A half hot outlet is an electrical outlet where one half is always powered and the other half can be controlled by a switch. To install a half hot outlet in a residential setting, you would need to first identify the outlet you want to convert, then rewire it so that one half is always on and the other half is controlled by a switch. This can be done by connecting the switched wire to the outlet's hot terminal and the always-on wire to the outlet's neutral terminal. It's important to follow proper safety precautions and consult a professional electrician if needed.

How can I convert a regular outlet into a half switched outlet?
To convert a regular outlet into a half switched outlet, you will need to rewire the outlet so that one half is controlled by a switch while the other half remains always on. This involves identifying the hot and neutral wires, disconnecting the tab connecting the two outlets, and connecting the switched wire to one outlet and the always-on wire to the other. It is recommended to consult a licensed electrician for this task to ensure safety and compliance with electrical codes.
Can you change a two prong outlet to a one prong and one switch outlet?
This answer will be treated cautiously because your question shows a lack of knowledge of residential electrical systems. By "two prong", you are probably referring to a duplex electrical outlet, the standard "two-plug" arrangement found in North American homes, which is actually a 6-prong outlet - a live, neutral and ground "prong" on each of the two outlets. In any case, yes you can change one half of the outlet to "switched' without changing the other half. There is a connecting copper buss on each side of the duplex that connects the top half with the bottom half. This is designed in such a way that the buss can be clipped with electrical wire cutters (after ensuring that you have turned off the breaker or pulled the fuse to that circuit) to separate the two halves. You need only clip the "live" side, and can leave the neutral side connected. This will essentially allow you to feed each half with a separate supply, one of which can be live all the time, while the other half is switched. To wire up the switch, you will probably need a bit more knowledge.

How does the Half-life setting affect how quickly the simulated substance decays?
The half-life directly affects how quickly something decays. It is the amount of time for a substance to lose half of its material, so the lower the half-life time, the faster something decays.
