What is the length of decay of carbon-14?
a.
A couple days
b.
A couple hours
c.
A couple seconds
d.
A few thousand years
Answer:
My answer will be (D) . A few thousand years
Explanation:
Carbon-14 is a radioactive isotope of carbon, containing 6 protons and 8 neutrons, that is present in the earth's atmosphere in extremely low concentrations.2
It is naturally produced in the atmosphere by cosmic rays (and also artificially by nuclear weapons), and continually decays via nuclear processes into stable nitrogen atoms.
Suppose we have a sample of a substance containing some carbon-14. Let m be the mass of carbon-14 in nanograms after t years. 3
It turns out that, if the sample is isolated, then m and t approximately 4 satisfy the differential equation
dmdt=−0.000121m.
Suppose our sample initially contains 100 nanograms of carbon-14. Let's investigate what happens to the sample over time.
First, we can solve the differential equation. Since m has a continuous decay rate of −0.000121, a general solution to the differential equation is
m(t)=Ce−0.000121t,
where C is a constant. Substituting the initial condition t=0, m=100 gives C=100, so
m(t)=100e−0.000121t.
With this formula, we can calculate the amount m of carbon-14 over the years.
Mass of carbon-14 in sample
t (years) m (ng to 4 decimal places)
0 100.0000
100 98.7973
1000 88.6034
2000 78.5056
5000 54.6074
10 000 29.8197
20 000 8.8922
Every year, the mass m of carbon-14 is multiplied by e−0.000121≈0.999879. After 100 years, 98.7973 nanograms still remain. After 1000 years, we still have 88.6034 nanograms. But after 5000 years, however, almost half of the carbon-14 has decayed.
Graph showing the decay of 100 nanograms of Carbon-14.
Detailed description
half-life of carbon-14
Example
How long does it take for precisely half of the carbon-14 in the sample to decay; that is, when does m=50? Give the answer to three significant figures.
Solution
The mass of carbon-14 in our sample is given by
m(t)=100e−0.000121t.
So we solve 50=100e−0.000121t, which gives e−0.000121t=12. Hence,
t=loge12−0.000121≈5730 years (to three significant figures).
The time period calculated in this example is called the half-life of carbon-14. In fact over any period of 5730 years, the amount of carbon-14 in an isolated sample will decay by half. This fact is used in radiocarbon dating to determine the age of fossils up to 60 000 years old. Roughly speaking, while an organism is alive, its interactions with its environment maintain a constant ratio of carbon-14 to carbon-12 in the organism; but after it dies, the carbon-14 is no longer replenished, and the ratio of carbon-14 to carbon-12 decays in a predictable way. (See Wikipedia Open new window for more on radiocarbon dating.)
Exercise 1
Explain why the mass of carbon-14 in the sample is given (approximately) by
m(t)=100(12)t5730,
and hence explain why the amount of carbon-14 in the sample decays by half over any period of 5730 years.
Half-life in general
In general, whenever a quantity x(t) obeys an exponential decay equation
x(t)=Cekt,
where the continuous decay rate k is negative, then the quantity x has a half-life T. After any time period of length T, the quantity x decreases by half. Let us see why.
As k is negative, the factor ekt decreases from 1 (at t=0) towards 0 (as t approaches ∞). Therefore there is a time t=T such that
ekT=12.
We now solve for T and obtain
kT=loge12=−loge2,
so
T=−1kloge2.
This T is the half-life. From time t=0 to time t=T, the factor ekt decreases from e0=1 to ekT=12, that is, decreases by half. Similarly, over any time period of length T, the term ekt decreases by half. 5
Note that, when k=−0.000121, we obtain T=5730, in agreement with our calculation for carbon-14.

A 1 kg block with initial velocity 4 m/s collides elastically with a stationary 2 kg block. After the collision, the 1 kg block has a velocity of -1.33 m/s. Determine the speed of the 2 kg block after the collision.
Answer:
v₂ = 2,665 m / s
Explanation:
This is an exercise of conservation of the momentum, we define a system formed by the two cars, so that the forces during the collision are internal and the moment is conserved.
Initial instant. Before the crash
p₀ = m v_o
Final moment. Right after the crash
p_f = m v₁ + M v₂
where the first car uses subscript 1 and has a mass m = 1 kg and the second car uses the subscript 2 with a mass M = 2kg
how the moment is preserved
p₀ = p_f
m v_o = m v₁ + M v₂
They indicate that the collision is elastic, therefore the kinetic energy is conserved, the velocity of the first car is v1 = -1.33 me / S
v₂ = [tex]\frac{ m ( v_o - v_1)}{M}[/tex]
we calculate
v₂ = [tex]\frac{ 1 ( 4 + 1.33)}{2}[/tex]
v₂ = 2,665 m / s
how high is the pole from which the lamp fell freely if it hits the ground at a speed of 15 m/s
Answer & Explanation:
The acceleration due to gravity is about 10 m/s^2.
That means a the speed of a falling object will increase by 10 m/s every second that it falls.
We know that the lamp hits the ground at 15 m/s.
That means the lamp has been falling for
[tex]\frac{15 m/s}{10 m/s^{2} } = 1.5 s[/tex]
Now we use the formula [tex]h = \frac{1}{2} gt^{2}[/tex] to calculate the height, where
h is the height
g is the acceleration due to gravity and
t is the time taken to fall a height of h.
h = 1/2 x 10 x 1.5^2 = 11.25 m

What is the charge on an object that experiences a force of 5 Newtons in an electric field of 50 Newtons per coulomb?
Answer:
Explanation:
F = qE
F is the force in Newtons
q is the test charge
E is the electrical field produced by the source charge
[tex]5=q(50)\\q=1*10^-^1Coulombs[/tex]
The magnitude of charge on the object is of 0.1 C.
Given Data:
The magnitude of electric field is, E = 50 N/C.
The magnitude of Electric force is, F = 5 N.
The region where any particle feels the effect of electric force on itself, due to other charged entities, is known as Electric field. And the relation between the electric force and electric field is given as,
F = E × q
Here,
q is the magnitude of charge on the object.
Solving as,
q = F/E
q = 5 / 50
q = 0.1 C
Thus, we can conclude that the magnitude of charge on the object is of 0.1 C.
