chassis is based on a downforce/drag compromise. In addition the specific race circuit will place a different demand on the aerodynamic setup of the car.
A road course with low speed corners, requires a car setup with a high downforce package. A high downforce package is necessary to maintain speeds in the corners and to reduce wear on the brakes. This setup includes large front and rear wings. The front wings have additional flaps which are adjustable. The rear wing is made up of three sections that maximize downforce.
The speedway setup looks much different. The front and rear wings are almost flat and are used as stabilizers. The major downforce is found in the shape of the body and underbody. Drag reduction is more critical on the speedway than on other circuits. Since the drag force is proportional to the square of the speed, minimizing drag is a primary concern in the speedway setup. Lap speeds can average over 228 mph and top speeds can exceed 240 mph on a speedway circuit. Effective use of downforce is especially pronounced in highspeed corners. A race car traveling at 200 mph. can generate downforce that is approximately twice its own weight.
Generating the necessary downforce is concentrated in three specific areas of the car. The ongoing challenge for team engineers is to fine tune the airflow around these areas.

A student is leaving the lesson and walking to Maths at a speed of 1m/s. He notices that he is late for the lesson and speeds up to 3 m/s. It takes him 4 seconds to speed up. Calculate his acceleration.
Answer:
Acceleration = 0.5 m/s²
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Initial velocity, u = 1m/s
Final velocity, v = 3m/s
Time, t = 4 seconds
To find acceleration;
In physics, acceleration can be defined as the rate of change of the velocity of an object with respect to time.
This simply means that, acceleration is given by the subtraction of initial velocity from the final velocity all over time.
Hence, if we subtract the initial velocity from the final velocity and divide that by the time, we can calculate an object’s acceleration.
Mathematically, acceleration is given by the equation;
[tex]Acceleration (a) = \frac{final \; velocity - initial \; velocity}{time}[/tex]
[tex]a = \frac{v - u}{t}[/tex]
Substituting into the equation, we have;
Acceleration = (3 - 1)/4
Acceleration = 2/4
Acceleration = 0.5 m/s²
A horizontal pole is attached to the side of a building. There is a pivot P at the wall and a chain is connected from the end of the pole to a point higher up the wall. There is a tension force F in the chain. What is the moment of the force F about the pivot P?

Explanation:
Given that a horizontal pole is attached to the side of a building. There is a pivot P at the wall and a chain is connected from the end of the pole to a point higher up the wall. There is a tension force F in the chain. What is the moment of the force F about the pivot P?
Taking the moment from the pivot point P, that means the moment at point p = 0
Then, if we consider the weight mg of the pole, according to the principle of equilibrium : sum of the upward forces equal to the sum of the downward forces.
Therefore, mg = Fsinø ....... (1)
Also, taking moment at point P
Let the length of the pole = s
The length of the weight of the pole = 1/2 S
Fscosø = mgs/2
The distance s will cancel out
2Fcosø = mg ...... (3)
Substitute mg in equation 1 into equation 3
2fcosø = fsinø
F will cancel out
Tanø = 2
Ø = tan^-1(2)
Ø = 63.4 degree
The moment of force F about pivot point P will be
Moment = force × distance
Moment = Fcos63 × S
Moment = Fscos63

b) How much runway would the empty airplane use if its engines generated the same force?
Answer:
a) A force of 367718.75 newtons is needed to get the full airplane safely in the air.
b) The empty airplane would need a runway of 1828.571 meters.
Explanation:
a) This problem can be solved by using the Work-Energy Theorem, which states that work needed by the airplane to get minimum speed is equal to its change in translational kinetic energy, both measured in joules. The resulting formula is presented below:
[tex]F\cdot \Delta s = \frac{1}{2}\cdot m \cdot (v_{f}^{2}-v_{o}^{2})[/tex] (1)
Where:
[tex]F[/tex] - Minimum net force, measured in newtons.
[tex]\Delta s[/tex] - Runway length, measured in meters.
[tex]m[/tex] - Mass of the airplane, measured in kilograms.
[tex]v_{o}[/tex], [tex]v_{f}[/tex] - Initial and final speeds of the airplane, measured in meters per second.
If we know that [tex]m = 350000\,kg[/tex], [tex]v_{o} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex], [tex]v_{f} = 82\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex] and [tex]\Delta s = 3200\,m[/tex], then the minimum net force needed by the airplane to get itself safely in the air:
[tex]F = \frac{m\cdot (v_{f}^{2}-v_{o}^{2})}{2\cdot \Delta s}[/tex]
[tex]F = \frac{(350000\,kg)\cdot \left[\left(82\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}-\left(0\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}\right]}{2\cdot (3200\,m)}[/tex]
[tex]F = 367718.75\,N[/tex]
A force of 367718.75 newtons is needed to get the full airplane safely in the air.
b) If we know that [tex]m = 200000\,kg[/tex], [tex]v_{o} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex], [tex]v_{f} = 82\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex] and [tex]F = 367718.75\,N[/tex], then the length of the runway is:
[tex]\Delta s = \frac{m\cdot (v_{f}^{2}-v_{o}^{2})}{2\cdot F}[/tex]
[tex]\Delta s = \frac{(200000\,kg)\cdot \left[\left(82\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}-\left(0\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}\right]}{2\cdot (367718.75\,N)}[/tex]
[tex]\Delta s = 1828.571\,m[/tex]
The empty airplane would need a runway of 1828.571 meters.

7. Mac and Tosh are arguing about the track design. Mac claims that the car is moving fastest at point F because it is furthest along the track Tosh disagrees, claiming that the car moves fastest at point F because point F is at the lowest height Who do you agree with? Make a modification of the track design for point F and gather some evidence to support one claim or the other. Then discuss what changes you made, what observations were made, and the reasoning that supports one of the claim of either Mac or Tosh.
Answer:
Tosh is correct.Swap the locations of points B and F on the track and gather speed data. If Mac is correct, the speed at F (closer to the start) should be lower. (It will not be, confirming Tosh's claim.)Explanation:
The total energy of the car is continuously being exchanged between potential energy and kinetic energy as the car moves along the track. Neglecting energy loss due to friction, the kinetic energy will be greatest when the potential energy is least, at the lowest point on the track. As a consequence we agree with Tosh that the speed will be greatest at F because it is the lowest point.
__
If the track were modified to move the lowest point nearer the start, say by interchanging points B and F, then data could be gathered to show whose theory is supported. The evidence needed is the speed of the car at the new location of point F. Tosh's argument is supported if the speed at the new point F is substantially the same.
If there is a difference in air pressure between two locations, what happens?
Answer:
High in the atmosphere, air pressure decreases. ... A low pressure system has lower pressure at its center than the areas around it. Winds blow towards the low pressure, and the air rises in the atmosphere where they meet. As the air rises, the water vapor within it condenses, forming clouds and often precipitation.
Explanation:
I was having trouble with this problem, and problems like it: A 3.2 kg pelican, with a 1.73 kg fish in its mouth, is flying 1.52 m/s at a height of 40 m when the fish wiggles free and fall back toward the ocean. How fast is the fish moving when it hits the water?
Answer:
28.1 m/s
Explanation:
[tex]u_x[/tex] = Initial velocity of the fish = 1.52 m/s
y = Height of the bird = 40 m
[tex]a_y[/tex] = Acceleration in y axis = [tex]9.81\ \text{m/s}^2[/tex]
[tex]u_y[/tex] = Initial velocity in y axis = 0
[tex]y=u_yt+\dfrac{1}{2}a_yt^2\\\Rightarrow 40=0+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.81t^2\\\Rightarrow t=\sqrt{\dfrac{40\times 2}{9.81}}\\\Rightarrow t=2.86\ \text{s}[/tex]
[tex]v_y=u_y+a_yt\\\Rightarrow v_y=0+9.81\times 2.86\\\Rightarrow v_y=28.057\ \text{m/s}[/tex]
The final velocity in x direction will remain the same as the initial velocity as there is no acceleration in the x direction [tex]u_x=v_x=1.52\ \text{m/s}[/tex]
Resultant velocity is given by
[tex]v=\sqrt{v_x^2+v_y^2}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{1.52^2+28.057^2}\\\Rightarrow v=28.1\ \text{m/s}[/tex]
The fish is moving at a velocity of 28.1 m/s when it hits the water.
