It is a sample in which the respondent decides whether or not to participate. A typical situation would be when a pile of questionnaires is left for people to fill in - if they like. Only those so inclined will do so.
20 full days 10 hours left
If you worked 4 out of 12 hours, then 8 out of 12 hours are left or 8/12 of the shift which is the same as 2/3 of the shift.
Yes
If a sample of radioactive material has a half-life of one week the original sample will have 50 percent of the original left at the end of the second week. The third week would be 25 percent of the sample. The fourth week would be 12.5 percent of the original sample.
After 132 hours, 1/4 of the initial sample of 10 Ci of Mo-99 would remain. Since the half-life is 66 hours, after 66 hours half of the sample would remain (5 Ci), and after another 66 hours (totaling 132 hours), half of that remaining amount would be left.
Hi, Each half-life means the mass of the sample has decreased by 1/2 its mass. Thus; After 1 half-life, 1/2 the sample has decayed. After 2 half-lives 3/4 of the sample has decayed. Hope this helps.
You can try acer.edu.au and then go to sample questions (which will be in the left of the page).
To determine the amount of potassium-42 left after 62.0 hours, we need to use the half-life of potassium-42 which is 12.4 hours. Calculate the number of half-lives that have passed (62.0 hours / 12.4 hours) = 5 half-lives. Each half-life halves the amount, so 1/2^5 = 1/32. Therefore, there will be 848 g * (1/32) = 26.5 g of potassium-42 left.
The half life of uranium is not one day. For an isotope with the half life or one day, after 3 days: the quantity remained is 12,5 %.

After 20 minutes, there have been 4 half-lives (20 min / 5 min per half-life). Each half-life reduces the sample by half, so the fraction of the sample left after 20 minutes is (1/2)^4, which is 1/16. Therefore, 1/16 of the original sample is left after 20 minutes.
I think you should resubmit this question as How long can you leave a sample in a desiccator? and it would help if you gave information about what sample you are putting in.
After 10.4 hours, there would be 1/2^4 = 1/16 (0.0625) mg of manganese-56 left in the sample due to radioactive decay. Therefore, the mass of manganese-56 remaining in a 1 mg sample after 10.4 hours would be 0.0625 mg.
