Why is the second hand on a clock called a second hand?
Because it counts seconds.
How do you calculate mi to the second power?
To be able to calculate a mi to the second power you need to
How long will it take to count to hundred?
The number of seconds it will take is(100)/(the average number of counts you make in one second)
How do you convert speed in meters per second?
so you calculate for one second howmuch meters do you pass and the number that you had is your speed on meters per second
How many Becquerel equals a milligram?
There can be no equivalenece. A becquerel is the SI derived unit of radioactivity. It is defined as the activity of a quantity of radioactive material in which one nucleus decays per second. It is a measure in inverse second, s-1 and so has dimensions [T-1]. A milligram is a measure of mass, whose dimension is [M]. The two have different dimensions and according to basic principles of dimensional analysis, conversion from one to the other is not valid.
What happens to radioactive materials if you do not use them?
That depends on the radioactive material. But whether you use it or not, the radioactive material will decay into other elements over the course of time. The time it takes for half of the material to decay into something else is called the "half-life". The more radioactive the substance is, the faster it decays. The half-life of a radioactive element can be measured from fractions of a second to billions of years.
What is the SI unit for quantity of radioactive materials?
The SI unit for quantity of radioactive materials is Becquerel.The becquerel (symbol Bq) is the SI-derived unit of radioactivity.One Bq is defined as the activity of a quantity of radioactive material in which one nucleus decays per second.

Why is the second hand on a clock called a second hand?
Because it counts seconds.
What is the percentage of radioactive nuclei left after 3 half lives have passed?
12.5%
A particular element has a half life of 27 days after 54 days have elapsed how much of the radioactive material is left?
In one cycle, the material would be reduced to one half of the original, leaving one half of the material. In the second cycle (54/27 = 2), there would be 1/2 of that half, leaving 1/4 of the original material.
What is a second timer?
A second timer is a device that counts time up or down by the second. Examples are a watch with a second hand and a stopwatch.
