A. What was your hypothesis? According to your data, do you think your hypothesis was correct? b. What is a half-life?
c. When does a radioactive sample emit the largest number of decay particles? Why is this information important? (How can it be applied in our world today?)
d. Do you think the shape of the curve on your graph would change if you increased the half-life to 20 seconds? What does this reveal about radioactive decay?
e. Do you think the shape of the curve on your graph would change if you started with a smaller sample, say 50 atoms (pennies)? What does this reveal about radioactive decay?

The electric field between square plates of a parallel-plate capacitor has magnitude e. the potential across the plates is maintained with constant voltage by a battery as they are pulled apart to twice their original separation, which is small compared to the dimensions of the plates. the magnitude of the electric field between the plates is now equal to a)e b)e/4 c)e/2 d)4e e)2e

Aleaky 10-kg bucket is lifted from the ground to a height of 15 m at a constant speed with a rope that weighs 0.7 kg/m. initially the bucket contains 45 kg of water, but the water leaks at a constant rate and finishes draining just as the bucket reaches the 15-m level. find the work done. (use 9.8 m/s2 for g.) show how to approximate the required work by a riemann sum. (let x be the height in meters above the ground. enter xi* as xi.) lim n → ∞ n (9.8)(45−3 xi) i = 1 δx express the work as an integral. 0 dx evaluate the integral. (round your answer to the nearest integer.) j
