Question 1 ( point) A 64g sample of Germanium-66 is left undisturbed for 12.5 hours. At the end of that period, only 2.0g remain. How many half-lives transpired during this time period? half-lives Answer = Blank 1:​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

2.5 half-lives

Step-by-step explanation:

Find [tex]t_{h}[/tex] in [tex]N(t)=N_{0}e^{-kt}[/tex] given [tex]N(t) = 2, N_{0} =64,t=\frac{25}{2}[/tex]

[tex]N(t)[/tex] is the amount after the time [tex]t[/tex], [tex]N_0[/tex] `is the initial amount, [tex]t_{h}[/tex] is the half-life

We know that after half-life there will be twice less the initial quantity:

[tex]N(t_{h})=\frac{N_{0} }{2}=N_{0}e^{kt_{h} }[/tex].

Simplifying gives [tex]\frac{1}{2} =e^{-kt_h} or k = -\frac{In(\frac{1}{2}) }{t_{h} } .[/tex]

Plugging this into the initial equation, we obtain that [tex]N(t)=N_{0}e^\frac{In(\frac{1}{2}) }{t_{h} }[/tex]or [tex]N(t)= N_{0} (\frac{1}{2})^\frac{t}{t_h}.[/tex]

Finally, just plug in the given values and find the unknown one.

From [tex]2=64(\frac{1}{2})^\frac{\frac{25}{2} }{t_h}[/tex], we have that [tex]t_h[/tex] = [tex]\frac{25 In (2)}{2 In (32)\\}[/tex]

So you should get: [tex]t_{h} =\frac{25 In (2)}{2 In (32)\\}=2.5.[/tex]

Answer 2

The number of half-lives that transpired during this time period is equal to 2.5 hours.

Given the following data:

Time = 12.5 hours.

Initial mass = 64 grams.

Remaining mass = 2.0 grams.

How to determine the number of half-lives.

Mathematically, the amount of a radiocative element that is remaining after time (t-hours) is given by this formula:

[tex]ln(\frac{A}{A_0} )=ln(\frac{1}{2} )\frac{t}{H}[/tex]

Where:

A is the amount remaining.Ao is the initial amount.H is the half-life.t is the time.

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

ln(2/64) = ln(1/2) × 12.5/H

-3.466 = -0.693 × 12.5/H

H = 12.5 × -0.693/-3.466

H = 12.5 × 0.1999

H = 2.5 hours.

Tommy rides in a motorboat against a river current for 25 km. Then he returns to his starting point by floating down river on a raft. Tommy travels 10 hours less on the motorboat than on the raft. Find the speed of the river current if the speed of the motorboat in still water is 12 km/h.

Answers

The speed of current is [tex]\rm 2 \:km/h[/tex].

What is the relation between distance,speed and time?

The relationship between distance, time and speed can be presented as:

[tex]\begin{aligned} \rm Distance &= Speed \times Time\\\\Speed &= \dfrac{\rm Distance}{Time} \\\\\rm Time &= \dfrac{\rm Distance}{\rm Speed} \end[/tex]

Calculations:

Given:

[tex]\begin{aligned} \rm Distance\: traveled\: on\: motorboat &= 25\:km\\\rm Speed\:of\:motorboat\:in\:still\:water &= 12\:km/h \end[/tex]  

 

Let the speed of the current be [tex]\rm x[/tex]

 

The speed of the boat traveling against the current is [tex]{(12 -\rm x) km/h}[/tex]

 

Time spent on motorboat is 10 hours less than time spent on raft.

Therefore:

[tex]\rm \dfrac{25km}{x\:km/h} - \dfrac{25km}{(12 - x)km/h} = 10[/tex]


The equation obtained will be:

[tex]\dfrac{25}{\rm x} - \dfrac{25}{(12-\rm x)} - = 10[/tex]

 

Multiplying both sides of the equation by [tex]\rm x(12 - x )[/tex]

[tex]\begin{aligned} \rm 25(12 - x) - 25x &= 10\times \rm x(12 - x)\\\\300 - 25x - 25x &= 120x - 10x^2\\\\300 - 50x &= 120x - 10x^2\\\\10x^2 - 120x - 50x + 300 &= 0\\\\10x^2 - 170x +300 &= 0\end[/tex]

Dividing the equation by 10

[tex]\rm x^2 - 17x + 30 = 0[/tex]

On factoring the equation,

[tex]\rm =x^2 - 2x -15x + 30 = 0\\\\=x(x - 2) -15(x - 2)\\\\=(x - 2)(x - 15)[/tex]

The values of x is 2 and 15.

Since speed of current i.e  [tex](12 -\rm x)km/h[/tex] cannot be negative, [tex]\rm x = 2[/tex] is the only acceptable value.

 Therefore the speed of current is 2 km/h.

C x -2, 0, 2
y -8, 0, 8

D x -2, 0, 2
y -10, -2, 6

Answers

Answer: Choice D

==========================================================

Explanation:

If you plug in x = -2, then,

y = 4x-2

y = 4(-2)-2

y = -8-2

y = -10

This shows that the answer must be choice D, as this is the only answer that has x = -2 lead to y = -10. Note the first column of table D.

We could stop here if you wanted.

----------------------

If we kept going and plugged in x = 0, then,

y = 4x-2

y = 4(0)-2

y = 0-2

y = -2

We have x = 0 lead to y = -2. This matches with the second column of table D.

-----------------------

Lastly, if we plugged in x = 2, then we get,

y = 4x-2

y = 4(2)-2

y = 8-2

y = 6

So the third column of table D is also confirmed.
