3. Carbon 14 an isotope of carbon is radioactive and decays at a rate proportional
to the amount present. its half life is 5730 years
That means it takes 5730 years for a given amount of carbon 14 to decay to one-
half its original size. if there were 10g present originally. How much would be
left after 2000 years
Suppose the half-life of a certain radioactive substance is 20 days and that there are5 grams present initially. When will there be only 1 gram of the substance remaining?
A museum contains a large pendulum. Due to air resistance and friction, each swing of the pendulum is a little shorter than the previous one. Suppose the first swing of the pendulum has a length of 25,000 mm and each return swing loses 4% of its length until eventually the pendulum comes to a complete stop. Answer parts A, B, C, and D and if necessary, round to the nearest tenth of a millimeter.
A. Let 'n' be defined as the number of swings the pendulum travels. Define 'a1' and 'r' (these are used in the explicit formula.) Write a geometric sequence in summation (Sigma) notation to express the total distance that the pendulum will have traveled after 30 swings. Sigma notation will have a lower limit, an upper limit, and an explicit formula. Do not compute the sum.
B. Use the summation formula to find the total distance the pendulum swings.
C. Using information from part A, write a geometric series in summation (Sigma) notation to express the total distance that the pendulum will have…
