Chapter 30, Problem 11CQ
The material that formed the earth was created in a supernova explosion approximately 6 billion years ago. The two most common isotopes of uranium, 238U and 235U, were created in roughly equal amounts. Today, the earth contains more than 100 times as much 238U as 235U. Which isotope has a longer half-life?

The drawing shows an edge-on view of two planar surfaces that intersect and are mutually perpendicular. Surface (1) has
an area of 1.90 m², while surface (2) has an area of 3.90 m². The electric field in the drawing is uniform and has a
magnitude of 215 N/C. Find the magnitude of the electric flux through surface (1 and 2 combined) if the angle 8 made
between the electric field with surface (2) is 30.0°.

The hypotenuse,r, is 100cm (given) and a height, y, is 3.5 cm (given). How do I find the Angle θ1? And, for distance traveled, s, would all be 100cm? For my first observations I recorded four trials in seconds: 1 - 2.13s, 2 - 2.60s, 3 - 2.08s, & 4 - 1.95s. This would all go in the coloumn for time right? How do I solve for the experimental approximation of the acceleration? Help with trial 1 would be great so I can use that as a model for the other trials.

- The drawing in the image attached shows an edge-on view of two planar surfaces that intersect and are mutually perpendicular. Side 1 has an area of 1.90 m^2, Side 2 has an area of 3.90 m^2, the electric field in magnitude is around 215 N/C. Please find the electric flux magnitude through side 1 and 2 combined if the angle (theta) made between the electric field with side 2 is 30.0 degrees. I believe side 1 is 60 degrees but could be wrong. Thank you.arrow_forwardAfter the countdown at the beginning of a Mario Kart race, Bowser slams on the gas, taking off from rest.
