Remember that the amount you have left will be cut in half every 50 days.

Day 0: 200g
Day 50: 100g
Day 100: 50g
Day 150: 25g
Day 200: 12.5g
Day 250: 6.25g
Day 300: 3.125g
Day 350: 1.5625g
Day 400: 0.78125g
Day 450: 0.390625g
Day 500: 0.1953125g
Day 550: 0.09765625g
Day 600: 0.048828125g

So after 600 days you will have about 0.048828125 grams (48.828125 mg) left.

The ratio of mass remaining in going from 800 g to 200 g is 0.25. By inspection, this is two half-lives. Remember that at the first, second, third, and fourth half-life, you have 0.5, 0.25, 0.125, and 0.0625 of the original material left. This means the half life is 2.0 years.

Formally, the equation for half-life is ...

AT = A0 2(-T/H)

... Where A0 is the original activity, AT is the activity after some time T, and H is the half-life in units of T.

If 25 grams remains out of 200 grams, then that is 0.125 of the original mass. By inspection, you can see that this is three half-lives1, so the half-life must be 11.46 / 3, or 3.82 days.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1One half life is 0.5, two is 0.25, and three is 0.125, as the portion of material remaining.

200gram per15 centimeters sq convert it into 200gram per centimeters square?

The following conversions are into grams per square centimeters: If your "15 cm sq" a square with 15 cm on a side (225 cm2) then: 200/225 = 0.888... g/cm2If your "15 cm sq" a square with 15 cm2 (about 3.87 cm on a side) then:200/15 = 13.33... g/cm2But your question asks "... into 200gram per cm square" which is a mathematicaly legitimate , if unorhtodox, question as if you had a container with 200 grams of stuff and you wanted to know how much of the container would be put on every square centimeter given the "200gram per15 cm sq" condition.The following conversions are into 200 grams per square centimeters:If your "15 cm sq" a square with 15 cm on a side (225 cm2) then: 1/225 = 0.00444...

How can you make your shrunken testicle bigger again?

It is a fact that eating nuts, especially Cashew nuts make them bigger. I know this because I often eat a 200gram pack of Cashews and I can see a massive difference in as little as 3-4 hours and it lasts about 3 days. Also, they let you ejaculate like a bull!

How many milliliters is 200gram?

First note that there are 1,000 millilitres in a litre. This means that to convert from millilitres into litres you have to divide by 1,000. In this case you do: 200/1,000 = 0.2 Therefore there are 0.2 litres in 200 millilitres.


What is the final temperature of the mixture if 100gram of water at 70temperature is added to 200gram of cold water at 10temperature and well stirred?

I'll assume here that by "70 temperature" you mean "70 degrees Celsius". Basically, you have to calculate the average temperature of all of the water in the mixture, which will be the final temperature once it's well stirred. The 200 grams of water at 10 degrees represent 2/3 of the total amount of water (300 grams), so thus, multiply 10 by 2/3 to determine their contribution to the final temperature. You will get 20/3. The 100 grams of water at 70 degrees represent 1/3 of the total amount of water, so multiply 70 by 1/3 to determine their contribution to the final temperature. You will get 70/3. When you add together the two temperatures you get 90/3, which is equal to 30. Therefore, the final temperature is 30 degrees Celsius.
