Product Information

Many light sources produce a continuous spectrum containing all the wavelengths of visible light, e.g. an ordinary light bulb. Use the formula to find the number of half lives (this will be the number of arrows) No. of t ½ = time÷ t½ Now you’ve finished the dynamics & space unit, try some past paper questions from old credit & intermediate 2 exam papers. The activity of a source drops from 4800 kBq to 150 kBq in 10 days. Calculate the half life of the source. If you’ve read all that stuff on forces, take a break to watch the Glesga Physics Newton’s Laws video

You should now have had plenty of practice at finding the half life graphically, nothing should phase you now.

Additional question papers resources

Some light sources emit only some wavelengths. They produce a line spectrum. Each line corresponds to a particular wavelength. OR: Using your knowledge of physics, explain how NASA might know that the probe has now left our Solar System. Apparatus: Geiger-Muller tube, Scaler counter or ratemeter, Source (eg.sealed protactinium-234 radioactive source and drip tray).

Can you use the kinetic theory of gases to describe the pressure-temperature, pressure-volume or volume-temperature relationships? If you are having difficulties with this, try reading this blog post. Here are three more examples for you to practice producing a half life graph and for finding the half life of Protactinium Example 1: The events will focus on the Physics coursework that is returning for session 2023-24. They are mainly aimed at teachers and lecturers who are delivering the coursework for the first time.My thanks to J Boyle for passing these on. They are really good practice for students to use for revision for N4/5 etc. Thanks to Iain Glennie for some of the early answers (it’s not because I couldn’t do them), he just got there first! CREDIT PAPERS Paper colour temperature line spectra summary of the information we can get from the light received from any star (surface temperature of the star, what the start is made of, etc.)

half life Questions A print out for those who would like a copy of the National 5 Chemcord revision questions on half life. Here are the questions written out: HALF LIFE QUESTIONS The activity of a radioactive source decreases time. However the rate of decrease slows with time. Because of this, and because the decay of individual atoms is random and unpredictable, theoretically a radioactive source will never completely lose all of its activity. The time taken for half of the atoms in a radioactive sample to decay is a constant for that source called the half-life of the source. So the half-life of a radioactive source is the time period during which the activity of the source falls to half of its original value. The half-life of some sources is as low as a fraction of a second; for others it is many thousands of years. In six years, the activity of a radioactive isotope drops from 200 kBq to 25kBq. Calculate the half-life of the isotope.

There are many parts of space that are detected by different types of telescope. Use your knowledge of physics to describe one telescope that is used in astronomy. Dominant member of a solar system accounts 99% of the mass of the solar system. The sun is a giant star it produces heat and light. A big ball of plasma
