Answer:
222/88 Ra
Explanation:
We have to wait 5.57 half lives for a radioactive sample to drop to 2.10 % of its original activity.
To find the tike taken for the activity, we need to know about radioactivity and half-life.
What is radioactivity?Radioactivity is the rate of decay of a radioactive substance with respect to time. Mathematically, radioactivity is given asR=R₀e^(-λ×t)
From the above expression time is given ast= 1/λ ln(R₀/R)
What is half-life?Half-life is the time taken for decay of radioactive sample to half of its initial value. Mathematically, half-life= ln2 / λWhat is the expression of time of activity in term of half-life?From the half-life expression, 1/λ=half-life/ln2.Putting the value of 1/λ in the expression of time of activity, we havet=(half-life/ln2)×ln(R₀/R)
What is the time for radioactive sample to drop to 2.10 % of its original activity?Here R=0.021R₀, so t= (half-life/ln2)×ln(R₀/0.021R₀)=5.57 half-lives
Thus, we can conclude that we have to wait 5.57 half lives for a radioactive sample to drop to 2.10 % of its original activity.

Find the binding energy per nucleon for the plutonium isotope 239Pu. The mass of the neutral atom is 239.05216 u.
Answer:
The answer is "[tex]\bold{7.56 \ Me\ V}[/tex]".
Explanation:
calculating the binding energy on per nucleon:
calculating number of proton and neutrons:
proton [tex]P_u=94[/tex]
neutron[tex]= 239-94=145[/tex]
calculating mass:
proton mass [tex]\ m_P=1.007825 \ amu\\\\[/tex]
neutron mass [tex]\ m_n=1.008665 \ amu\\\\[/tex]
neutral atom mass [tex]m = 239.05216 \ amu\\\\[/tex]
mass of prtons[tex]= 94 \times 1.007825 = 94.73555 \ amu\\\\[/tex]
mass of neutrons[tex]= 145 \times 1.008665= 146.256425 \ amu\\\\[/tex]
Total nucleons mass formula:
[tex]\to m_n = (P+n)[/tex]
[tex]= 94.73555+ 146.256425\\\\= 240.991975 \ amu[/tex]
calculating the mass of defect:
[tex]\to \Delta m= m_n-m\\\\[/tex]
[tex]= 240.991975 - 239.05216\\\\= 1.939815 \ amu\\\\[/tex]
calculating the total of the binding energy:
[tex]\to BE=\Delta m\times 931.5 \ mev[/tex]
[tex]= 1.939815 \times 931.5\\\\=1806.938 \ Me \ V\\\\[/tex]
BE in per nucleon [tex]=\frac{BE}{239}= 7.56 \ Me\ V[/tex]
What is the magnitude of the centripetal force that must be applied in order for a 2kg ball on a 2.0 m string to spin with uniform circular motion at 5.0 m/s
The ball needs to accelerate with a magnitude a (pointed towards the center of the circle) of
a = (5.0 m/s)² / (2.0 m) = 12.5 m/s²
Then the required tension F in the string would need to be
F = (2 kg) (12.5 m/s²) = 25 N
A 1.00-m3 object floats in water with 30.0% of its volume above the waterline. What does the object weigh out of the water?
Answer:
Object's weight = 6,839.42 N
Explanation:
Given
Above waterline = 30%
Volume of object = 1m^3
Required
Determine the weight of the object
First, we need to calculate its Mass
Mass = Density of Water * Volume of object in water
Density of water = 997kg/m³
If 30% is above waterline, then 70% is in water.
So:
Mass = Density of Water * Volume of object in water
Mass = 997kg/m³ * 70%m³
Mass = 997kg * 70%
Mass = 697.9 kg
The object weight sis then calculated as thus:
Weight = Mass * Acceleration of gravity
Weight = 697.9 kg * 9.8m/s²
Weight = 6 839.42 N

Calculate the RMS speed of helium atoms near the surface of the Sun at a temperature of about 5300 K.
Answer:
RMS velocity, [tex]v_{rms}=5748.75\ m/s[/tex]
Explanation:
We need to find the RMS speed of helium atoms near the surface of the Sun at a temperature of about 5300 K.
The formula for RMS speed of a gas is given by :
[tex]v_{rms}=\sqrt{\dfrac{3RT}{m}}[/tex]
Where
R is ideal gas constant, R = 8.314 J /mol K
T = 5300 K
m is molar mass of Helium, [tex]m = 4\times 10^{-3}\ Kg/mol[/tex]
Substituting all the values in above formula :
[tex]v_{rms}=\sqrt{\dfrac{3\times 8.314\times 5300}{4\times 10^{-3}}}\\\\=5748.75\ m/s[/tex]
So, the RMS speed Helium atoms 5748.75 m/s.

An opera singer who is a baritone, lowers his pitch and raises his voice for a song. Which best describes how the resulting sound wave has changed? The sound wave will have:
a lower amplitude and higher wavelength
a lower amplitude and higher frequency.
a higher amplitude and lower frequency.
a higher amplitude and faster speed
Answer: 3.
Explanation:
The correct answer is a higher amplitude and lower frequency. Since an opera singer is lowering his pitch it means that he is creating higher amplitude and because he is raising his voice for a song with that higher amplitude he is creating lower frequency.
An unknown radioactive sample is observed to decrease in activity by a factor of two in a one hour period. What is its half-life?
Answer:
The half-life is [tex] t_{1/2} = 1.005 h[/tex]
Explanation:
Using the decay equation we have:
[tex]A=A_{0}e^{-\lambda t}[/tex]
Where:
λ is the decay constantA(0) the initial activityA is the activity at time tWe know the activity decrease by a factor of two in a one hour period (t = 1 h), it means that [tex]A = \frac{A_{0}}{2}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{A_{0}}{2}=A_{0}e^{-\lambda*1 h}[/tex]
[tex]0.5=e^{-\lambda*1 h}[/tex]
Taking the natural logarithm on each side we have:
[tex]ln(0.5)=-\lambda[/tex]
[tex]\lambda=0.69 h^{-1}[/tex]
Now, the relationship between the decay constant λ and the half-life t(1/2) is:
[tex]\lambda = \frac{ln(2)}{t_{1/2}}[/tex]
[tex] t_{1/2} = \frac{ln(2)}{\lambda}[/tex]
[tex] t_{1/2} = \frac{ln(2)}{0.69}[/tex]
[tex] t_{1/2} = 1.005 h[/tex]

I need help understanding this question, so I know the arrow is traveling 80 meters per second, but it was launched from a starting point of 32 meters. I know for a fact an arrow does not have any thrust left at around 3 seconds of being in the air.
I just need someone to explain the questions and provide an answer to each.
Answer:
a) h(g) = 358,53 m
b) t = 8,16 s
c) t(t) = 16,71 s
Explanation:
Equations for vertical shooting are:
Vf = V₀ - g * t ; h = V₀*t - (1/2)*g*t² ; Vf² = V₀² - 2*g*h
And at maximum heigt Vf = 0 then
0 = V₀ - g * t
t = V₀/g V₀ = 80 m/s and g = 9,8 m/s²
t = 80 / 9,8 (s)
t = 8,16 s
Then 8,16 s is the time to get maximum height
If we plug t = 8,16 (s) in equation h = V₀*t - (1/2)*g*t²
we get: h (max) = (80)*8,16 - 0,5*9,8*(8,16)² (m)
h (max) = 652,8 - 326,27 m
h (max) = 326,53 m
Then relative to ground that height becomes
h(g) = 326,53 + 32
h(g) = 358,53 m
In order to get the time the arrow is in the air we proceed as follows:
a) for the arrow to be at the launched point will take the same time that from the launched point to the maximum height, and after that we have to find out the time the arrow takes from 32 m down to the ground level
Then
t(t) = 8,16 + 8,16 + tₓ (2)
Where tₓ is the time from 32 m height to ground
h = V₀*tₓ - (1/2)*g*tₓ² but since the arrow now is going down then we change the sign of the second term on the right side of the equation
32 = (80)*tₓ + 0,5 * 9,8 * tₓ² Note that when the arrow is at 32 m height the speed is again V₀ = 80 m/s
32 = 80*tₓ + 4,9*tₓ²
A second-degree equation for tₓ, solving it
4,9*tₓ² + 80*tₓ - 32 = 0
t₁,₂ = -80 ± √ 6400 + 627,2 / 9,8
t₁,₂ =( - 80 ± 83,8 ) / 9,8
there is not a negative time therefore we dismiss such solution and
t₁ = 3,8 / 9,8
t₁ = 0,39 s
And
t(t) = 8,16 + 8,16 + 0,39 s
t(t) = 16,71 s

Answer:
v=59[m/s]
Explanation:
To solve this problem we must use the principle of conservation of energy, which tells us that energy is transformed from Kinetic to potential or vice versa. At the moment when the car is at the top before falling down the cliff, we have the car moving at speed 50 [m/s] (kinetic energy) also it is 50 [m] above ground level (potential energy).
[tex]E_{k1}+E_{p1}=E_{k2}\\[/tex]
where:
Ek1 = kinetic energy before falling [J]
Ep1 = potential energy before falling [J]
Ek2 = kinetic energy in the ground [J]
The potential energy can be calculated by means of the following equation.
[tex]E_{p}=m*g*h[/tex]
where:
m = mass = 500 [kg]
g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]
h = elevation = 50 [m]
Whereas the kinetic energy can be calculated by means of the following equation.
[tex]E_{k}=\frac{1}{2}*m*v^{2}[/tex]
where:
v = velocity = 50 [m/s]
Now replacing in the general equation:
[tex]\frac{1}{2} *500*(50)^{2} +500*9.81*50=\frac{1}{2} *500*v^{2}\\625000+245250=250*v^{2} \\250*v^{2} =870250\\v=\sqrt{870250/250} \\v=59[m/s][/tex]

A) 2.650 km
B) 3,190 km
C) 9.020 km
D) 12.700 km
Answer:
A) 2.650 km
Explanation:
The relationship between acceleration of gravity and gravitational constant is:
[tex]g = \frac{Gm}{R^2}[/tex] ---- (1)
Where
[tex]R = 6,400 km[/tex] -- Radius of the earth.
From the question, we understand that the gravitational field of the rocket is 50% of its original value.
This means that:
[tex]g_{rocket} = 50\% * g[/tex]
[tex]g_{rocket} = 0.50 * g[/tex]
[tex]g_{rocket} = 0.5g[/tex]
For the rocket, we have:
[tex]g_{rocket} = \frac{Gm}{r^2}[/tex]
Where r represent the distance between the rocket and the center of the earth.
Substitute 0.5g for g rocket
[tex]0.5g = \frac{Gm}{r^2}[/tex] --- (2)
Divide (1) by (2)
[tex]\frac{g}{0.5g} = \frac{Gm}{R^2}/\frac{Gm}{r^2}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{g}{0.5g} = \frac{Gm}{R^2}*\frac{r^2}{Gm}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{0.5} = \frac{1}{R^2}*\frac{r^2}{1}[/tex]
[tex]2 = \frac{r^2}{R^2}[/tex]
Take square root of both sides
[tex]\sqrt 2 = \frac{r}{R}[/tex]
Make r the subject
[tex]r = R * \sqrt 2[/tex]
Substitute [tex]R = 6,400 km[/tex]
[tex]r = 6400km * \sqrt 2[/tex]
[tex]r = 6400km * 1.414[/tex]
[tex]r = 9 049.6\ km[/tex]
The distance (d) from the earth surface is calculated as thus;
[tex]d = r - R[/tex]
[tex]d = 9049.6\ km - 6400\ km[/tex]
[tex]d = 2649.6\ km[/tex]
[tex]d = 2650\ km[/tex] --- approximated

A statement of the second law of thermodynamics is that:__________.
a) spontaneous reactions are always exothermic.
b) energy is conserved in a chemical reaction that has a decrease in entropy.
c) spontaneous reactions are always endothermic.
d) in a spontaneous process, the entropy of the universe increases.
Answer:
in a spontaneous process, the entropy of the universe increases.
Explanation:
Entropy is a measure of of the degree of randomness or disorderliness in a system.
The second law of thermodynamics can be stated as follows; "in any spontaneous process, the entropy of the universe increases."
The universe here refers to the system's disorder and the disorder of the surroundings. Therefore, a spontaneous process can occur, in which the entropy of the system decreases, only if the entropy increases in the surroundings.
For instance, when ice freezes, the entropy of liquid water decreases, that is, the entropy of the system decreases. However, heat is given off to the surroundings and the entropy of the surroundings increases. This is an obvious expression of this law.

Explanation:
Vectors in 3D
Given a vector
[tex]\vec P = P_x\hat i+P_y\hat j+P_z\hat k[/tex]
A vector [tex]\vec Q[/tex] parallel to [tex]\vec P[/tex] is:
[tex]\vec Q = k.\vec P[/tex]
Where k is any constant different from zero.
We are given the vectors:
[tex]\vec A = \hat i+4\hat j-2\hat k[/tex]
[tex]\vec B = 3\hat i-5\hat j+\hat k[/tex]
It's not specified what the 'resultant' is about, we'll assume it's the result of the sum of both vectors, thus:
[tex]\vec A +\vec B = \hat i+4\hat j-2\hat k + 3\hat i-5\hat j+\hat k[/tex]
Adding each component separately:
[tex]\vec A +\vec B = 4\hat i-\hat j-\hat k[/tex]
To find a vector parallel to the sum, we select k=2:
[tex]2(\vec A +\vec B )= 8\hat i-2\hat j-2\hat k[/tex]
Thus one vector parallel to the resultant of both vectors is:
[tex]\mathbf{8\hat i-2\hat j-2\hat k}[/tex]

A 200-N object floats with three-fourths of its volume beneath the surface of the water. What is the buoyant force on the object?
Answer:
Buoyant Force = 200N
Explanation:
Given
[tex]Object = 200N[/tex]
Required
Determine the buoyant force?
Using Archimedes principle:
When an object is immersed in a fluid, the object is acted upon on by an upward force (Buoyant force) which equals the weight of the object.
In other words;
Buoyant Force = Weight of object
Hence:
Buoyant Force = 200N
The buoyant force on the object which floats with three-fourths of its volume beneath the surface of the water is 200 N.
What is the buoyant force?The buoyant force is the force which is applied by the fluid in the upward direction when a object is placed over it. This buoyant force can be calculated with the following formula.
[tex]F_b=-\rho gV[/tex]
Here, (ρ) is the density of the fluid, (g) is the gravitation force and (V) is the fluid volume.
The buoyant force is equal to the weight of the liquid displace by the object which is placed on it.
It is given that the 200-N object floats with three-fourths of its volume beneath the surface of the water.
This force applied on the object balance the 200-N object and floats it. For this case, the value of buoyant force will be equal to the weight of the object.
[tex]F_b=W\\F_b=200\rm\; N[/tex]
Thus, the buoyant force on the object which floats with three-fourths of its volume beneath the surface of the water is 200 N.
