Answer 1

Answer:

the action or process of moving or being moved.

"the laws of planetary motion"

Answer 2

Answer:

activity of radioactive substance at any time t is given by

⇒N=N

0

e

−λt

given that

N

0

N

=

16

at time t=40days

⇒

=e

−40λ

⇒e

40λ

=16

⇒λ=

40

ln16

we know that

t

1

=

λ

ln2

after putting the value of λ in above equation

⇒t
