Base on my research, within 2 hours you have a number of atoms which remain. 
N= N0*2^(-t/6.020 = N= N0*2^-0.33223= 07943 N0

So, the number of atoms that are being disintegrated is N0-N=N0*(1-0.79430)=0.2057 N0

It must be equal to 15 mCi = 15*3.7*10^7= 5.55*10^8 atoms 

N0= 5.55*10*8/0.2057  = 2.698*10^9 atoms

Therefore, 2.698*10^9 atoms is the number of N0

In a certain region of space, a uniform electric field has a magnitude of 4.30 x 104 n/c and points in the positive x direction.
denis23 [38]
The magnetic force exerted by a field E to a charge q is given by F=Eq. In this case, F=4.30*10^4*(6.80mu C). 1mu C=10^-6C, so F=4.30*6.80=10^-2=0.29N. The direction is in the x direction, the direction that the field is applied because the charge is positive.

Two circular rods, one steel and the other copper, are joined end to end. Each rod is 0.750 m long and 1.50 cm in diameter. The
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

(a) Steel rod: 1.1 * 10^{-4}

    Copper rod: 1.88 * 10^{-4}

(b) Steel rod: 8.3 * 10^{-5} m

Copper rod: 1.41 * 10^{-4} m

Explanation:

Length of each rod = 0.75 m

Diameter of each rod = 1.50 cm = 0.015 m

Tensile force exerted = 4000 N

(a) Strain is given as the ratio of change in length to the original length of a body. Mathematically, it is given as

Strain = \frac{1}{Y} * \frac{F}{A}

where Y = Young modulus

F = Fore applied

A = Cross sectional area

For the steel rod:

Y =  200 000 000 000 N/m^{2}

F = 4000N

A = \pi r^{2}      (r = d/2 = 0.015/2 = 0.0075 m)

=> A = \pi * (0.0075)^{2}

=> A = 0.000177 m^{2}

∴ Strain = \frac{4000}{200000000000 * 0.000177} \\\\Strain = \frac{4000}{35400000}\\ \\Strain = 0.000113 = 1.13 * 10^{-4}

For the copper rod:

Y =  120 000 000 000 N/m²

F = 4000N

A = \pi r^{2}      (r = d/2 = 0.015/2 = 0.0075 m)

=> A = \pi * (0.0075)^{2}

=> A = 0.000177 m^{2}

Strain = \frac{4000}{120 000 000 000 * 0.000177} \\\\Strain = \frac{4000}{21240000}\\ \\Strain =  = 1.88 * 10^{-4}

(b) We can find the elongation by multiplying the Strain by the original length of the rods:

Elongation = Strain * Length

For the steel rod:

Elongation = 1.1 * 10^{-4} * 0.75 = 8.3 * 10^{-5} m

For the copper rod:

Elongation = 1.88 * 10^{-4} * 0.75 = 1.41 * 10^{-4} m

At room temperature what is the strength of the electric field in a 12-gauge copper wire (diameter 2.05 mm that is needed to cau
Dima020 [189]
Electric field strength = resistivity of copper x current density
where
p= 1.72 x 10^-8 <span>ohm meter
diameter = 2.05mm=.00205 m
current = 2.75 A
</span>get first the current density:
current density = current/ cross section area
find the cross section area
cross section area = pi.(d/2)^2;  
cross section = 3.3 006x10-6 m^2
substitute the values 
current density = 2.75A/3.3006x 10-6m^2
current density=35.55 x1 0^2 A/m^2
Electric field stregnth =1.72 x 10^-8 ohm meter x 35.55 x10^2 A/m^2
Electric field stregnth= 46.415 Volts/m

The electric field strength of copper is 46.415 V/m.

Resistance of rod is 1 ohm. It is bent in the form of square. The resistance across adjoint corners is.​
nirvana33 [79]

Answer: The answer to the question is 0.25 ohms

Explanation:

R = u x/A .......1

where u is chosen as the resistivity of

the rod, A is area of the rod and x is

chosen as the length of the rod.

Let R* be the resistance of the

lengths of the rod across the adjoints

Then R* = u1/4.......2

Comparing equation 1 and 2

R* = 1/4

=0.25ohms
